Hihaha purple 19cm rotary tow hook ring – 2.5mm thread
Need a straightforward tow hook that does the job without any faff? This Hihaha rotary tow hook ring is a tidy little bit of kit: bright purple so it’s easy to spot, made from metal for strength, and long enough to suit everything from small cars to SUVs and light trucks. It’s worth keeping in the boot for roadside recoveries, track days or moving a car around the yard.
what it is and why it helps
Think of it as a screw-in towing eye that gives you a proper attachment point for a recovery strap or winch hook without damaging the bumper. Handy for short tows, winching a stuck car out of mud or sand, or just shifting a vehicle a short distance. The simple screw-in design means no fiddly fittings to lose — which is a blessing when you’re pressed for time.
key features
- Robust metal construction for dependable strength and good wear resistance during typical recovery work
- 19cm overall length — long enough to get a firm hold and easy to clip onto straps or shackles
- 2.5mm threaded shaft for a secure screw-in fit to the vehicle’s designated towing point — always check your vehicle manual first
- Eye-catching purple finish improves visibility and adds a bit of character to the front or rear bumper
- Supplied as a single tow hook ring, quick to fit and remove when not in use
technical details
Item weight: around 390 g — compact but solid. Material: metal. Thread size: 2.5mm. Length: 19cm. Supplied: 1 piece per pack. Fits many BMW models and a wide range of other vehicles that accept a screw-in towing eye, but confirm thread compatibility with your vehicle’s tow point before using.
practical notes and common questions
Will this tow a heavy trailer? No — it’s designed for vehicle recovery and short-distance towing in emergencies, not for heavy-duty commercial towing or long-distance trailer pulling. Check your vehicle manufacturer’s towing limits and specs first. If your car’s tow point uses a different thread or size, you’ll need an adaptor. Fitting is usually simple: just screw it into the tow eye thread until secure — no special tools required in most cases.
All told, it’s a sensible, no-nonsense accessory that does exactly what most drivers need for occasional towing or recovery — handy, visible and easy to use, so you can stop faffing about and get on with the job.
