The Putnam Hitch Puts Family Behind Towing

The Putnam hitch is one of the better-known tow hitch packages available in the United States. Putnam Hitch Products USA is a family owned business that has been running since the 1960's.

They started out manufacturing trailer hitch balls and they now have one of the largest selections in the world with over 100 different styles from small, sway control balls to the heavier duty specialty hitch balls that are rated at 30,000lbs. The balls are manufactured to stringent engineering standards in chrome and zinc metals and their 'quick change' conversion ball and shells is a work of art to behold.

Its taken forty years for the company to grow to the size it is today. Based in Bronson, Michigan it has made a fine art of towing equipment with a name that is known and recognized worldwide.

No manufacturer of tow hitch equipment would be complete without a good range of receiver style hitches and Putnam has their own custom design with a removable ball mount section that leaves nothing projecting from the vehicle - no more shin busting.

A Putnam hitch that is enjoying growing popularity is a recently introduced specialized freedom inverted fifth wheel system package. The company is understandably proud of its line of fifth wheel tow hitches that have been painstakingly designed to take trailers weighing up to 30,000lbs.
