Video Transcript for Checking Out the Curt Coupler Safety Pin, 1/4"

Today we're going to be taking a quick look at the Curt Coupler Safety Pin. This is part number know-8P. This is a quarter inch coupler pin. It's got a nice safety latch that's going to come around it and hold it in place. This is typically going to be used on the tongue of a trailer here to hold our latch closed. What we'll do is just open it up there.

The quarter inch shank is going to have two and three sixteenths of an inch worth of usable pin. For most couplers, that's going to fit through there without any kind of problem. As you can see, that's going to keep it from coming up and coming off our trailer. These are going to work good whether you're using this style of coupler or the trigger coupler. As long as it's got a quarter inch hole diameter there, we should be able to slide that through and won't have any issues. The spring's nice and sturdy.

I like this pin because I don't think it's going to be one of those that's going to pop off or we're going to wind up it coming off while we're heading down the road. It's got a nice zinc coating to it, so corrosion resistance is going to be a pretty strong suit there. We're not going to have to worry about it kind of degrading over time to badly. When it's time to remove it, all we have to do is just push that spring loaded latch straight out there, pull it out, unhook our trailer or whatever we need to do and then when it's time for use, just click simple operation. It's really going to give us that piece of mind knowing that we're not going to have to worry about our coupler coming loose. Now that we've gone over the details of it, that's going to complete today's look at the Curt Safety Coupler Pin, part number know-8P..

  • Recommended Replacement Cotter Pin and Clip For Curt TruTrack 17500 Weight Distribution
    We've previously determined from Curt that the Curt Coupler Safety Pin, 1/4" # K-8P can also be used on the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17500, so that would be the best way to obtain those parts outside of the Service Kit # C17550.

  • Needing a Replacement Torklift Tie Down Snapper Pin
    My contact at Torklift confirmed with me that you can use any 1/4 inch snapper pin to replace the one that was included in the hardware kit. The Curt Coupler Safety Pin, # K-8P, is a 1/4 inch pin that has a usable length of 2-3/16 inches. If you have the other pin try, then try to match using that length.

  • Are Curt & Tow Ready Coupler Tow Bar The Same Thing
    They are similar but the Tow Ready Adjustable Tow Bar 63180 is different from the Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms # C19745. They are manufactured by competing companies, and while both have a 5k capacity and come with brackets to attach to the vehicle you are looking to tow, the biggest difference is that the Tow Ready limits you to a towing speed of 45 mph. So if you wanted to flat tow your vehicle on a highway you would not be able to do so. Since the Curt # C19745 does not...

  • Replacement Lock for Snowbear Trailer Coupler
    The Pin and Clip For Class 3, 4 and 5 Trailer Hitch Receivers, item # PC3, is the pin needed to install a ball mount in a Class 3 or larger 2 inch receiver. I checked out the Snowbear trailer website and saw that the majority of their trailers have a standard 2 inch ball coupler. We have coupler locks that will fit this style of trailer coupler. The Curt Coupler Safety Pin, 1/4 inch, item # K-8P, is a no frills safety pin that will get the job done and if you want a measure of security...

    For the referenced product, Curt Coupler Safety Pin # K-8P, usable length refers to the space between the inside edges of the head of the pin and the triangular locking clip that fits over the end of the pin, as you state. The linked photo illustrates this item and the dimension to which I refer. The overall length of the pin, from tip to tip, measures 3-inches and the overall length from the inside edge of the pin's head to the end of the pin measures 2-3/4-inches. I have linked a brief...
