Will the Curt 4-Way Flat Magnetic Connector Adapter Easily Disconnect

Updated 12/22/2025 | Published 10/28/2024

Question:

The email read It snaps into place, so you’ll be more confident it’s hooked up and won’t disconnect. This adds one more connection like the original. Double the chances of disconnection? By adding this device one now has three connections, which translates to nine contact points for dirt and moisture to get in. How is this betterinch than one connection and only three contact points. Respectfully, Henry

Henry, when it's put that way, it does sound like it could be more problematic but the Curt 4-Way Flat Magnetic Connector Adapter # C34RJ does have flat connection surfaces which are easy to keep clean - so should dirt and whatnot build up, it wouldn't be terribly difficult to clean.

As far as disconnection goes, this adapter actually does have a pretty powerful magnet so it will take some good effort to pull it apart.

Hey Henry, how did the magnetic connector work out for you after trying it? Your thoughts on how well it stayed connected could really help others thinking about the same adapter.
