    These pins secure an insert to a receiver on a vehicle as part of a connection for towing.
    Stainless Steel—Stainless steel pins resist corrosion better in outdoor environments than steel pins.
    Toggle—Toggle hitch pins don’t require a cotter pin. Instead, the toggle swivels out of the way to insert them and then swivels back to secure them.
    Adapter Sleeve—Hitch pins with an adapter sleeve are compatible with three receiver sizes, so they’re handy if you have vehicles with different hitch sizes.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Hitch Pins. Hitch Pin Locks, Style B.

    Style B

    Secure trailers to vehicles by locking the hitch pin into the receiver—you can't disconnect the trailer without the key. Use them to prevent someone from stealing your trailer or moving it. Built to stand up to any weather, they're great for outdoor trailers. The lock body rotates around your hitch pin, so you can easily reach the key into the cylinder to unlock. A plastic cover protects the key cylinder from water and debris, so it won’t freeze, corrode, or jam.
    Style A—Style A lock from the side of your vehicle—access to the key cylinder is perpendicular to the hitch. These locks do not include a hole for a cotter pin. Made of steel, they’re stronger than stainless steel locks. Chrome plating adds corrosion resistance. The included cover is a separate piece.
    Style B—Style B lock from behind your vehicle—access to the key cylinder is parallel to the hitch. Made of stainless steel, they resist corrosion better than steel locks. The included cover is connected to the lock.
    Keyed Alike—Choose keyed alike locks if you need several locks that open with the same key.
    Keyed Differently—Choose keyed differently locks if you need locks that each open with a different key.
    For 1 1/4" Hitch Receiver Height—Locks for 1 1/4" hitch receivers fit class I and II hitches.
    For 2" Hitch Receiver Height—Locks for 2" square hitch receivers fit class III and IV hitches.
    For 2 1/2" Hitch Receiver Height— Locks for 2 1/2" square hitch receivers fit class III-V hitches.

    Kit with Cotter Pin

    Kit with Locking Pin

    Everything you need to attach a hitch to your vehicle's receiver—these kits include a hitch insert, ball, and pin. To match the height of your trailer, you can flip them over to raise or drop the ball. The ball in these kits connects with hitch-ball couplers on trailers.
    Locking—Kits with a locking hitch pin prevent your hitch from getting stolen—you can't pull the hitch insert out without the key. A dust cap keeps debris out of the locking mechanism.
    For Maximum Trailer Weight—Maximum trailer weight is the total weight being towed.
    Vertical Capacity—Vertical capacity (also known as tongue weight) is the weight of the load on the hitch ball.

    These inserts allow you to connect a drawbar coupler to a hitch receiver on a vehicle for towing. Fit them into a receiver and mount a coupler to the mounting plate. The more mounting holes a plate has, the more you can adjust the position of the coupler to match the height of your trailer.
    Maximum trailer weight is the total weight being towed. Vertical capacity (also known as tongue weight) represents the weight of the load on the drawbar ring.
    Powder-Coated Steel—Powder-coated inserts are more corrosion resistant than painted inserts.
