Welcome back James. I just messaged Blue Ox and they told me their locks are an 1" in diameter and the Replacement Black Rubber Dust Caps for Blue Ox Locks item # BLU26ER are just under an 1". These covers are designed for Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Locks like item # BX8858 and item # BX88212. I don't have any here to measure myself or I would get you a closer measurement.

What kind of hitch pin lock do you have? I can try to find you the exact cover you need if you could put that information where it says Add Comment.

I have a rapid hitch or Andersen. The last covers I purchased were slightly loose. My last one either fell off, or someone needed it more than I do.
