Fastway Flash Scale Hitch Adjustable 6" Drop 2" Shank Tongue Weight

Part Number: 48-00-8600

The FLASH SCALE removes guesswork from towing by showing your tongue weight as you hitch. No separate tools—just real-time feedback, safer balance, and confidence every time you load.

Tow Balanced — Not Blind

Most towing setups rely on estimates or separate scale tools to confirm tongue weight. The FLASH SCALE changes that by integrating a mechanical scale directly into the mount—giving you instant, repeatable feedback every time you connect your trailer.

Is this the right model?

Choose the 48-00-8600 if you want to actively monitor tongue weight and dial in safer towing without external tools.

If you don’t need weight feedback, a FLASH Secure model provides similar adjustability with built-in locking instead.

R&P Knowledge Hub

Why Tongue Weight Matters: Proper balance (10–15% of trailer weight) reduces sway, improves braking, and protects suspension components.

Real Advantage: The built-in scale eliminates separate tools—making every hookup repeatable and consistent.

Use Case: Ideal for users who regularly change loads or want maximum towing control.
