Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Trimax Universal Anti-Rattle Clamp for your Class 5 trailer hitch. Now, this anti-rattle clamp is going to let you enjoy your ride without the soundtrack of a loose ball mount. This is going to silence the noise. It's going to get rid of any annoying rattles and vibrations. Now, this is going to be a universal fit.
This is going to work with your 2 1/2-inch Class 5 trailer hitch receivers, and I do wanna point out that the hitch receiver must have a ring or a collar around it for the clamp to attach, as you can see right here. Now, I do have the card that comes in the packaging there, just to give you an idea of what I'm talking about here, just to give you a better demonstration here of how this is actually going to secure to your trailer hitch receiver. So, you're just going to install this, and then hand tighten the included wing nuts there. It's gonna give you a rock-solid hold. It's gonna keep your hitch firmly in place so you can tow with confidence, not clatter.
This itself is a very durable, very rugged piece of equipment, so I think it's gonna last you a long time. It's got this great finish on here that I think is gonna do a great job of resisting the elements that it's going to be constantly exposed to. If you happen to have any other additional questions, maybe you have some questions and I didn't answer them during our time together, don't hesitate to reach back out to us. Ultimately, we wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you want and need. But I think that's gonna wrap up our quick look today.
I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
Solid
Awesome as always, you folks are GREAT! !!
I received an email earlier today that indicated that the item had not yet been sent. I was disappointed as I was hoping to get it before the weekend. To my surprise it was delivered as I was expressing my concern. Sorry for my impatience.
Thanks for your amazing service.
Definitely stopped the rattle
Very solidly built, and easy to install. Since installing, my hitch is totally rattle free.
The product did exactly what is was said to do . The product was solid really tightened the hitch highly recommended it
This anti rattle clam has worked perfectly, highly recommend.
Great quality! Fast delivery
This anti-rattle device works fine, but not using the wing nuts. I couldn’t get it tight enough without using pliers. When I get home from this trip I will get regular stainless nuts and all should be fine. I will have to remember to bring a socket and ratchet handle, but that’s no so bad.
It took out about 80 to 90 % of the rattle, very easy to install, however you need to remember to put the hitch through the clamp before you put it into the receiver or you have to take and put back on the wing nuts.
Excellent product completely stopped the rattles
Exactly what I was looking for. The ball/hitch mount on my setup makes a sharp turn right out of the receiver, leaving no room for other types of anti-rattle clamps to latch on. I tried the other types in both the top collar and bottom collar mount positions, they just would not fit. This fits just right and I like how it grabs the collar. Easy to put on, and easy to take off when needed.
The clamp arrived with the usual safe and speedy shipping from etrailer! I have not installed it yet, but, for the purpose I have for it, it sure looks plenty beefy: heavy, solid steel, with good welds on the reinforcing bits. Bigger in the hand than the photos imply.
Some folks might question the use of wing nuts, but the u-bolt is thick enough that the wing nuts themselves are large, so lots of torque can be applied for a tight fit. And, since I know and expect that bumps in the road will tend to shake any nuts loose over time, wing nuts seem a good, simple way to adjust tightness on the go. And easy enough to swap out with lock nuts if it turns out they are not up to the job.
The price was right, too!
Great product! Very heavy duty materials. Easy to install. The rattle is gone. After hooking up a trailer check the wing nuts and titen if necessary.
Absolutely huge improvement with the chucking and hitch movement. Make sure that you check for tightness during each full stop. Highly recommend.
Works great for quiteting down the clunking and rattling sound from an ill fitting hitch.
It mostly holds the hitch still. I still get a slight amount of up and down movement. I also find I need to tighten it again after driving a bit, though I doubt that is the fault of the clamp. I think I'll add some nuts to lock down the wingnuts just in case they vibrated loose.
This is exactly what I wanted for my hitch! GREAT!

It does a great job clamping the hitch to the receiver. Looks clean also being chrome!
Works as advertised! Stops the horrible clunking when stopping and starting that you get without it. Easy to install with a socket wrench and comes right off when needed with the same socket wrench. You actually only need to loosen to remove from receiver and you can leave it on the hitch during storage.

That's great to hear, Chris! That chucking is no joke sometimes. What are you usually towing?
You really cannot go wrong with anything that Trimax makes. This anti-rattle clamp is one of the best I've ever used. Superior quality and it clamps down to the hitch and receiver so well that it completely eliminates all movement at the connection point. What's more, it did not loosen at all while I was hauling a loaded trailer.
Do you have a question about this Hitch Anti-Rattle?

Glad to hear that took care of the rattle, that’s always one of the most satisfying fixes. Sounds like you’ve got it dialed in too with checking those wing nuts after the first hookup, that’s a great tip for keeping everything tight and quiet. What kind of trailer are you usually towing with it?
