Vehiclex Trailer Hitch Pin Lock for 2" Receiver — 5/8" Locking Pin, Black Tubular Key & Anti-Rattle

Whether you tow a boat, camper, bike rack, or cargo carrier, a reliable hitch lock prevents theft and keeps attachments in place during transit. The Vehiclex lock combines hardened carbon steel construction, a weather-resilient finish, and a tubular-key mechanism to deliver dependable security without the bulk of a padlock. Its rubber protective cap and five adjustable O-rings help the lock resist grime, eliminate noise, and fit snugly in common 2" receivers.

How does this lock protect my trailer or rack from theft?

The Vehiclex hitch pin replaces a standard hitch pin with a keyed locking pin that resists straight pull and tampering. The tubular key system is different for each unit, reducing the chance of unauthorized opening, while the hardened steel body increases resistance to cutting and deformation.

• 5/8" locking pin diameter for increased shear strength
• Unique tubular key included — two copies per set
• Carbon steel construction resists bending and forced removal
• Low-profile design discourages bolt-cutter access

Will this fit my trailer hitch and stop rattling on the road?

Designed for standard 2" hitch receivers found on Class III and IV systems, this lock fits bike racks, trailers, and cargo carriers. Five rubber O-rings compress to match the receiver opening, reducing side-to-side play and eliminating rattling noises during travel.

• Guaranteed fit for 2" receiver tubes used on Class III/IV hitches
• Five rubber O-rings provide adjustable snugness and vibration damping
• Compact length clears most hitch-mounted accessories
• Improves ride comfort by minimizing metal-on-metal noise

How does it stand up to weather, dirt, and frequent use?

The Vehiclex lock uses black electrophoretic paint over carbon steel to slow corrosion and withstand road spray and salt. A rubber cap seals the keyway from dust, mud, and moisture, while durable internals keep the tubular lock operating smoothly after repeated use.

• Electrophoretic (e-coat) finish for long-term rust resistance
• Rubber cap protects the key slot from grime and water
• Wear-resistant materials maintain function under heavy use
• Two keys included so you have a spare for quick access

How easy is it to install and use on trips?

Installation is quick: slide the pin through the hitch and insert the locking end, then turn the tubular key to secure. The low-profile design and included spare key make it practical for daily use, seasonal hauling, or long-distance towing without tools.

• Tool-free installation — locks with a simple key turn
• Includes two tubular keys for convenience and backup
• Minimal added length prevents interference with common accessories
• Quick removal when you need fast coupling or storage
