Camec’s Tow Ball 50mm x 80mm x 7/8in gives you a standard 50mm connection with extra room for gear on the drawbar. The 80mm shank lets you stack stabiliser plates or a bike rack tongue while still getting full nut engagement. A 2500kg rating covers most small to mid sized vans and box trailers so you can hook up the camp setup and get out there without drama. The solid steel towball runs a 7/8in diameter machined shank that suits heavy tongues on common 4WD towbars. Chrome plating handles road spray and grime better than bare steel which matters when you are towing through coastal air or red dust. The 50mm ball profile matches standard trailer couplings so you keep the hitch simple and proven. For the money it is a smart buy that will handle plenty of weekends away.

Q: What tongue thickness will this tow ball suit?

This tow ball uses an 80mm long shank which suits many standard steel towbar tongues. The extra length allows for the tongue thickness plus accessories like stabiliser plates. You still need enough thread left for full nut engagement. Always check the tongue thickness against the shank length before tightening everything down.

Q: Can this tow ball be used with weight distribution or stabiliser hitches?

Yes, the extra long 80mm shank is intended to allow stabiliser blocks. The longer threaded section helps when stacking plates behind the coupling. Just make sure the hitch hardware is drilled for a 7/8in shank. Always keep the total system rating within the lowest rated component.

Q: Is the 2500kg towing capacity the maximum this tow ball can tow?

Yes, 2500kg is the maximum rated towing capacity for this tow ball. The trailer’s loaded mass must not exceed that figure. Your vehicle and towbar may have lower ratings and those limits always apply first. Exceeding any rating can damage gear and shorten its service life.

Q: How should I look after the chrome plated surface?

Keep the ball surface clean and lightly lubricated before towing. A light smear of suitable grease on the 50mm ball helps reduce wear in the coupling. Wipe off grit or rust spots after trips on dusty or salty roads. Covering the ball when not in use can further slow surface corrosion.
