In agriculture, construction and even military applications, pintle hitches are the trusted product of specialized towing. They are notorious for their high weight capacity and simple design. The basic pintle hitch is essentially a hook and loop, with the hook attached to the vehicle and the loop mounted on the trailer. Because of their simple design, pintle hitches are able to have thicker metal construction and more secure coupling. CURT has a wide variety of pintle hitches and pintle-style products to give you a complete solution for your heavy-duty towing needs. This heavy-duty pintle hook features a gross trailer weight capacity of 60,000 lbs. and a vertical load capacity of 12,000 lbs. (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). It fits any lunette ring with a 2-1/2" or 3" inside eye diameter and comes with a safety pin for a secure latch. The heavyweight towing done with pintle hitches implies a certain amount of wear and tear on your towing equipment, and to prepare for this, CURT uses a quality finish on all our pintle mounts, lunette eyes and combination pintle hitches. This pintle hook is coated in a tough black carbide powder coat finish to provide the perfect amount of rust and scratch resistance needed to face the heavy-duty towing you do every day.

The screws they send you are very thick and you have to make the holes larger.

I ordered this for my brother in-law, he was super happy with it especially for the price. It was exactly as advertised. New hitch with a scratch on it for half the price

Bought this pintle hook from Curt since I have a Curt mounting plate. The description says it fits any mounting plate and comes with a bolt kit. Well the bolts are 5/8" and the mounting plate has 1/2" holes...so no it doesn't just fit. I guess its convenient they'll sell you an additional mounting kit with 1/2" hardware. Hope this helps someone else avoid the disappointment of finally getting it right before you need to use it and now can't.
