Expert Reply:
Standard hitch pins like # PC3 and hitch locks like # 2866DAT do not have specific trailer weight capacities because all of them are capable of towing more weight than any trailer hitch they will fit. You do not need to have any concerns with the weight capacity of a hitch pin or lock.
