(888) 723-0041Weigh Safe Cerakote Black 6" Drop Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount with Built-In Scale, 2" Shank, Keyed-Alike Locks
Part #: WS6-2-KA-CER-BLA
Weigh Safe
Description
The Weigh Safe 6" drop hitch with built-in scale for 2" receivers reads your tongue weight right at the ball, so every trailer leaves the driveway balanced. This is the patented hitch that made Weigh Safe the name in tongue weight: no guessing, no truck-scale detour, no bathroom scale under the jack. Load the trailer, check the reading, and shift cargo until it is right. Too little tongue weight and the trailer starts to sway. Too much and the front end goes light on steering and braking. Get it right every trip. It is the one hitch for the boat, the camper, and the utility trailer. The black finish disappears against a blacked-out bumper instead of flashing bare metal.
Features
- Hydraulic scale built into the slider: the ball presses a piston into an oil bed and the gauge reads that pressure as tongue weight
- Swap tow balls in seconds: take off the slider and pull the ball retaining pin
- Slider moves along the drawbar to match each trailer's coupler height
- Dual-pin slider lock locks the slider and ball in place with a key
- Keyed-alike hitch locking pin included: one key works the slider lock and the hitch pin
- Runs in the drop or the rise position
- Flips under the bumper and stows out of the way when you are not towing
- Dust cover seals the lock cylinder against road grit
- Cerakote ceramic coating adds UV and scratch protection over the aluminum
