Video Transcript for Complete Breakdown of the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball w/ 1" Rise

Today we're going to take a look at the BMW two and five sixteenth hitch ball with the one inch rise. This is in a raw finish, has a 24,000 lbs weight capacity. This hitch ball will provide a connection point for your trailer's coupler, this built in rise right here will let it easily match the ball to your trailer height. The trailer ball will sit about an extra inch above the ball mount platform, the threads on the shank itself are twelve threads per inch, which will provide a tight, strong grip. It is made of a heat treated steel, which is very durable, has a nice raw finish to it. It does include the lock, washer, and the nut.

This part is made in the USA. A few specs on this, and they are stamped on the top of the ball also. The ball diameter itself is two and five sixteenths, the weight capacity is 24,000 lbs, and again we mentioned, I'm just going to put a ruler on it just to give you an idea of the rise, which is this portion right here. This is going to be right at one inch rise, and then on the shank itself, the total length of the shank is going to right at two and a half inches, and the diameter is going to be right at one and a quarter inches. When you go to install it, you should drop this into the hole on the ball mount, put your lock washer on, take your nut, go ahead and screw that on, and then just tighten that down to the correct torque specs for the application. That should do it for the review of the BMW two and five sixteenth hitch ball with the one inch rise and a raw finish, and a 24,000 lbs weight capacity.
