Buyers Products, a manufacturer in the work truck and trailer equipment industry, announces a new series of 2 ½-inch towing accessories to accommodate growing demand with 2 ½-inch hitches.

“With more and more trucks using larger 2 ½-inch receivers and hitches, we’re excited to expand our lineup of hitches, receiver tubes, and adapters in 2023,” said Dan Doerr, director of new product development at Buyers Products. “We’ve noticed a shift in the industry from the standard 2-inch to 2 ½-inch and are proud to offer these new additions at competitive prices.”

The new line features:

  • 2 ½ inch bolt-on receiver tube.
  • Stowable, adjustable tri-ball hitch for 2 ½-inch hitch receivers. 
  • 2 ½-inch to 2-inch receiver tube adapter.

The new bolt-on receiver tube is rated for 20,000 pounds maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) and 2,000 pounds maximum vertical load, and easily bolts to any hitch plate with standard pintle hook bolt patterns.
