Experience superior towing power with advanced noise suppression technology.

The CURT A16 Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Head is engineered for optimal towing performance, offering a gross trailer weight capacity of 16,000 pounds and a vertical load capacity of 4,000 pounds. This hitch features a fully articulating torsion head and a cast yoke with poly torsion inserts, which work together to suppress shock loads and minimize noise during towing. The extra wide head design facilitates easier coupling, while the high strength interlocking jaws ensure a secure grip on the kingpin, enhancing stability for both the trailer and tow vehicle.
