Description
When you’re hooking up heavy implements to your big tractor, you need every attachment point working right. A worn or undersized hitch pin is asking for trouble—especially when you’re pulling 4,000-pound disc harrows or running a commercial mower for hours at a time. This heavy-duty ball hitch pin is built specifically for Category 3 systems and the demanding work that comes with big iron.
What You’re Getting
- Precision 1-1/4 inch diameter that meets Category 3 specifications for tractors in the 80-225 HP range
- Ball-type design that reduces wear on your hitch components while providing smooth articulation under load
- Heat-treated grade 5 steel construction with gold oxide plating that won’t quit when the going gets tough
- Extended length ensures full engagement through both sides of your hitch receiver
- Built-in retaining mechanism prevents the pin from walking out during operation
Built for Real Farm Work
This pin is essential for large-scale operations where you’re moving serious implements like heavy disc harrows, deep-tillage rippers, large spreaders, and commercial-grade finishing mowers. Whether you’re running a 150 HP row-crop tractor on a grain operation or managing a cattle ranch with a utility tractor, this is the connection point between your power and your productivity.
Made to Last
The larger 1-1/4 inch diameter provides significantly more shear strength than smaller pins—critical when you’re dealing with the extreme forces generated by heavy implements and powerful tractors. The heat-treated steel and corrosion-resistant finish mean this pin will handle years of hard use without bending or breaking down.
Installation Notes
Make sure your tractor uses Category 3 three-point hitch before ordering—using an undersized pin in a Cat 3 application creates serious safety risks. Always push the pin completely through both sides of the hitch receiver and secure with the retaining mechanism. Check it regularly for wear or fatigue cracking, especially if you’re doing heavy tillage work.
