3-Inch Plain Receiver Tube

The Buyers Products RT305808 is a plain receiver tube designed for trailer, plow and towing equipment. It features a three-inch tube with an eight-inch shank and a transparent finish. The tube can be cut to a custom length if a specific size is required.

Suited for custom fabrication

This receiver tube suits fabricators and installers who need a raw, unfinished tube to weld or adapt for a specific hitch build. It is not for buyers who want a finished hitch with a standard pin hole, a corrosion-resistant coating or a rated towing capacity stamped on the part.

Raw tube with modification headroom

The plain tube provides a solid steel base that can be trimmed to the exact length a build demands. It runs out when the application calls for a pre-drilled receiver, a powder-coated surface or a certified weight rating that this unfinished tube does not carry.

Questions about this item

What trailer hitch class matches the 3 inch receiver tube on this RT305808?

A Class IV or Class V hitch with a 3 inch square opening is required for this receiver tube to fit.

Will an existing 2 inch ball mount fit inside the 3 inch tube?

No, a 2 inch shank is too small; you need a 3 inch shank ball mount or a reducer sleeve to use older 2 inch accessories.

How can I confirm the 8 inch shank is seated correctly after installation?

The tube should sit flush against the hitch face with the pin hole aligned, and the locking pin or bolt must pass cleanly through both walls.
