20-Ton Pintle Hook with Mounting Kit
This 20-ton pintle hook is built for heavy-duty trailer, plow and towing equipment. The bolt-on design includes a mounting kit, drilling template and vehicle capacity decal for straightforward installation. It suits fleets and operators who need a reliable coupling rated for severe service.
40,000 lb Capacity with Four-Bolt Pattern
The hook handles a gross trailer weight of 40,000 lb and a tongue weight of 8,000 lb. Four mounting holes spaced 3 3/8 in horizontally and 1 3/4 in vertically with 5/8 in diameter bolts secure the unit to the vehicle frame. The powder-coated steel finish resists corrosion in harsh environments.
Replaces Lower-Rated Hooks for Heavy Loads
This unit replaces pintle hooks rated below 20 tons when gross weights approach 40,000 lb. The jump is worth it when existing hardware cannot meet the 8,000 lb tongue-weight demand or when a complete mounting kit simplifies the swap. It is not for applications that require a ball coupler or a lower-profile hitch.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 20 Ton pintle hook or a different capacity for my trailer?
The 10042 model is rated at 20 Ton gross trailer weight and 8,000 lb tongue weight; select it only if your loaded trailer and tongue load stay within those limits.
What does the 20 Ton rating mean when the hook is bolted to my truck?
It certifies a maximum gross trailer weight of 40,000 lb and a maximum tongue weight of 8,000 lb when mounted on a structure that can handle those forces.
How does the four-hole bolt pattern limit what I can tow?
The 3 3/8 in by 1 3/4 in hole spacing with 5/8 in diameter bolts fixes the mounting footprint, so the frame must match that pattern and be rated for the full 40,000 lb load.
