Durable design you can rely on

Crafted from heavy-duty 2-inch diameter tubes and 1/8-inch thick carbon steel, this Hitch Armor is built to endure the bumps and scrapes of real life on the road. The dual-stage powder coating provides a hard-wearing surface that defies chips and weathering, keeping the look sharp through seasons of camping trips, road trips, and daily commutes alike. The result is a sturdy barrier that feels substantial and ready for action.

Installation notes and compatibility

The package includes hardware designed for straightforward mounting. The pin-lock accommodates hitch tubes up to 3 inches in outer diameter.
