Video Transcript for Dutton-Lainson Trailer Coupler DL13728 Review

Today, we're going to review part number DL13728. The Dutton-Lainson-Trailer-Coupler showed a 1-7/8" hitch ball on a 3" channel tongue. This coupler uses a trigger-latch design. It is a bolt on coupler. This has a weight capacity of 2,000 pounds. It does use a zinc TUFFPLATE finish, which has 3x the corrosion resistance of a standard zinc finish. Couple measurements we will do here.

It's for coupler measured inside-to-inside is 3" for the channel tongue measurement. Another measurement is the distance between the mounting holes on the side. If we measure that center-to-center would be 3". This coupler is made in the U.S.A. That should do it for review of part number DL13728..
