Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at a 2.5" receiver tube. Now, the 2.5" measurement is the hitch opening, so the opening measures 2.5" tall, by 2.5" wide. This unit is made from a carbon steel construction with a nice raw finish, so that way you can prime and paint it to match whatever it is that you're installing this on. What you're going to do is designs allow you to create or fabricate a piece of custom towing equipment. It is a weld-on installation. The overall length, measuring edge to edge gives us a measurement of 18".
The receiver tube has a 5/8" diameter hitch pin hole, which will accept a standard 5/8" diameter pin or hitch lock, to secure your hitch related items and accessories inside the receiver tube. From the front of the hitch opening to the center of the hitch pin hole, measures 2.5", it has the collar right here welded to the opening. This unit features a maximum gross trailer weight capacity of up to 20,000 pounds. And that's going to do it for today's look at the 2.5" receiver tube.
Average Customer Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (28 Customer Reviews)
I was looking for a receiver tube that can handle 2-12" ID mounts for a heavy duty project--the ability to tow a Rose Parade float. Due to recent rule changes from the Pasadena Tournament of Roses, we are required to add rear tow capabilities to our float chassis. Floats are not light weight vehicles, so I needed something with strength--this fit the bill.
It’s ok, but you should make a longer o ne.
Excellent service. Shipping was fast. So much better then [online store]!
Thank you
Etrailer did an awesome job getting me the part earlier than expected. They watched my order and provided excellent customer service! The 2.5" receiver hitch is great quality and I will definitely use etrailer again!
Been ordering parts from etrailer for quite sometime and very happy with their stock, ordering, and shipping. This particular order was for the receiver tube. Got it quickly and it's already installed. Gave them a 5 star rating and they're worth it!
Only wish it had the option of a hole in the other end as well! So I could use it as a hitch extender.
Solid built
Value for the money for sure compared to what else is out there
Exactly what I wanted, showed up very q uickly.
Well made. We are upgrading some of our hitches from class 4 to class 5. I will be installing another one soon.
Had to make a custom hitch for a flatbed. Nice looking piece/s and was shipped immediately
Good, fast, and easy. Will definitely do business again
Well made. Heavy duty w/ cast iron terminal ring!
