Trailer Weight Capacity for Weight Distribution Shank # 90-02-4900

Question

Question:

For your 2 1/2inch Equalizer shank part # EQ90-02-4900, you list a tongue weight specification, but I dont see a trailer weight rating. I assume from purchasing other Equalizer shanks that it is 16,000 lbs., but wanted to check to verify. Thanks!
