eZ-Latch Coupler

Cast Coupler Cutaway

This coupler features a simple-to-use latching mechanism known as the eZ-Latch. With this mechanism, hooking up is as easy as dropping the coupler over your trailer hitch ball. The latch does not need to be tugged or manually activated to allow the ball into the coupler socket, nor does it have to be secured in place. Just make sure that the coupler is properly lined up with the ball when you lower it, and the rest is automatic. Disengaging the coupler is just as effortless. Simply lift up the handle and the coupler socket will automatically release its grip on the ball.


Demco eZ-Latch in Use

The contoured, low-profile design of the latch handle helps protect the coupler from damage by allowing any potential hazards - from debris on the road to your ball mount backing into the coupler - to simply slide over the top. This helps prevent anything from getting under the latch handle and releasing the ball, and it can also limit any damage to the coupler should an impact occur


Unlike most couplers, which have a pin hole on the handle latch, the eZ-Latch coupler features a hole on the side of the coupler itself. Inserting a coupler lock through this hole will keep the latch from lifting, preventing disconnect and theft.


Sturdy, Corrosion-Resistant Construction

Made of sturdy steel, this coupler features a durable grey powder coat primed paint that is designed to limit rust and corrosion. This finish, which allows for easy welding, has a 500-hour salt spray rating, making the coupler perfect for marine use.


The eZ-Latch's sleek, ergonomically designed handle is constructed of an impact-resistant polymer-nylon-resin compound that provides the flexibility and strength needed to bounce back from a collision. The handle is corrosion-proof, allowing it to withstand whatever the road and the elements dish out.

ETrailer has great customer service. On a time crunch I had to locate a coupler replacement for my Marvel which as been in service since 1999 and was past needing replacement. The staff, in particular Jena when na seers my call for help over the phone and quickly solutioned a Demco which doubled the capacity. The coupler arrived as promised and "on time". This Demco is a far superior improvement and design. Although if is a variance from "original" on our Airstream, it is worth the change. The coupler appears is much more substantial in design and allows adjustment. The fit was perfect angle and welded cleanly and is a great replacement for the Marvel which is marginally sufficient. The ONLY thing to be aware of is the jack hole is further rearward probably will not match your trailer bottom hole as didn't on this install requiring fitting of a fix relocating lower plate

As reviewed initially, the coupler remains a far superior product. My ONLY issue being placement of the tongue jack hole. It is likely there for more forward clearance. Great product and service



by:

This hitch is super strong. Well built. The coupler is a great feature as well.



by:

Exactly what I wanted and came in a timely manner.



by:

High quality, heavy duty hitch arrived very fast. I love that you can order a replacement latch and I will never have to cut this one off just because the latch wears out. The product arrived in excellent condition. The mobile welder said it’s cheaper to go to a shop versus having a mobile welder come out but I cut the old coupler off before I knew that.



by:

Demco couplers are the bomb!!



by:

I called and told you that it will not discount by pulling up on the plastic handle. You fell like your going to break the plastic. Your customer service past the buck and sent me to the manufacture. They have done nothing. I have to take a rod and gently beat it up from the bottom to remove the trailer from my F550 truck. If it was not welded to the trailer and the fact I leave it connected to the truck and only remove when loaning the trailer or sending the truck to the dealer for inspections and repairs I would have replaced it. this is the said part all I wanted was to purchase a rebuild kit for it.



by:

This is a great product! Working with a local welding shop to get this attached to my 2017 Airstream trailer. Much better than the OEM coupler.

Fantastic! I wish Airstream would consider using this as the OEM coupler.



by:

The Demco coupler is 5*. I gave you 3* because you have an issue with your shipping dept. The coupler was just tossed in a box with no way to secure it. It arrived with the box blown open. The coupler was undamaged because...well it's made of metal. A previous order with you was for a trailer cover. That box arrived with so many staples in it, there was no way one had not gone through the cover. Many did go through and to your credit you replaced the cover. So as I see it 5*s for your site and products and 1* for your shipping dept.

Fantastic works perfect heavy duty all the way good job E TRAILER



by:

Very solid. Will purchase again for sur e.



by:

First off my customer service person Tara was very helpful helping me confirm I had chosen the correct product for my needs.
The package arrived in just a few days and we are working hard to get it installed.
The only reason I gave it a 4 star (minor) was the box was really torn up by UPS I think such a heavy item could have used more packing.



by:

the one I wanted has the metal locking latch like the one in the picture sent me the one with plastic plastic not to happy with it just don't seem safe on a hitch



by:

this is a great hitch and at a great price. Most beefy hitch on the market



by:

Had a welder remove and install the new hitch. I love it because it's so easy to use.



by:

etrailer has met or exceeded our expectations in every respect, every time! This was our 6th or 7th order and every order has been correct and ON TIME!

Thanks etrailer!



by:

Building a trailer and needed the hitch part.



by:

Product is well built and as advertised. Shipment was prompt and arrived on time. 4 stars due to a thin cardboard packaging that had several holes and a few scapes in the product. I am welding this on and painting afterwards so it's not a major issue.



by:

Wow what great service order the trailer coupler and it was as I expected and got it delivered in the time that was promised.



by:

Good quality real fast delivery helps in keeping us on the road thanks
