AUTOBOTS Shackle Hitch Receiver 2-inch Tow Adapter — Red/Black, Forged Steel 45,000 lb

Built for off-road recovery, trailer work and heavy towing, this AUTOBOTS 2" shackle hitch receiver combines engineered strength with corrosion protection and user-friendly mounting options. It fits any standard 2-inch trailer receiver and includes a 5/8" screw pin, 3/4" shackle isolator, and a dual-pin hole layout so D-rings can swing vertically or horizontally for different recovery angles.

How strong and durable is this hitch for recovery work?

The receiver is forged from high-strength steel with a rated break strength of 45,000 lbs, providing a robust backbone for heavy towing and winch-recovery setups. A black powder coat finish plus electro-galvanized plating add multiple layers of corrosion resistance for prolonged outdoor use.

• Forged steel body with 45,000 lb break strength
• Electro-galvanized steel base layer against rust
• Durable black powder-coat finish for abrasion and weather protection
• Silicone isolators prevent metal-on-metal scratching

What mounting options and hardware are included?

Installation is straightforward: the shackle hitch uses a standard 5/8" screw pin and comes with a 3/4" shackle isolator and washer for secure attachment. The dual hitch pin hole design gives you the option to orient the D-rings horizontally or vertically depending on vehicle geometry and recovery needs.

• Fits all standard 2" tow receivers
• 5/8" screw pin included for secure locking
• 3/4" shackle isolator and washer for stability and protection
• Dual pin holes allow horizontal or vertical D-ring swing

Can this hitch resist rust and harsh environmental conditions?

Yes — the combination of electro-galvanized steel and a heavy-duty powder coat is designed to slow corrosion and stand up to mud, salt, and frequent use. While no coating makes a product impervious, this layered protection significantly extends service life compared with bare steel parts.

• Electro-galvanized finish for base-level anticorrosion
• Black powder coat for additional barrier protection
• Silicone isolators reduce abrasion where parts contact
• Suitable for repeated outdoor and off-road exposure
