Hitch Pins & Receiver Locks
Hitch Pins
A hitch pin is the fastener that secures your ball mount, cargo carrier, bike rack, or other receiver-mounted accessory inside your vehicle's hitch tube. Standard hitch pins use a simple clip or cotter pin to hold them in place, while locking hitch pins add a key-activated mechanism that prevents the pin and whatever is attached to it from being removed without the key.
Hitch Locks & Anti-Theft Protection
Trailer theft is a real and costly problem, and a quality hitch lock is one of the most affordable ways to protect your investment. Hitch locks work by securing the coupler to the ball, preventing a thief from simply backing up to your trailer and driving away. BOLT locks offer a unique advantage; their cylinders are designed to be re-keyed to match your existing vehicle ignition key, so you only need one key for your entire towing setup. Trimax and CURT offer heavy-duty padlock-style coupler locks, receiver locks, and combo packs that cover both the hitch receiver and the trailer coupler simultaneously.
Receiver Tube Extenders & Adapters
Sometimes your hitch receiver is in the right place, but your ball mount or accessory needs more clearance. Receiver tube extenders slide into your existing 2" or 1-¼" receiver and provide additional length, letting your bike rack, cargo carrier, or accessory mount further behind the vehicle. Hitch adapters allow you to step up or down between receiver sizes, useful when mounting a Class III accessory on a Class II hitch or vice versa.
Pintle Hooks & Heavy-Duty Mounts
For commercial towing, agricultural use, or any application that demands a more rugged connection than a standard ball mount, pintle hooks are the answer. A pintle hook and lunette ring connection is more tolerant of misalignment than a ball-and-coupler setup and can handle greater side-to-side movement under load, making it a popular choice for construction trailers, military equipment, and heavy utility use. H&H carries pintle hooks and mounting plates for a variety of hitch receiver sizes and weight ratings.
Cargo Carriers & Receiver-Mounted Accessories
Your hitch receiver can do far more than tow. Receiver-mounted cargo carriers let you haul gear, luggage, toolboxes, or equipment directly behind your truck or SUV without taking up bed space or requiring a trailer. H&H carries folding and fixed-platform cargo carriers in a range of sizes and weight capacities, along with hitch-mounted steps that make accessing your truck bed easier, especially on lifted trucks.

FAQs: Towing Hitch Pins & Locks
What size hitch pin do I need?
Hitch pin sizing depends on your receiver tube size. A standard 2" receiver typically uses a 5/8" diameter hitch pin, while a 1-¼" receiver uses a ½" pin. Always verify your receiver size before ordering a replacement pin or locking pin.
What is the difference between a hitch lock and a coupler lock?
A hitch lock secures the ball mount or accessory inside the receiver tube of your vehicle, preventing removal. A coupler lock attaches to the trailer's coupler and prevents it from being connected to a hitch ball. For maximum anti-theft protection, using both together is the most effective approach.
Can I use a BOLT lock with my existing ignition key?
Yes, BOLT locks are designed to be re-keyed to match your vehicle's existing ignition key using a simple process that requires no locksmith. Once coded, you only need your vehicle key to operate the lock, which eliminates the need to carry separate keys for your hitch hardware.
What is a receiver tube extender used for?
A receiver tube extender adds length behind your vehicle's hitch receiver, giving more clearance for bike racks, cargo carriers, or ball mounts on vehicles where the receiver sits close to the rear bumper or trailer hitch. They are available in various lengths for both 2" and 1-¼" receivers.
Are pintle hooks compatible with standard trailer couplers?
No. Pintle hooks require a matching lunette ring on the trailer, not a standard ball coupler. They are used primarily in commercial, agricultural, or heavy-duty applications where the extra durability and misalignment tolerance of a pintle connection is needed.
Can a cargo carrier fit any hitch receiver?
Most cargo carriers are designed for 2" receivers, though some are available with adapters or in configurations for 1-¼" receivers. Always confirm your receiver size and the carrier's weight capacity before purchasing to ensure a safe and compatible fit.
What brands of hitch accessories does H&H carry?
H&H stocks hitch pins, locks, and accessories from CURT, Trimax, BOLT, Gen-Y Hitch, Weigh Safe, Andersen Hitches, BulletProof Hitches, Blue Ox, Buyers Product, Fastway, Rough Country, WARN, Factor 55, and many more, covering a wide range of applications and price points.
