CURT (48406): SecureLatch Receiver-Mount Ball and Pintle Hitch
John Arnaud
Strike.
Drop. Auto-lock. With the SecureLatch from CURT, coupling
is an easy three-step process.
Integrated into the
SecureLatch pintle ball and hook combination is an automatic locking mechanism
that secures the primary latch without any manual coupling required. Simply
back your vehicle up to the lunette ring or coupler (the built-in striker plate
helps stop and center the lunette ring), drop the ring down onto the ball and
hook, and let the auto-locking latch do the rest! All you have to do after that
is install the secondary safety pin.
By
giving the SecureLatch a cupped design, CURT made it
unique from other pintle hooks: instead of letting the ring slop with every
acceleration, brake, and bump, the cupped hook holds the ring tighter fore and
aft—resulting in smoother, quieter heavy-duty towing.
This
SecureLatch ball and pintle combination is rated for 14,000 pounds gross
trailer weight and ball capacity. It couples to a 2 5/16” coupler or a lunette
ring with a 2 1/2” or 3” inside diameter and fits into any industry-standard 2”
receiver. Its cast-iron construction features a premium dark-gray teridium
powdercoat and is austempered for superior strength and wear resistance.
