About B&W Trailer Hitches

B&W Trailer Hitches has been engineering and manufacturing premium towing products in Humboldt, Kansas since 1987. B&W was founded with a focus on building exceptional truck beds, but it was an early breakthrough in gooseneck hitch design that truly put the brand on the map. Within a year of opening its doors, B&W introduced the Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch — a revolutionary under-bed mounting system that bolted directly to the truck frame using existing holes, requiring no bed removal, drilling, or welding. That same clean-bed philosophy still defines every product the company makes today.

B&W fifth wheel hitches are among the most trusted in the industry. The flagship Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch builds directly on the Turnoverball platform, sharing the same discreet under-bed mounting system so truck owners can tow a fifth wheel or a gooseneck with a single setup. When not towing, the Companion removes completely — leaving a clean, unobstructed truck bed. It features fully articulating jaws that pivot in four directions, polyurethane bushings for a quiet, rattle-free ride, and a cam-actuated handle that prevents accidental release. The result is a hitch engineered for both safety and everyday convenience.

For trucks equipped with factory OEM puck systems, B&W offers a full range of fifth wheel hitch base assemblies designed to mate seamlessly with the factory platforms found in Ford, GM, and Ram HD trucks. These purpose-built bases bring the same Companion coupler head — proven over years of hard use — to truck owners who prefer to leverage their factory prep packages.

Beyond fifth wheel and gooseneck products, B&W's lineup extends to the Tow & Stow Adjustable Ball Mount, which accommodates multiple ball sizes and stows neatly under the vehicle, and the Continuum Weight Distribution Hitch for balanced, controlled towing of heavy loads. Every B&W product is manufactured using American-made materials right in Humboldt, Kansas, reflecting the brand's long-standing commitment to domestic craftsmanship.
