CZC Auto trailer hitch lock – universal tow ball coupler security (yellow)
Keep your trailer, caravan or horsebox secure without faffing about. This CZC Auto trailer hitch lock is a straightforward, heavy‑duty deterrent that sits where the tow ball would normally go, stopping anyone from hooking up and driving off. It’s bright and obvious, built to take a battering, and ideal if you’re leaving a trailer overnight or on a site.
Key features
- Universal compatibility: ratchet adjusts through 11 locking positions to cover a gap of roughly 1–5 cm and fits most 50 mm style couplers — also works with 1‑7/8″, 2″ and 2‑5/16″ couplers.
- Rugged construction: 13 mm steel U‑shaped bar with chrome plating and an aluminium alloy body finished in a bright yellow powder coat for corrosion resistance and high visibility.
- Anti‑theft protection: designed to resist picking, drilling and prying, so it isn’t an easy target for opportunist thieves.
- Easy to use: simply slide it over the coupler like a tow ball and lock — no special tools or faffy setup required.
- Practical extras: supplied with two safety keys, a 30‑day money‑back guarantee and a 12‑month warranty for peace of mind.

A couple of practical notes: it’s a very sturdy device, but no lock is completely theft‑proof, so use it alongside sensible parking choices and, where possible, CCTV or secure storage. The ratchet offers a small range of adjustment, so check the fit if your coupler is an unusual size before leaving it overnight.
Finally, the aftercare is straightforward: you’ve got 30 days to return the item if it’s not right and a 12‑month warranty covering quality issues, with replacement or a full refund available for qualifying problems. Two keys are supplied, so you won’t be scrabbling about for spares when you need them.
