eZ-Latch Coupler

This coupler features a simple-to-use latching mechanism known as the eZ-Latch. With this mechanism, hooking up is as easy as dropping the coupler over your trailer hitch ball. The latch does not need to be tugged or manually activated to allow the ball into the coupler socket, nor does it have to be secured in place. Just make sure that the coupler is properly lined up with the ball when you lower it, and the rest is automatic. Disengaging the coupler is just as effortless. Simply lift up the contoured handle and the coupler socket will automatically release its grip on the ball. The eZ-Latch's sleek, ergonomically designed handle is also constructed of a durable composite material that's corrosion-proof, allowing it to withstand whatever the road and the elements dish out.

I’m a 75 year old disabled woman who was about to give up traveling due to the efforts to hitch and unhitch my trailer. I got this new hitch installed and it changed my life; it is effortless. I’m on the beach now while a winter storm is raging around the U.S. thank you so much for a hitch that changed my life.



by:

I had previously purchased the Atwood coupler #AT80072, but it didn’t seem to go far enough back on the a-frame and I didn’t feel comfortable with that. This Demco model is nearly identical in size to the old Hadco engineering coupler that came on my 1964 trailer. I thought that this 10000 lb coupler would be overkill, but I’m happy that it will weld on exactly like the original.



by:

Fast and great service



by:

The process with ordering and delivery of my hitch went great and deserves a 5 star proformance. This is the 2nd time ordering trailer parts and they always out proforma my satisfaction



by:

Best coupler I have ever had on a trailer. Wish I would have had sooner in my live of trailering. Makes connecting and disconnecting a one step breeze.
I will get this on all trailers from now on!



by:

Heavy duty lot better than stock



by:

Yes. Best coupler I ever owned. Self locking feature works great. Absolutely love this product and I recommend to anyone needing a new coupler. This product is well built and built to last. Thank you for such a fantastic product. Will buy again if needed.



by:

Product good heavy duty quality have not installed or used yet- but nice product - hoping many years of use



by:

I just got the hitch coupler. Will know more when it is installed in a week or so.
Using the coupler, ball mount and hitch ball to upgrade my car hauler to 10K.



by:

Excellent product and was exactly as described. I love the Demco EZ latch. Shipping was super quick! Will do business with etrailer.com again.



by:

Great product. After a year of heavy use, everything still works perfectly. George was a great help during the buying process. He made sure the tongue weight was proper for the trailer loads. I have used etrailer several times, and will continue to use them in the future.



by:

Great.. Heavy Duty ,,,Super easy to use... love it... I hope it outlast my Trailer. which should outlast my life time anyway ...Received all my order promptly was well packaged...Thanks ....



by:

Looks good, quality controle could be a little better. Nothing that will effect the function. It looks like it was not cleaned after welding. There is a lot of weld splatter. I am painting it a different color anyway so I will clean it up.



by:

The replacement hitch fit perfectly and has been welded in place. Thanx!



by:

excellent product. perfect fit. better quality than other hitches i found.



by:

Always easy to work with whether buying or returning, etrailer is awesome.

Awesome coupler!!! Lookin for a robust coupler…. Look no further!



by:

The coupler that came with our teardrop did the job, but getting hooked up and secure on the ball was a real pain that would take multiple attempts to reposition it before it dropped fully in place. I like the Demco eZ-latch. So much better. I uploaded 3 photos: 1) original coupler, 2) trailer frame with new holes drilled and old holes filled with Bondo, 3) Demco coupler in place. The changeover was very easy.



by:

It is the best used yo have a the older style i was always worried if it had latched correctly but with this latch system I dont have to do anything i dont even have to see it i can just hear it click when its latching on its own and i know its right dont forget to buy the pin for it i have actually bought two one for each of my trailers



by:

Great upgrade to my heavy trailers. Would be 5 stars if the locking pin hole would accept a larger diameter lock or a padlock.



by:

The hitch is excellent for our 14,000lb equipment trailer.
Only issue is the hole for the padlock was too small for any locks and we drilled it out to accommodate one.
Con- Shipping was not very good. It was returned to the dealer twice because it was sent via United Postal Service and our shop has not Post office box. Only a location address. The USPS does not take packages to our location. We could not seem to get the package sent via UPS or FedEx to us.
Only time this has happened when ordering from etrailer.

  • Replacement A-Frame Coupler and Jack For Big Tex Trailer With Atwood 88555 2" Trailer Coupler
    You will need to replace your entire coupler assembly as the Atwood coupler that you have is obsolete and they are not producing any parts for it. I recommend replacing it with the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97. This coupler uses the same 2" size hitch ball of your Atwood coupler and the eZ-Latch coupler will make connecting to your trailer much easier as you no longer need to raise the latch. You will be able to mount any A-Frame style jack that has a 2-1/4" diameter outer...

