    Product Details

    A20 Series Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch by CURT®. 20000 lbs Towing Capacity. The CURT E16 5th wheel trailer hitch is an economical choice that offers many of the same features found in Q-Series 5th wheel hitches. The E16 has a gross trailer weight rating of 16000 lbs. and can withstand a vertical load up to 4000 lbs. It comes with a dual-pivoting head, 10 degrees of lateral movement and an anti-rattle skid plate to provide a smoother, quieter ride.

    Installation

    The E16 also comes with easy, single-handle operation and a durable carbide powder coat for long-lasting protection against the elements. With four height adjustment settings, the E16 is quick and simple to install, and it is backed by a five-year limited warranty. This 16K 5th wheel hitch head comes attached to the CURT R16 roller. 5th wheel rollers mount easily onto a set of 5th wheel rails or a gooseneck adapter already installed in the bed of your pickup truck. CURT 5th wheel rollers feature solid construction and offer a sturdy mounting place for your 5th wheel hitch, ensuring that none of its towing strength is lost. CURT 5th wheel rollers are also true rolling units, meaning they actually roll on wheels that bear the weight of the trailer rather than simply sliding on hollow rods as seen in competitive models. With a thick operating handle, the roller smoothly rolls the 5th wheel head forward and back, locking securely into each position as desired. CURT rollers also provide up to 12" of displacement as well, unlike the more common 10", to give you a wide range of motion and plenty of space to get your RV or other 5th wheel trailer around any turn.

    Solid Hitch
    Had issues with my previous hitch lots of chucking and noise. Switched to this Power ride 30K, it fixed all that and it handles my 5th wheel like a champ. No noise and I trust it with the heavy loads.

    A16 5th Wheel Wedge Kit
    I made a mistake when I order this item, the need was for a curt E-16k, that's why I order the other one specialy for the E-16, I received it and I'm ok with it, but the first one is useless. Everything was right, the error was mine.

    Great Hitch. But...
    This is a great hitch. The legs fit perfectly in my 2016 Nissan Titan XD factory pucks. I do like that the hitch itself can be easily removed for proper storage. Hitching and un-hitching work seamlessly. My Grand Design Fifth Wheel Trailer came equipped with the Lippert Turning Point Pin Box. The ‘universal’ wedge plate that came with the trailer does not work with the Curt A16. The funnel is a bit too wide and the ‘short side’ of the wedge hits the king pin before the wedge shoulders make contact with the hitch funnel.
