Frequently Asked Questions

To determine the size of tow ball you need, you should consider the weight rating and coupling size of your trailer or caravan. The most common tow ball sizes in Australia are 50mm and 1-7/8 inches. To choose the right size, check the specifications provided by the manufacturer of your trailer or caravan. They will indicate the required tow ball size and weight rating. It's crucial to select a tow ball that matches or exceeds the weight rating to ensure safe towing. If you're unsure, our team at Automotive Superstore can assist you in selecting the appropriate tow ball for your specific towing needs.

A tow ball and a tow hitch are two separate components that work together to facilitate towing. The tow ball is the spherical attachment point that connects to the trailer or caravan's coupling. It provides a secure connection and allows for articulation during turns. On the other hand, the tow hitch refers to the receiver or coupling mechanism mounted on the towing vehicle. It receives the tow ball and locks it into place, providing a secure attachment point. Both the tow ball and tow hitch are essential for safe and efficient towing, with the tow ball being the point of connection between the towing vehicle and the load.

Greasing a tow ball is recommended to reduce friction and prevent rust or corrosion, ensuring a smoother towing experience. Applying a thin layer of grease on the tow ball's surface can help reduce wear and tear and make coupling and uncoupling easier. However, it's important not to apply excessive grease that could attract dirt. Clean the tow ball thoroughly before greasing and regularly inspect it for any signs of damage, wear or debris.