  • Recommendations For Allowing Trailer Jack To Be Able To Swing Up Without Hitting Ground
    I would be happy to help! There is a few options to get the increased clearance you need to raise your trailer so you can stow away your jack when not in use. I recommend replacing the coupler with a standard a-frame coupler you would still be able to get the coupler off the hitch without hitting the spare tire as it would be the same height. With an A-Frame coupler like the # DM14791-97 installed this would raise the trailer a few inches so you could keep using your jack, or it has...

  • Recommended Jack Support Plate When Installing Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler DM14791-97
    For the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch - Primed - 2" Ball - Weld On - 10K # DM14791-97 you were looking at you can use the Bottom Support Plate for 2-1/4" OD A-Frame Jacks - 5,000 lbs # JSP-100 to replace your current jack support plate. I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Can Demco Trailer Coupler # DM37ZR be Welded On
    Yes, if you wanted to weld on the Demco coupler part # DM37ZR instead of bolting it on you certainly could. This is powdercoated though so you will need to remove the powdercoating first. For a similar coupler that was designed to be welded on and instead is just primed we have the part # DM14791-97 which has a 10k capacity, the same latch design, and fits a 2 inch hitch ball.

  • How Far Out Will The Coupler Sit On The Demco DM14791-97 A-Frame Coupler?
    The Demco A-Frame Coupler # DM14791-97 will fit the fairly standard 50 degree A-Frame, which you do look to have. This will definitely extend farther than your current coupler and will measure 7-1/2" long (roughly) from where the A-Frame will start to flare outwards. The sidewalls of the A-Frame brackets will also measure 3-1/4" tall, so there will be plenty of room for your 3" frame rails. So with all that being said, the Demco # DM14791-97 looks to be a fantastic replacement for your...

    The Bottom Support Plate for 2-1/4" OD A-Frame Jacks - 5,000 lbs # JSP-100 you mentioned is 1/8" thick, has a hole diameter of 2.29", 8-3/4" long at the back, 5-1/2" long at the front, the diagonal sides are 3-7/8", and front to back is 3-1/2" as shown in the included diagram. I included a video of the # JSP-100 for you to take a look at.

  • Recommended Weld-On A-Frame Trailer Coupler For A Teardrop Camper Build
    For your teardrop camper build I recommend the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole # DM14791-97 over the Bulldog # BD028386 you were looking at. The latch style of the Demco is much easier and in my own personal opinion a safer design. The eZ-Latch does not need to be tugged or manually activated to allow the ball into the coupler socket, nor does it have to be secured in place. Just make sure that the coupler is properly lined up with the ball when you lower it, and the rest is...

  • Replacement Coupler For Discontinued Atwood 2" Yoke Coupler
    I recommend replacing your Atwood coupler with a Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97, as parts are virtually impossible to find for the older Atwood couplers. This will get you all new latch components that feature an EZ latch system. The coupler comes primed to protect against rust until you are able to have it welded on in place of the old coupler.

  • Why Dont Trailer Coupler Replacements Come with Safety Chain Loops
    Most couplers actually don't come with safety chain loops on them. Reason being that if for some reason the coupler came attached from the trailer you'd want the chains on the trailer frame so that they'd still be effective. Welding a couple of the part # MB38 loops on your trailer would work well.

  • What Is Inside Dimension Of Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole That Fits Trailer Frame

  • Replacement EZ Use Coupler For Horse Trailer With 2" Sleeve Lock Coupler
    I recommend having the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97 welded on in place of the Sleeve-Lock # CA-5196-B style coupler that you currently have. This Demco coupler uses a 2" hitch ball the same as your current coupler and is rated for up to 10,000lbs which is more than the maximum weight your trailer can weigh.

  • Recommended A-Frame Coupler To Replace A Ram A-Frame Coupler With A Sloppy Fit
    The A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5210-B will have the exact same yoke latch as your current Ram coupler, so it will not be adjustable, unfortunately. With that said, if you were over doing the weight capacity and can swing the Dutton Lainson A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DL14008 with 5,000 pounds of capacity, it will have the adjustability you are looking for. If you do need more capacity than that though, your best option will be the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97. This is actually...

  • Troubleshooting Coupler Difficulties With A 2015 Jayco Jay Flight 26BHS Travel Trailer
    The Repair Kit for etrailer and Ram A-Frame Couplers # CA-5100-RK only fits the following couplers # CA5100B, CA-5100-BLB, and # CA-5100-Z, so it would not solve your connection difficulty, unless you had one of these specific couplers. Aside from lubing the hitch ball the only other solution would be to replace your coupler with an easier coupling design like the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch # DM14793-97 or the weld-on version # DM14791-97.
