2-Inch Hitch Cover Rubber Plug

2-inch rubber tow hitch cover: the small detail that protects your receiver tube

This flexible rubber tow hitch cover seals the square opening of your receiver tight. On an open 2-inch trailer hitch, everything gets in: rainwater, road salt, gravel, insects, dirt. A few winters are enough to turn the inside of the tube into a nest of rust, and the next tow bar will no longer fit. This plug costs the price of a tank of windshield washer fluid and eliminates the problem.

A discreet hitch plug that neatly closes off the back

Visually, the effect is immediate: the gaping black square disappears under a solid, slightly domed face that sits flush with the bumper. The vehicle looks finished, not "waiting for an accessory". It's the same effect as a lug nut cover on a rim: no one notices it, but its absence is immediately obvious.

The material is matte, without unwanted shine, and does not reflect the light from the headlights of the vehicle behind. This trailer hitch cover thus remains completely neutral, regardless of the color of your bodywork — a welcome point on SUVs and pickups whose rear is already very visually busy.

The rubber of this 2-inch hitch plug, in detail

The body is molded from a flexible rubber that accepts deformation without cracking. This is exactly what is required of a plug: it must be slightly wider than the tube to compress when inserted and hold by friction, without screws or pins. The peripheral lips press against the edges of the receiver and create a barrier against spray. Unlike a rigid plastic plug, it does not break on the first impact from a trailer and can be removed by hand, without tools.
