Questions about this item
What does the 5/8" diameter mean when the pin is through a hitch receiver?
The 5/8" diameter matches standard Class III and IV receiver holes so the pin passes cleanly through both walls without binding.
How does the Grade 5 rating affect shear strength in a towing setup?
Grade 5 steel provides the tensile strength needed for typical trailer loads while the red head allows quick visual confirmation that the pin is seated.
What clearance is needed around the red head for the clip to engage?
The oversized head sits flush against the receiver face leaving enough exposed shank for a standard hairpin clip to lock securely.
