Hayman Reese Weight Distributing Hitches are available in, 550 (250kg), 750 (340kg) and 1,000(455kg) capacity ball load weights.

Towing a caravan, boat, horse float of heavy trailer can apply a heavy additional weight on the rear of your vehicle which is referred to as the ball weight. The weight will be carried by the rear wheels which will raise the front of the vehicle, thereby reducing the weight on the front wheels. As a result the vehicle will experience a reduction in steering and braking control.

The Weight Distributing Hitch is designed to ensure a return to even distribution of weight across all wheels of the tow vehicle and trailer. This even distribution of weight ensures that positive steering and braking control is maintained.
