100mm Drop Tow Bar Receiver Hitch Kits 3.5t | Trailers, Caravans & Campers
A tow bar receiver hitch kit is a set of components that allow you to attach your trailer or caravan to your tow vehicle.
Couplemate™ Trailer Receivers are made from Solid Cast Iron, improving the connection strength between your trailer and tow vehicle.
Over time, cast steel products outperform fabricated/welded products. Welded ball mounts and hollow receivers can distort under off-road conditions and during highway shock-loading events. When inverted, hollow hitches are more prone to deformation.
Couplemate™ recommends using a solid cast receiver hitch for all off-road couplings. This includes:
Key Benefits
- Stronger connection between your trailer and tow vehicle.
- It can be safely inverted to obtain additional height.
- Long-lasting product that will withstand harsh towing conditions.
- Purchases directly support the Australian economy.
The Couplemate™ Trailer Receivers are one of the last trailer hitches on the market to be Australian-made. We cast the receiver shanks in Sydney and drill and machine them in our Brisbane warehouse.
What is a Tow Bar Receiver Hitch?
Your tow ball receiver is the bar on your tow vehicle that connects to your trailer coupling, usually via a tow ball or tow pin.
Hitches come in different towing capacities, so choosing the right one for your needs is crucial. Ensure that your trailer weight is not higher than your towbar rating (e.g., if your tow rating is 3.5t, then your hitch rating must also be 3.5t).
For more information on the different kinds of trailer hitches, read our article: “Choosing the Right Hitch: Guide to Tow Ball Receivers.”
