If you need a heavy-duty adjustable channel coupler that keeps pace with real trailer work, this one checks the boxes: 2-5/16" ball fit, 21,000 lb rating, USA-made construction, and Demco’s eZ-Latch mechanism for secure hookup and disconnect. The adjustable channel mount gives you height flexibility, while the powder-coated steel body and 500-hour salt spray rating make it a strong choice for utility, equipment, and marine-exposed applications.
