Built to take on serious towing jobs, the CURT 2-5/16" SecureLatch™ Gooseneck Coupler delivers reliable strength, smart engineering, and straightforward operation for heavy-duty trailers. With a 2-5/16" ball socket rated for 30,000 lbs. GTWR and 7,500 lbs. tongue weight, it’s designed to confidently handle large loads without compromise. This coupler features a patented auto-resetting pin that automatically locks onto the ball during hookup, helping ensure a secure connection every time. Its intuitive latch design reduces the chance of false latching, giving you added assurance before you pull away. A cone-shaped opening helps guide the ball into place, allowing for quicker, smoother hookups even when alignment isn’t perfect. For added versatility, the coupler offers 8" of length adjustment and fits virtually all 4" square-tube stems. The ergonomic handle is designed for easy, one-handed use, while compatibility with coupler locks adds an extra layer of security when the trailer is parked. Manufactured from heavy-duty cast steel, the CURT SecureLatch™ gooseneck coupler is built for long-term durability and dependable towing performance. A carbide powder coat finish helps protect against wear and corrosion, and the coupler is tested to meet SAE J2638 safety standards. Backed by a CURT limited lifetime warranty, including one-year coverage on the finish and parts, it’s a dependable solution for demanding gooseneck applications.
