Tow with Confidence: ADR-Approved Short Adjustable Tow Hitch

The Couplemate™ CM529S is a Premium-Cast robust, shorter adjustable tow hitch, specifically engineered to be the most robust hitch on the Australian market. This adjustable hitch is designed to handle caravans and trailers up to a 3500kg ATM; this short adjustable tow hitch receiver kit is a versatile and reliable way to tow a trailer or caravan.

Adjustable short tow hitches allow you to have precise control over the height of your tow ball, which impacts the height of the drawbar when attached to the tow vehicle. This flexibility allows you to tow different trailers at different heights conveniently.

The ball mount head provides up to 90mm of drop and up to 190 mm of rise (centre of a tow ball to centre pin). This is particularly useful for towing applications, from low-boat trailers to high-set camper trailers.

How does this compare to other Adjustable Hitches on the market? Most other tow hitches have a 114mm Rise and a 90mm drop, measuring from the centre pin to the tow ball plate.

When measured this way, the Couplemate™ CM529 offers a 140mm rise and a 140mm drop.
