1. 2 In 1 Integrated Design: Anti Slip Step + Hitch Ball Towing Function
Engineered to solve frequent accessory swapping pain points for 2 inch hitch receiver owners. This unit combines safe rear vehicle access step and standard hitch ball towing connection in one assembly. Textured anti slip tread maintains reliable grip in wet, muddy, snowy or dusty trail conditions for safe boarding. Built in standard hitch ball supports towing utility trailers, boat trailers, campers and ATV UTV trailers. Retractable fold up structure stows the step platform out of the way while towing or highway cruising. Verified static stepping load and hitch ball towing capacity test reports can be provided based on actual batch order requests. Important: Do NOT exceed the rated towing capacity of your vehicle, hitch receiver and hitch ball assembly.
2. Heavy Gauge Carbon Steel Robust All Welded Construction
The whole foldable hitch step with hitch ball assembly is fabricated from high quality heavy gauge carbon steel. Main step platform, reinforced folding hinge mechanism, 2 inch receiver insert tube and integrated hitch ball base go through precision welding and structural reinforcement. Reinforced hinge pivot points resist repeated folding unfolding cycles. Thick wall steel construction minimizes risks of bending, twisting or weld joint failure under repeated daily stepping and trailer towing cycles for long term service life. The hitch ball mounting base is reinforced to disperse tongue weight stress during hauling.
3. Universal 2 Inch Hitch Receiver Simple Install Fold Up Design
Designed for all standard 2 inch class III V hitch receivers on pickups, SUVs, 4×4 and RV vehicles. Complete kit includes main foldable hitch step hitch ball body, hitch pin, clip and all required installation hardware. No vehicle drilling or permanent modification is needed. Simply slide the square insert tube into the 2 inch receiver, secure firmly with hitch pin and clip within minutes. Toggle the folding hinge: deploy step outward for truck bed access; fold platform upward and lock for trailer towing or highway driving. Fast complete removal when you need to free up the hitch receiver for other accessories.
4. Durable Powder Painted Anti Corrosion Surface Finishing
Whole hitch step assembly adopts heavy duty powder painted coating. This surface treatment delivers excellent scratch resistance against flying gravel, abrasion from boot soles and anti rust performance for mud, rain, road dirt and coastal salt spray. The hitch ball adopts polished protective finish for smooth trailer coupler engagement. Multiple solid color selections are available for fleet wide equipment color coding and quick visual identification for bulk order customers. Custom color coating can be negotiated for OEM ODM projects.
