CURT 45562 Euro Mount Trailer Hitch Ball Mount

The CURT 45562 Euro Mount is a premium, light-duty trailer hitch ball mount designed for those who value convenience and a modern aesthetic. With a permanently attached 2-inch ball and a 1-1/4-inch shank, this mount is perfect for owners of small trailers, utility vehicles, and light recreational gear.

Product Description

The CURT Euro Mount line was engineered to combine form, function, and aesthetics for the U.S. market. Unlike traditional ball mounts that require separate installation and torqueing of the trailer ball, the Euro Mount arrives as an all-in-one unit. This design ensures the ball can never come loose or be stolen, providing added security for your towing setup. Featuring a 9-3/4" length and a 5-1/8" ball height, it offers the ideal geometry for many light-duty applications. Finished in a black carbide powder coat, it provides superior resistance to corrosion and scratches, keeping your equipment looking professional for years to come.

Features & Benefits

• Permanently Attached Ball: Eliminates the need for tools and torqueing, and ensures the ball cannot be stolen or vibrate loose.
• Sleek European Design: Combines a modern, low-profile look with rugged functionality for a cleaner appearance on your vehicle.
• Black Carbide Powder Coat: Provides advanced resistance against rust, scratches, and harsh environmental conditions.
• Light-Duty Towing Capacity: Rated for up to 3,500 lbs. gross trailer weight, making it highly versatile for small-scale towing needs.

Key Points & Helpful Resources

• Weight Limits: Always ensure you do not exceed the lowest weight capacity of any single component in your towing system (vehicle, hitch, or trailer).
• Compatibility: This model is designed for 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" hitch receivers.
• Usage: Ideal for smaller trailers, including utility trailers, small boats, canoe haulers, and popup campers.
