This coupler features technology that allows the coupler, when set in the closed (tow) latch position, to auto-latch onto the hitch ball when set on top of the ball with minimal weight. Incorrect latching and/or forgetting to properly close the latch mechanism is the #1 reason for trailer separation from the tow vehicle. It has an incredibly strong cast steel ball clamp and latch handle and stainless steel safety pin.
