CURT SecureLatch Pintle Hook with 2" Ball for 2" Receiver - 14,000 lbs
An integrated pintle-and-ball towing solution designed for fast coupling, automatic primary latch engagement, and quieter heavy-duty towing with lunette rings or standard 2" couplers.
Overview
The SecureLatch pintle ball and hook combination revolutionizes heavy-duty towing by making coupling as simple as "Strike, Drop, Auto-lock!" This integrated system features an automatic locking mechanism that secures the primary latch the moment the lunette ring or coupler is lowered into place. Designed for any industry-standard 2-inch receiver, it serves as a versatile, high-capacity connection point for both standard 2-inch ball couplers and heavy-duty lunette rings.
R&P Service Insight
This component is typically replaced due to wear, environmental exposure, or repeated load stress over time—not sudden failure.
- Wear: Austempered cast iron provides superior wear resistance, but locking mechanisms should be lubricated regularly.
- Exposure: The Battleship Grey finish protects against corrosion; however, salt and road debris can eventually affect the gold zinc hardware.
- Load Stress: Rated for 14,000 lbs, exceeding these limits can cause deformation of the receiver shank or hook throat.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Couples to standard 2" ball couplers or lunette rings with a 2-1/2" or 3" inside diameter.
Vehicle / System Fit: Fits all standard 2" x 2" trailer hitch receiver tube openings.
Installation Notes: The secondary safety pin must be manually installed after the auto-lock engages before towing begins.
Performance Insight: The unique cupped hook design reduces "chucking" by holding the lunette ring tighter than traditional flat-style pintle hooks.
