CURT Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch A16 (MPN: 16033)

Experience stable and quiet towing with advanced features and durable design.

The CURT A16 fifth wheel trailer hitch is engineered for efficient and stable towing, accommodating a gross trailer weight of 16,000 pounds and a vertical load of 4,000 pounds. This fixed-type hitch features a fully articulating torsion head that enhances control during coupling and towing, while its cast yoke with poly-torsion inserts minimizes shock loads and reduces noise. The single-throw handle simplifies the coupling process, resetting automatically to the ready-to-couple position after uncoupling, which streamlines the hitching process.

Designed specifically for Ford long-bed pickups with the OEM truck bed puck system, the A16 includes adjustable anchors that eliminate chucking between the legs and under-bed platform. Its extra wide head opening facilitates easier coupling, and the three height adjustment positions allow for customization to fit various truck bed configurations. The three-position coupling indicator provides clear visibility of the coupling status from the cab, enhancing safety and convenience.

Constructed from high-strength steel and finished with a durable carbide powder coat, the CURT A16 is resistant to scratches, rust, and UV damage, ensuring longevity and reliability. The hitch is compatible with kingpin extension boxes, including common pivoting pin boxes, and features a quick installation and removal system with a quarter-turn anchoring mechanism. This hitch is tested for safety in accordance with SAE J2638 standards, making it a robust choice for serious towing needs.
