Very affordable deterrent that adds that little bit more security.

Great locks!! I feel a lot better leaving all three of my trailers at home with these locks on my trailers! Definitely recommend!

Doesn't fit securely. It seems like there are several ways to lock a trailer. Can't see how this one ever works well
by: Li Zhang01/20/2019
It's a great product. It looks good on the trailer, and you can see it from very afar. And there is no way to saw it off, break it apart, or something like that. The construction is basically rounded, and there is nowhere you can find a starting point to place a saw or breakaway device on it. I have also bought different lock from Reese, and it looks wimpy, and easy to take it apart, or saw it off as some reviews have suggested. It's also easy to put it on and take it off. Just love the product. Here I attach some pictures in the campgrounds, etc.

I have multiple trailers with different ball hitch sizes and Master Lock fits all of them well.
by: Ben 03/22/2024
The items arrived and were in perfect condition. But the most impressive thing about eTrailer is the great service and expertise that they provide. The items I purchased could have been purchased locally, but I prefer to purchase all the items for my trailer and related objects from eTrailer due to their superior service and advice.

It went on and off easy. Seems well built time will tell.
etrailer was great to work with and it got faster than expected.
by: Douglas12/15/2019
Recently bought a boat and the trailer did not have any way to lock the tongue that I could see. After seeing that my stepson had a trailer with this style lock on it and seeing that it would be virtually impossible to pry it off I did some research. I have purchased from etrailer in the past and trust them to only sell the best. I ordered it and received it in a timely manner. It fits perfectly and I now feel my trailer and boat are secure. Who would doubt the Master Lock brand anyway!?!

Fit my boat trailer perfectly
by: Smithsonite05/26/2022
Glad to see they went back to the original design. I have a chrome colored one I bought 13 years ago that is this style, still working. About 10 years ago I bought a 2nd one for my other trailer, and it was nothing like this one - cheap plastic everywhere, could easily be defeated. Backed into it once, and all the plastic broke off revealing just how flimsy it was. Was pleasantly surprised to see Master Lock went back to this much better design. I expect to get over 10 years out of this one.

Working great! No issues whatsoever. I keep the moving parts, including the key tumbler well lubed with white lithium grease, so this one is going to last.

This is my second order from etrailers.com and the experience was rough due to the postal service on my first order but the staff was amazing at helping me work to find the shipment and even called my local post office. I was sold on this company and now my church uses them for all our trailer needs. They are extremely good at communications and updated me every step of the way including who worked with my package and even contacting me to ask if I wanted an alternative part that would have been here sooner. I love working with this company!

Doesn't fit on a 2 5/16 equipment trailer. Made for small, lawn-mower trailers.

I am sorry this coupler lock did not work for you. I think the hump on top of your coupler is the culprit. I think item # C48CR would fit better.

It’s not exactly like we want. But for a lip roll tongue it fits. Wish they made the others for lip roll tongues instead of flat tongue…

Good strong product. Simple to use.

Got this coupler lock for my boat trailer, easy to put on and take off.
So far it is working as expected, as do all the products I have purchased so far from etrailer.
by: Robert01/14/2018
I feel much better about parking my trailer on the street with this lock on the hitch. Not only does it lock up the hitch securely but the bright red color signals to prospective thieves that this trailer cannot be towed.
It is easy to attach and easy to remove. Also very compact so it can be stored easily. The shipping time was less than I expected. etrailer.com is my goto supplier for my trailer accessories.

I will recommend them to everybody and will be ordering with them again real soon ! It was an easy and excellent experience. Great customer service too ! Thanks etrailer !

Must be working... my trailer hasnt been stolen. I use every time in storage and at campgrounds. Easy to use.. Adjusts to fit snugly to coupler.. Doesnt bind up when installing or removing.. design much easier to use than some others.

Went right on my hitch, Thank You
by: brandon 08/25/2016
This is a terrific design since unlike padlocks, can't easily be cut with bolt cutters. I like the bright red color which tells a thief there is a lock to deal with from a distance. I think someone who wants your trailer can probably defeat any system you use, so the goal is to make it tough as possible and I think this lock does that.
by: Steven 02/21/2024
So far the product looks, feels and works great. Shipping was very fast.
by: Michael11/19/2019
Nice tool, I like that it will adjust easily for different depths so it will fit more than one size trailer tongue. It pulls in snug and with a couple firm smacks with a 2 pound hammer is still works just fine.

