American Quality:

B&W uses American-made steel and performs all welds in-house, and their products are SAE-J2638 certified. The hitch's wide stance was engineered for improved stability and strength. The RVK3255 includes both the base (86 lbs) and coupler (52 lbs) for a complete installation, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

This hitch offers an excellent balance of performance and value, delivering many of the premium features found in B&W's flagship Companion series at a more accessible price point.
