The Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin for 2" Trailer Hitches part # SHP2061 doesn't have a weight rating provided by Let's Go Aero. However, its a 5/8" bolt so you can estimate it to be between 70,000 and 90,000 lbs.

So, not being a math expert, it should be fine with my 7000 lb max weight camper trailer? There's alot riding on that one little pin. Thanks!

@RustyO According to Conner's math you can tow somewhere around 10 of your trailer at once without that pin breaking so you'll definitely be good to go. Please note we don't advise towing more than one trailer at a time - even if we're located in a State that still says it's safe to double tow.
