The shank on the # HES0 Hitch Extender measures 1-1/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch. The extender will insert into your 1-1/4 inch receiver and will provide 10 inches of extension. Keep in mind that using the extender will reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50 percent.

You can see the dimension in the photo I have edited for you.
