5/8 Hitch Pin w/Clip

The 5/8 Hitch Pin w/Clip from CURT Manufacturing is the essential fastening component every trailer owner and vehicle modifier needs in their toolbox. Whether you're towing a utility trailer, equipment hauler, or boat, this hitch pin securely locks your coupler to the hitch ball mount—preventing accidental separation under load. Built for reliability and safety-critical applications, this zinc-plated steel pin meets the demands of both casual weekend haulers and professional mechanics who depend on predictable, fail-safe connections.

Engineered with a 5/8-inch diameter shaft, the pin is forged from hardened steel and finished with zinc plating for corrosion resistance—critical for trailers exposed to road salt, moisture, and UV exposure. The integrated clip design locks the pin in place without additional hardware, eliminating rattle and vibration while towing. Zinc plating provides a durable protective barrier that extends service life and maintains a clean appearance, even after seasons of outdoor storage. The compact 3 x 1 x 6-inch form factor fits standard Class 1, 2, and 3 hitch receivers, making this a universal upgrade for nearly any towing setup.

Mechanics and DIY enthusiasts trust CURT pins for trailer assembly, truck bed modifications, and equipment mounting projects where secure fastening is non-negotiable. If your current pin is bent, corroded, or lost, replacement ensures proper weight distribution and towing stability. Compatible with any standard 5/8-inch hitch ball mount cavity, installation requires no tools—simply insert, align, and secure the clip. For safety-conscious drivers, keeping a spare 5/8 Hitch Pin w/Clip on hand provides peace of mind during long highway hauls.
