When hauling heavy loads, peace of mind comes from knowing your hitch can handle the task. The CURT 2" Hitch Ball boasts a robust 12,000 lbs gross towing weight capacity, making it perfect for towing substantial trailers like a horse trailer or a fully loaded car hauler. With a fine thread design on its 1" diameter shank, it ensures a tighter, more reliable grip, preventing loosening even during long hauls.
Nobody enjoys wrestling with their tools when installing hitch components. Thankfully, the CURT Hitch Ball comes with built-in wrench flats. This thoughtful feature allows for an easier grip during installation, making the process straightforward and less time-consuming.
Keeping your trailer components in top condition year after year is essential. With a chrome-plated finish, this hitch ball resists corrosion, maintaining its lustrous look even after numerous adventures. Whether traveling in humid environments or exposed to road salts, this finish ensures lasting durability.
For those dealing with diverse towing setups, versatility is key. The 2-1/4" long shank fits ball mount platforms that are at least 3/8" thick, providing flexibility across different towing systems. Whether switching between ball mounts or adjusting for different trailer heights, this hitch ball adapts to your needs.
When towing, the structural integrity of your components matters. Constructed from heat-treated steel, this hitch ball not only withstands immense stresses but also prevents wear and tear over repeated use. Depend on its rugged build for your most demanding hauls without worry.
No need to hunt for compatible hardware. The CURT Hitch Ball includes both a lock washer and nut, ensuring you have everything needed for a secure and complete installation right out of the box. Save time and avoid additional trips to the store with this all-in-one package.

Today were going to take a look at the Curt 2-inch hitch ball, part number 40038. This hitch ball is 2 inches in diameter. It has a shank diameter of 1 inch, and a shank length of 2 inches. The wrench flats, as you can see here and here, are 1 5/8 of an inch apart. This item has a weight capacity of 12,000 pounds. It features fine threads for more holding strength.
It meets US V5 specifications and it is tested for safety. Now were going to bring in our ball mount and our trailer hitch demonstrator to show you how this would be installed. You would just slide the shank into the ball hole, place the washer, the washer and the nut do come with this item, and then finger tighten that, and once youve got that as tight as you can get it by finger tightening, you would get your wrench and tighten it the remainder of the way so you can use it with your trailer coupler and attach your trailer. That should do it for our Curt 2-inch hitch ball, part number 40038.