- Will Master Lock Coupler Lock # ML389DAT Fit Big Tex 70DM-18 Car HaulerThe Master Lock Trailer Coupler Lock # ML389DAT will work well on your Big Tex 70DM 18 car trailer. I looked up pictures of the trailer and found that it has a collar lock style coupler which we know this lock works great with. I attached a picture of this lock used on a similar coupler for you to check out as well.

- Bolt-On A-Frame 2-5/16 Inch Ball Trailer Coupler For 1973 AirstreamThere is one A-frame coupler that accepts a 2-5/16" hitch ball and fits the bill perfectly that I really like, which is from Demco: - Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM16680-52 The reason I like this Demco coupler so much is because of its super easy to use latch system, called an eZ-Latch, which just stays closed all the time, until the coupler goes over the hitch ball and it just snaps on. That's all there is to it. This is also a bolt-on coupler like you wanted, and is rated...
view full answer... - Does Master Lock Trailer Coupler Lock # ML389DAT Come with a Cover for the Key HoleThe Master Lock Trailer Coupler Lock # ML389DAT does not come with a cover for the key hole. The covers are a bit of a double edged sword though. On one hand they keep out dirt and debris, but on the other they trap moisture in the lock core which can cause corrosion to build.

The lock will secure inside and around the coupler to keep somebody from hooking it up a different tow vehicle. I particularly like the bright red finish on the lock that does a good job of preventing potential thieves from even trying, as it's a clear indication that a lock is in place. I have attached a short...
view full answer... - Construction of Master Lock # ML389DAT Trailer Coupler LockThe Master Lock # ML389DAT is constructed of steel, as opposed to pot metal. Pot metal is an alloy made of non-ferrous metals with low melting points like zinc, lead, copper, tin and aluminum. The lock wouldn't shatter or crack if struck by a hammer, unless extraordinary means like liquid nitrogen were used on the lock first. Although just about any lock can be defeated by a determined criminal if they are motivated enough and have enough time, the rugged construction of the # ML389DAT...
view full answer... - Can Weight Distribution Hitch Get Locked to Trailer & Lock For TrailerSo for a weight distribution hitch like the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET, you'll take it off when you get to your destination, and what a lot of people do is separate the arms and the head unit and put them in whatever storage they have available, or their tow vehicle. There isn't a way to lock the a WDH to the trailer, which is why it gets taken apart and off. Then you can use a standard coupler lock for your trailer like the Master Lock Heavy-Duty Coupler and Latch Lock Combo for 1-7/8",...

- Recommended Weight Distribution System With Sway Control For 29 Foot Travel TrailerIt sounds like you've done some research and I like the conclusion. The Reese Strait-Line system is the very best in my opinion for controlling sway by actively fighting against it with spring trunnion bars that are hot rolled and the dual cam system. For your total tongue weight, you will also want to account for any cargo weight in the back of your towing vehicle behind the rear axle in addition to your loaded trailer tongue weight. With this considered, you want a system that has...
view full answer... - Trailer Coupler Lock for a Coupler with Large LipYou can use Master Lock # ML389DAT for coupler # CTA-280. Another option is to use a latch lock so that the latch cannot be opened. Most latches, if they can accept a lock, will take a 1/4 diameter pin such as # e98888 or # 3008.

For the most versatile keyed alike trailer coupler lock, I recommend the Fastway Universal Trailer Coupler Lock # FA86-0015-318. This coupler lock uses a bar to surround the coupler and fill the hitch ball hole. These are available via multiple part numbers, each part number corresponds to its key number. You can get keyed alike locks by simply purchasing multiples of the same part number. This lock also offers...

These locks are an inexpensive and large deterrent to those looking to steal a trailer. There is no absolute way to prevent theft of a coupler if somebody was determined enough, but it would be extraordinarily unusual for someone to go through the amount of time, trouble, and risk of unbolting a coupler for the purposes of taking the coupler...

- Comparing Demco and Titan Disc Brake Actuators with Electric LockoutsThat is a tough question to answer as both are excellent manufacturers with their respective pros/cons. In regards to brake actuators, they both make and manufacture them here in the U.S.A. and they both come with a one year warranty. In regards to differences, Demco makes a wide range of different trailer and towing products whereas Titan specializes more in trailer brakes. WIth that being said we have had more positive feedback from Titan products in regards to trailer brakes, actuator...

I recommend setting the multifit coupler for the largest hitch ball setting prior to adding the lock so it will not be removable when loosening the ball connection.

I hate to hear that you are not happy with the coupler lock. Would you be able to send a picture or describe in more detail how it is not fitting for you.
