What is the Difference Between the 3300 and 3400 Series Ball Mounts from Anderson
Question:
What is the difference between the 3300 Series and 3400 Series Anderson Hitch?
asked by: Fred S
Expert Reply:
The 3300 series from Anderson, like part # AM3298, has a powder coat finish and is made of steel. The 3400 series, like part # AM3411, is made of aluminum so it have a better looking finish and will not rust.
Another difference is that the 3300 series tends to be for more of a heavy-duty application because they can handle more weight. The 3400 series can handle weight up to 10,000 lbs so it cannot be used for as heavy-duty applications.
I spoke with my contact at Anderson who confirmed this.
