CURT 1-7/8" Trailer Ball - 3/4" x 1-5/8" Shank - 2,000 lbs. - Chrome MPN: 40001

1-7/8" Trailer Ball - 3/4" x 1-5/8" Shank - 2,000 lbs. - Chrome

CURT 1-7/8" trailer balls are constructed from high-strength steel to match the towing power of class 1 or class 2 trailer hitch and ball mount and come with fine threads on the shank for improved holding strength. Having a trailer ball that matches the coupler size is essential. At CURT, the trailer balls are engineered to be precisely fitted. When CURT stamps 1-7/8" into the top of each hitch ball, CURT means 1-7/8".

This CURT tow ball features a ball capacity of 2,000 lbs. It can tow most utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, smaller livestock trailers, and some recreational vehicle haulers. (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component, i.e., the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc.) As with any trailer, be sure that the towing equipment can handle the load before hitching up. This trailer ball also features a 3/4" shank diameter, a 1-5/8" shank length, 0" of rise, and a nickel-chrome finish to protect against corrosion and wear. Like all CURT trailer balls, CURT's 1-7/8" balls are tested for users’ safety and meet all U.S. VESC specifications.
