The CURT 23518 Trailer Hitch Lock is a reliable, key-operated security solution designed to protect your ball mount and towing accessories from theft. Perfect for boat owners, campers, and ATV enthusiasts, this lock ensures your property remains safely attached to your vehicle.

Product Description

Unlike a standard hitch pin and clip that only holds your ball mount in place, the CURT 23518 hitch lock provides an essential layer of security. By replacing your standard pin with this locking mechanism, you prevent unauthorized parties from detaching your trailer or hitch-mounted accessories. Featuring a durable barbell design, this lock fits 2-inch receiver tubes and uses a 5/8-inch pin diameter. It is simple to operate with a 1/4-turn key mechanism and includes a protective dust cap to shield the lock from the elements, ensuring longevity and consistent performance.
