Product Overview
The CURT A-Series Universal 5th Wheel Hitches are designed for customers who want smoother, quieter 5th wheel towing in a flexible above-bed rail-compatible setup. Built for compatible pickup truck applications, this hitch family gives customers a dependable connection point for fifth wheel campers, RV trailers, toy haulers, and other compatible fifth wheel trailers. The universal rail-style approach makes the A-Series a strong option for customers building a traditional 5th wheel towing system using compatible industry-standard base rails and the correct truck mounting components.
The A-Series is built around towing comfort, coupling confidence, and stronger trailer control. Its fully articulating torsion head helps the hitch move with the truck and trailer connection instead of feeling overly rigid. That movement helps support smoother towing over highways, campground roads, fuel stations, driveway transitions, and uneven pavement where the truck and trailer need to work together through changing angles.
CURT adds a cast yoke with poly-torsion inserts to help reduce shock loads and suppress unwanted towing noise. This gives customers a more controlled feel when towing larger RVs, campers, and recreational trailers over long distances. High-strength interlocking jaws wrap around the kingpin to help reduce chucking, improve kingpin contact, and create a more secure connection during travel.
The universal A-Series setup is especially useful for customers who already have compatible above-bed 5th wheel rails or want a rail-based installation that can work with the proper rail and bracket kit. Selected configurations are offered as hitch-only setups, while other versions include compatible universal base rails. This gives customers a way to match the hitch to the truck bed, trailer weight, mounting system, and overall towing setup.
The A-Series lineup includes multiple capacity options so customers can choose the hitch that fits their trailer and truck requirements. A16, A20, A25, and A30 models cover gross trailer weight ratings from 16,000 lbs. up to 30,000 lbs., depending on selected model and application. Customers should always confirm gross trailer weight, vertical load, truck towing capacity, rail compatibility, and the lowest-rated towing component before use.
Hookup and daily operation are made easier with a self-resetting lockable handle, wide head opening, and three-position coupling indicator. The indicator gives customers a quick visual reference for coupling status before towing, while the carbide black powder coat finish helps protect the hitch inside the truck bed. Whether customers are upgrading for RV travel, fifth wheel campers, toy haulers, long-distance towing, seasonal trips, or a universal rail-compatible truck bed setup, the CURT A-Series Universal 5th Wheel Hitches deliver smoother towing support with strong capacity options and easy-to-use coupling features.
