The washer and nut included with the Brophy Hitch Ball, part # SC30-C are not stainless steel as the hitch ball is.

We do not offer a stainless hitch ball nut or washer. You may be able to find them at a local hardware store. The shank on this hitch ball is 1-inch diameter and the shank has fine threads(14 threads per inch).

We don't have a combo of the Curt Hitch Ball #C40008 and Curt Ball Mount #C45340. The ball mount is extremely heavy-duty, rated up to 17,000 pounds. I think it's safe to assume you don't have a torque wrench rated up to 450 foot pounds…
