Question:

What is the difference between your BM20 and BH20?

asked by: Val S

Expert Reply:

The Brophy Ball Mount # BM20 and the Brophy # BH20 referenced in your question are extremely similar to each other. They are both designed for 2 inch trailer hitch receivers, have a 10,000 pound towing weight capacity, feature a long, 13-1/4 inch shank and will give you either a 3/4 inch rise or a 2 inch drop. The primary difference between the two units is the ball hole diameter.

The # BH20 has a 1-1/4 inch ball hole diameter, which will be compatible with a hitch ball with this same diameter shank, such as the 2 inch # A-90 or the 2-5/16 inch # 19286. The Brophy # BM20 on the other hand has a 1 inch diameter ball hole. This makes it compatible with hitch balls that have a 1 inch diameter shank, such as the 2-5/16 inch # 63847.
