GusHill A-Frame Trailer Coupler 2-5/16" Ball — 14,000 lb Capacity, Trigger Latch, Black E-Coat

GusHill USA GH25200 is a heavy-duty A-frame trailer coupler built for 2-5/16" hitch balls, rated to handle up to 14,000 lbs gross trailer weight with a 500 lb tongue load.

This A-frame coupler is engineered for secure, repeatable connections on boat, camper, and utility trailers with an A-frame tongue. Finished in a durable black e-coating and featuring a trigger latch that accepts a safety pin or coupler lock, it combines corrosion resistance with reliable retention. Its Class 2 rating and clearly defined tongue capacity make it suited for heavier towing needs where fit and strength matter.

How does this coupler ensure a tight, safe connection?

The GH25200 uses a trigger-style latch that locks the 2-5/16" ball into place and accepts a safety pin or coupler lock (sold separately) for added security. The latch design reduces movement and helps prevent accidental uncoupling during transit.

• Trigger latch accepts standard safety pin or coupler lock for extra retention
• Precisely machined ball pocket for consistent engagement on repeated use
• Positive lock geometry minimizes play between ball and coupler

Will this coupler resist corrosion and outdoor wear?

Yes — the coupler is coated with a tough black E-coating that helps protect the steel from rust, moisture, and road salt. While not impervious to all environments, the finish extends service life when paired with routine inspection and maintenance.

• Black E-coating provides a weather-resistant barrier
• Recommended regular lubrication and inspections to prolong life
• Suitable for boat, camper, and utility trailer applications with exposure to elements

How does this coupler fit A-frame trailers and what installation should I expect?
