70mm Tow Ball - 4500kg (4.5t) - ADR Approved
Introducing the impressive Couplemate™ CM296 70mm Tow Ball, Australian-Made and expertly crafted from solid steel.
It has a diameter of 70mm, which is slightly larger than the more common 50mm tow ball.
The larger diameter provides a larger surface area for the trailer hitch to grip, which helps to prevent the trailer from swaying or fishtailing.
70mm tow balls are typically rated for a 3,500kg to 5000kg towing capacity. The exact rating will depend on the make and model of the tow ball.
Whether hauling heavy loads for work or going on a fun adventure with your family, this tow ball is perfect for truck trailers and large caravans.

Not your problem, but the 2 orders are both still sitting in Customs, Brisbane due to Covid-19. I hope they get on a flight soon.

I will give International Post a call tomorrow and see when your orders will be leaving for Auckland. Planes to NZ have been delayed due to Covid-19. Thank you, Steve Wotherspoon
