HITCH LOCK FOR B&W 2 IN/2.5 IN TOW AND STOW - FITS HITCH STEP ONLY

A hitch lock for B&W Tow & Stow (2-inch and 2.5-inch models) is a specialized anti-theft device designed to secure the hitch step attachment to the ball mount, preventing unauthorized removal.

🔧 Function & Purpose

• Primary function: Locks the hitch step attachment in place on a B&W Tow & Stow system
• Prevents theft of the step accessory when the vehicle is parked
• Maintains a secure connection between the hitch step and the adjustable ball mount

⚙️ Key Features

• Custom fit design: Specifically engineered for B&W Tow & Stow hitches in 2" and 2.5" receiver sizes
• Hitch step only compatibility: Not intended for ball mount or full hitch assembly locking—only for the step attachment
• Heavy-duty construction: Typically made from machined stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance
• Anti-theft security: Uses a locking pin mechanism (often keyed) to deter tampering or removal
• Weather-resistant: Designed with seals or caps to protect against dirt, water, and rust

📏 Typical Specifications

• Pin size: ~5/8" diameter
• Span: Around 4–4.5 inches (varies slightly by model)
• Load rating: Commonly rated up to ~21,000 lbs shear strength depending on model

🚗 How It Works

1. Insert the hitch step into the Tow & Stow mount
2. Align the pin holes
3. Slide the locking pin through
4. Secure with the key lock mechanism

This ensures the hitch step stays firmly attached and cannot be removed without the key
