How does the 900B handle different trailer couplers?

This Convert-A-Ball shank accepts interchangeable balls to match the most common coupler sizes, so one hitch can fit several trailers. Swapping balls is straightforward and keeps you prepared for varied loads without extra hardware clutter.

• Includes three balls: 1-7/8", 2", 2-5/16".
• Secure threaded attachment for each ball for reliable connection.
• Compatible with standard trailer couplers used across light- and medium-duty trailers.

What towing capacity and strength does this shank provide?

The 900B shank is rated for a 10,000 lb gross trailer weight when paired with the appropriate ball and vehicle rating. Its solid steel core and chrome-like nickel plating offer the mechanical strength needed for demanding towing tasks while resisting surface damage from road conditions.

• 10,000 pound maximum gross trailer weight rating.
• Robust chrome-plated solid steel construction for load-bearing strength.
• Designed to meet common towing safety expectations when used correctly.

How does the finish affect maintenance and corrosion resistance?

The nickel/chrome-style plating gives the shank a smooth, rust-resistant surface that reduces corrosion from moisture, salt, and debris. This finish makes cleaning easier and extends service life compared with uncoated steel, especially in coastal or winter conditions.

• Nickel-plated surface resists rust and pitting.
• Smoother surface sheds grime and road salt, simplifying maintenance.
• Durable finish preserves appearance under regular use.

How compact and portable is the Convert-A-Ball 900B?

With a 1" diameter and a 2-1/4" shank length, the 900B is designed to be compact enough for easy swapping and storage. The included balls allow you to carry a single hitch assembly instead of multiple fixed hitches, saving trunk or garage space.

• Shank diameter: 1" for common receiver compatibility.
• Shank length: 2-1/4", compact for storage and handling.
• Three-ball kit reduces the need for multiple hitch heads.

Who is this for? The Convert-A-Ball 900B is ideal for recreational vehicle owners, small-business haulers, and anyone who frequently switches between trailers with different coupler sizes. If you tow boats, utility trailers, campers, or landscaping equipment and want one durable, low-maintenance hitch solution that adapts to multiple trailers, this nickel-plated interchangeable shank kit simplifies setup and reduces gear clutter.
