Incredibly robust frame, incorporating the following features to make it as user-friendly as possible.
Changeable high tensile tow hook with a towing capacity of up to 15 ton, as well as a bolt on towing tongue wear plate. Clever design incorporating swept centre tower results in great vision of the pin from the tractor seat.
A Tow Ball attachment is also available for pulling conventional trailers.

User centric design has been the focus of this most recent development of the tow hitch, and this can be seen in the excellent vision of the hook from the tractor seat.
We've done everything we can think of to make this draw bar hitch as durable as possible. This even comes down to details like the rope, which is protected with a 316 stainless steel thimble and hand swaged securely with a copper ferrule. Not just any stainless - 316 stainless is alloyed with molybdenum to make it more resistant to the highly corrosive effluent found on farms.
I got hold of Rata when I needed a Silage Grab, Forks & Tow Hitch. From past experience I had been impressed with the durability & simplicity of the gear. The Silage Grab has performed very well & the Tow Hitch makes the job so much easier, this one is well up there!
Very high rated - so I can virtually pick up any load.
They've definitely helped me out!
