If you've ever guessed at your trailer's tongue weight and hoped for the best, you're not alone. This compact scale gives you a quick, one-handed way to check weight at the coupler. It even comes with a SnapPad for added grip.
If your trailer sways, or your truck feels light in the steering, or unsettled over bumps, your tongue weight could be off. This scale helps you dial it in before you hit the road. With a simple squeeze of the lever, you can adjust the height with one hand and lower the trailer with the other. Just set the foot in 2" steps, position it under the coupler, and crank your jack a couple inches. You'll get a clear, accurate reading in seconds. No math. No guesswork. Just a smoother, safer tow.
Ever set up on gravel or grass and felt your rig teeter like it's one gust away from tipping? This scales wide steel foot stays planted so you get accurate readings even when the ground's working against you. The built-in set screw holds the foot in place, so it doesn't drop out while you're adjusting the height. And to boost your footing, it comes with a 6" SnapPad that adds grip and stability when things get sketchy.
No squinting, no second guessing. The large analog display shows tongue weight in 50-lb increments up to 2,000 lbs. It also shows tongue weight in tons, so you'll know right away if you're creeping up on your vehicle's limits.

Hi, everyone. Steven here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look together at our Big Truck Big RV Weight Scale for Trailers with the included SnapPad Jack Stand Pad. And this is gonna be rated and show you a gauge up to 2,000 pounds capacity in 50 pound increments. So, it's gonna be great. There's a closeup view of what that scale looks like.
It's a one handed setup. You have a nice spring lever here on the side that you can go up or down. And you've got four different height adjustments there that you can use as far as your options with the handheld lever. And it works just that easy. Wow, that's a faster setup than cranking and everything because you can make this the right height if you need.
How you're gonna use it You're gonna wanna put this about a couple inches underneath your coupler. And then, obviously you want to drop the coupler right on top here and then put all the weight of the trailer on there. And then, it's gonna give you your readout that you need to see if you're in that safe zone on your tongue weight. It has a nice stable foot plate here. It's a six-inch diameter foot plate.
And again, this unit is including the SnapPad Jack Stand Pad. And the way you would connect that is you just kinda work it all the way around. Maybe use a screwdriver or something to help get it in there. And then once you've got it in there, it's gonna be held in place. Very, very nice.
It does take a little effort to get this kind of pried up 'cause it is a heavy-duty rubber construction. So, I'm not gonna put it on today for you. But this will go right inside of there and you've got a nice lip all the way, all the way around there that's gonna overlap about a quarter inch or so, and that's gonna be what's gonna hold that in place. And once you got that on, no screws required. It's simply gonna hold onto the bottom of that foot plate and you're gonna be good to go. Now, this is nice and small and compact, so you can put it inside of a toolbox, maybe cargo area, trunk. It's gonna be ready to use whenever you need to use it. Folks, that is gonna wrap it up for our look together at the Big Truck Big RV Tongue Weight Scale for Trailers with included SnapPad Jack Stand Pad. I'm Steven. As always, please stay safe while you're towing.
This product is solid, sturdy and easy to use. The on,y suggestion is to make the dial easier to see and discern the wight. It has given me greater confidence in knowing what my tongue weeght is .Perhaps enlarge the surface area of the face with larger numbers Customer service, as always with e-trailer was excellent.
Works as advertised. Was a little short for my tongue height, even fully extended. Nothing a block couldn’t fix though.
Disappointing. I was hoping for a tongue weight of under 700 lbs, it was 850. I’m sure it’s the scale and not the twin fully filled propane tanks and weight distributing hitch stored in the front trailer compartment.
I’m glad I bought it. I’m a numbers guy and this is my first RV. Now I have the information for a safe tow. BTW, your scale was the only affordable one I found that did less than 100 lb increments.
Great product. It is super easy to use and gives me accurate important information.
It is easy to use. The reason only 4 stars is the gauge to read is upside down so have to take a picture of it, make sure my auto rotate is off, and flip my phone to see the weight.
Easy to use and accurate
it worked, hope it is accurate.
works great easy to use
