Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a quick look at the buyers products heavy duty hitch pin. This is a five-eighths inch diameter pin. We've got about four inches of usable space. What I mean is from our hole here for our cotter pin out to where that curve starts, right about four inches, so have about four inches to work with there, so it is going to be ideal for those two and a half inch receiver tubes.
This is made of a heavy duty carbon steel construction, so it's going to be very durable. It's also got a yellow zinc plating on it to help resist any sort of corrosion, rust, anything like that. We've also got our cotter pin to help us keep this installed on our hitch so it's not going to wiggle out, it's going to stay in place and hold on our hitch-mounted accessories.Overall, simple device but very important and the heavy dutiness of this hitch pin is going to make it very usable for those heavy duty projects that you'd need that two and a half inch receiver tube opening for. That's going to complete our look at the buyers products heavy duty hitch pin. Thanks for watching..

This solid steel hitch pin lets you secure your ball mount, bike rack, cargo carrier or other accessory to your 2-1/2" or 3" trailer hitch receiver. Zinc finish guards against corrosion.Definitely long enough for my 2 1/2" hitch. The plating is good. Seems decent for the price.
Great selection to chose from at a good price. I will continue to use Etrailer for all my trailer needs.
Great hitch pin to use or keep as a spare. Great support from eTrailer... Very knowledgeable and easy folks to work with.
I didn't need this pin. I wanted to order a pair of fenders for my trailer and the price worked out to $[XX].
This didn't meet the requirement of $[XX] minimum for free shipping so I asked the rep if If he would just price the order at exactly $[XX] free shipping. NO, we can't do that!
The guy was hard-nosed about it so I asked if he had another item for $[XX] that would build out the order. He grudgingly found the lowest priced item you had for sale and it was this $[XX] pin.
I keep the pin in my truck tool box and, every time I see it, I am reminded of your company.
Easy to use. Works well with the hitch reducer (2 1/2 to 2)
The B&W hitch is nice, but with 4 pins to lock, there goes another $153 for the 4 pin lock set. Note that etrailer has the 4 pin lock set weight max at 14.4k and the factory says it is 18k.Will be towing later this week, I see no reason for any issues. I can see why the hitch tube is not solid, because if it was you’d need help to get it into the receiver.
I ordered this set up as my new truck has
A wider Hitch Receiver than normal . I checked at other places for the longer pin . Get online with ETRAILER and Bingo Y'all had it . No fuss , no muss , prompt shipping . It just doesn't get any better than that . THANK YOU .
Looks fine, works fine. Could be another inch longer for my use.
worked great
Way heavier and stronger than I expected and came earlier than expected.
Great price heavy duty
Very good quality - wish it had the “twist pin” instead of the normal pin

I guess I should’ve said a twist clip. I attached a picture to this email.

I see, I just did not think of that. We do carry a pin that is a little different that does have a twist pin. It is part # 325-GH-099.
I searched to find the right adapters to attach a new bike rack to my car. The process was overwhelming! Then I called e-trailer. Hannah listed to my needs, found the exact parts I needed and gave me the part numbers. The package arrived swiftly just like she said and I am in business! It worked like a dream and finally I can go biking in beautiful scenic places to restore my soul. Thank you Hannah!
Fits perfectly and correct length for 2 1/2” shank
It is a hitch pin to replace the original I lost.
I got what I ordered. It came when they said it would come.
Quick delivery well packaged!
99% of the time I'm always extremely satisfied with the experience of your e-commerce
Thank you
Works as described
Superb quality, works perfectly.
Good Quality part.
I needed a simple pin for my towing reciever. I found the pin in the size I needed easily on the website ordered it and recieved it in the promised timeframe. Everything went as expected without a hitch.
I haven't had the chance to try the hitch on my truck yet, but I expect no issues. The package was received promptly and the ordering process was smooth. On initial inspection of the hitch I'll have to say I'm very pleased. This thing is built for business! I will continue to use trailer.
Looks like high-quality machining on this hitch pin. It's a bit hard to get hitch pins for a 3-inch receiver, but this one fits perfectly. Great service by etrailer.

You mentioned in your review that you wish that it had the twist pin instead of the normal pin. I wanted to see if you could explain more of what you meant.
