Towing product manufacturer CURT has introduced a new trailer coupler that it said replaces the traditional latch design.
The company said the CURT QuickPin trailer coupler is the first of its kind, engineered to answer the problem of complicated hinging components on a traditional latch-style coupler. Instead of a latch that is prone to rust and wear, QuickPin uses a single hitch pin to secure the coupler onto the ball. The simple pin design provides a secure vehicle-trailer connection while reducing stress, frustration and the time it takes to hook up a trailer.
The QuickPin coupler is currently available to fit standard 2-inch diameter balls, and it can be purchased in three different trailer tongue widths: 2”, 2-1/2” and 3”. To make installation easier, QuickPin also comes with pre-drilled holes to fit most existing bolt configurations.
