Hey Steven,
The etrailer Spare Tire Mount is a high quality steel construction tire mount. The mount is torqued down 60 foot lbs onto the trailer to ensure a secure attachment for your spare. I do recommend using Loctite onto those bolts just for some added security. It is always a good idea to check and re-tighten the bolts holding the spare after any trip. That is the case with most spare tire carriers out there, but the etrailer mount is a great quality mount.
What size tires do you have that you would be using it for?
