CURT Sway Tab Ball Mount 2x2, 3/4" Rise or 2" Drop — Welded Sway-Control Tab, 7,500 lb Capacity

CURT 45820 is a specialty 2" x 2" ball mount with an integrated welded sway-control tab that lets you attach a CURT sway control unit while towing up to 7,500 lbs.

Built for heavier trailers and tougher conditions, the CURT 45820 Sway Tab Ball Mount combines a standard trailer ball platform with a dedicated sway-control tab so you can add lateral-stability hardware without swapping to a weight-distribution hitch. The mount accepts a standard trailer ball in a 1" hole and provides a 5/8" tab hole sized for CURT sway control balls. Finished in gloss black powder coat, the design resists corrosion, scratching and UV exposure for longer service life on work sites, farms and off-the-beaten-path trips.

How does the sway-control tab integrate with my existing hitch setup?

The welded tab is designed to work with CURT sway control components, giving you a direct attachment point on a standard receiver ball mount. You retain the normal trailer ball location while gaining a separate mounting hole to attach the sway-control ball.

• Fits 2" x 2" receiver tube openings
• 1" trailer ball hole for common ball shanks
• 5/8" diameter sway-control tab hole sized for CURT sway-control balls
• Allows sway unit installation without a weight-distribution hitch

What towing capacities and rise/drop options does this mount support?

This specialty ball mount is rated for important towing loads while keeping tongue weight in check for larger trailers. Choose the unit to match your trailer's height for safe, level towing.

• Gross trailer weight (GTW): 7,500 pounds
• Tongue weight (TW): 750 pounds
• Available in 3/4" rise or 2" drop to level trailer and tow vehicle

What materials and finishes protect the mount in harsh conditions?

Durability is addressed through a robust steel construction and a protective powder-coat finish that prevents rust and surface wear. The gloss black coating also helps maintain appearance under regular use.

• Welded steel construction for strength and stability
• Gloss black powder coat resists corrosion and scratches
• Engineered for farm, trail and heavy-duty roadside use

How do I match this mount with the correct sway-control components?

Pairing is straightforward when you use CURT sway-control parts designed for the tab's dimensions. The tab accepts a 5/8" sway-control ball such as CURT #40093 and the CURT sway control unit #17200 is compatible with the mounting geometry.

• Tab accepts 5/8" diameter sway-control ball (e.g., CURT #40093)
• Designed to work with CURT sway control assembly #17200
• Retains standard trailer ball in its 1" hole for towing

It fits drivers who need a rugged, corrosion-resistant mount for farm work, recreational towing, jobsite hauling or any situation where added lateral stability is useful. Choose this mount when you require a simple installation, standard 2" receiver compatibility, and industry-rated towing capacity for larger loads.
