Hollywood Racks Locking Threaded Hitch Pin Bolt 1/2-13 TPI Black with 8 ft Security Cable — Reduces Rattle, Anti-Theft

Heavy-duty 1/2-13 TPI locking threaded hitch pin bolt with a keyed-alike 8-foot steel security cable that secures your Hollywood Racks bike rack to your vehicle and helps deter theft of bikes.

This locking threaded hitch pin from Hollywood Racks replaces a standard threaded pin with a secure, keyed unit that reduces rack wobble and adds a theft-deterrent cable for bikes. It fits many popular Hollywood Racks models (HR1000, HR1000R, HR200, HR2500, HR6500, HR8500, HR1460E, HR9200) and is compatible with most other hitch racks using a 1/2"-13 TPI threaded hitch pin. The keyed-alike pair simplifies access by using the same key for both the hitch pin and cable lock.

How does this locking hitch pin stop rack movement and rattle?

The threaded locking bolt replaces the factory pin and tightens into the hitch receiver to lock the rack in place. Its threaded design pulls components together, preventing play between the rack and hitch that causes wobble and noise. The lock core secures the bolt so it cannot be removed without the matching key.

• 1/2"-13 TPI threaded bolt for firm, vibration-reducing fit
• Locking head prevents removal and loosening during transit
• Durable finish resists chips that can worsen rattle points

What bikes and racks can I secure with the included 8-foot cable?

The supplied 8-foot keyed-alike steel cable threads through bike frames and around rack arms or hitch components to keep bikes tethered while parked. It’s long enough to secure multiple bikes or wrap around larger frame shapes. The keyed-alike system uses the same key for both the cable and hitch pin for easy single-key operation.

• 8 ft steel cable fits most multi-bike setups and larger frames
• Keyed-alike convenience: same key for hitch pin and cable lock
• Looped ends and protective sleeve to prevent frame scratches

How durable is the construction for outdoor and repeated use?

Two matching keys are included for convenience and replacement handling.
