Overview
The Brophy PH10 is a 10 ton bolt-on pintle hook rated for 20,000 lb gross towing capacity and 4,000 lb tongue weight. Pintle hooks are commonly used with lunette ring trailer couplers where heavy-duty articulation, rough-terrain use, or commercial towing strength is needed. This hook uses drop-forged construction with a black powder coat finish and a spring-loaded lock arm for secure coupling with compatible lunette eyes.
R&P Service Insight
Before installing a pintle hook, confirm the full towing system rating. The hook rating alone does not determine safe towing capacity.
- Mounting Surface: The plate or hitch mount must be rated for both the 20,000 lb gross towing capacity and 4,000 lb vertical load.
- Fasteners: Use properly rated hardware and torque to the applicable specification for the mounting setup.
- Lunette Match: Confirm the trailer lunette eye size and condition before towing.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Designed for pintle-style towing applications using a compatible lunette ring and a properly rated bolt-on mounting surface.

Installation Notes: Verify the 1-3/4" x 3-3/8" mounting bolt pattern, mounting plate capacity, fastener rating, and trailer lunette eye size before installation.
