CURT 2" x 2" Receiver Tube 12 in Raw Steel Weld-On with 1/2" Reinforcing Collar

CURT 49120 is a 12-inch, 2" x 2" weld-on receiver tube in raw steel with a 1/2" reinforcing collar and a pre-drilled pin hole for custom towing fabrications.

If you build or modify tow systems, the CURT 49120 receiver tube is a ready-to-weld component designed to be the backbone of custom hitches, extensions, and workshop projects. Made from solid steel with industry-standard interior dimensions, this tube accepts any standard 2" x 2" shank and arrives unfinished so you can weld it into place exactly where you need it. Its simple design makes it a versatile part for fabricators, mechanics, and DIYers who need a dependable, weld-ready receiver section.

What dimensions and fit should I expect from this receiver tube?

The 49120 is built to the common 2" x 2" receiver standard, so it will accept most ball mounts, cargo carriers, and hitch accessories made for 2-inch receivers. Its overall length is 12 inches, providing extra reach or more surface area for welding when creating extensions or custom mounts.

• Internal opening: 2" x 2" to match standard shanks
• Length: 12 inches for better reach and weld contact
• Pre-drilled pin hole included for hitch pin compatibility

How strong and durable is the CURT 49120 for towing projects?

This tube is fabricated from solid steel to offer structural strength suitable for towing fabrication work and heavy-duty shop builds. A 1/2" reinforcing collar at the mouth increases the tube's resistance to deformation where loads concentrate, helping maintain alignment under stress. Keep in mind it ships in a raw finish and requires proper welding and corrosion protection for long-term outdoor use.

• Solid-steel construction for dependable fabrication strength
• 1/2" reinforcing collar at the opening for added rigidity
• Raw finish ready for welding, painting, or coating after installation

What makes this unit easy to install in custom builds?

The CURT 49120 arrives pre-drilled and unpainted so you can position, tack, and weld it without additional preparation. The standard inside dimensions mean you won’t need adapters to fit common 2" accessories. Because it’s a straight, plain tube section, it’s simple to incorporate into extensions, drop receivers, or bespoke hitch assemblies.

• Pre-drilled hole accepts standard hitch pin quickly
• Raw steel finish lets you weld immediately without grinding
• Straight 12" design simplifies measurement and placement

Who this is for: Fabricators, garage mechanics, and hands-on trailer owners who build or modify towing equipment will appreciate the CURT 49120. It’s aimed at users who need a reliable, industry-sized receiver section to weld into custom hitches, extension assemblies, mount brackets, or other towing-related projects. If you require a finished, paint-ready receiver, plan to complete welding and corrosion protection after installation.
