The Flash Steel Ball Mount vs. the New Flash Force Ball Mount

Category News

When towing performance and durability are non-negotiable, Fastway Trailer Products delivers dependable solutions designed to meet heavy-duty needs. Two standout products in our lineup, the FLASH™ STEEL HD ball mount and the FLASH™ FORCE ball mount, offer unique benefits tailored to different towing demands. Understanding these differences can help you make the right choice as you prepare for your next towing project.

Understanding the Core Differences

The FLASH™ FORCE ball mount represents the next step in innovation for those needing ultimate flexibility. It accommodates both 2-1/2 inch and 3-inch receivers, supporting up to 21,000 pounds of trailer weight with the 3-inch model. The dual stainless steel pins make height adjustments quick and simple, which is a valuable feature if you tow different trailers with varying coupler heights. The FORCE also includes a stowable design that rotates beneath the vehicle when not in use, reducing the chances of accidental damage and improving rear clearance.

On the other hand, the FLASH™ STEEL HD ball mount focuses on providing reliable, straightforward strength. It fits 2-1/2 inch receivers and has a maximum towing capacity of 20,000 pounds. This model is designed with a fixed height, which suits operators who tow the same trailer consistently and do not require adjustable settings. Its forged steel construction features a glossy, rust-resistant finish that stands up well to the elements and the wear and tear of regular towing.

Performance and Construction Built for Demanding Jobs

Both models include dual hitch balls, offering 2-inch and 2-5/16-inch options to match most towing couplers. Weight distribution hitch compatibility is critical when dealing with heavier loads, and both models complement Fastway’s full range of towing products seamlessly. While the FORCE emphasizes versatility and the ability to switch trailers effortlessly, the STEEL HD provides confidence through its single-purpose, heavy-duty performance.

The FLASH FORCE uses advanced corrosion-resistant finishing on solid steel to withstand a wide range of environmental conditions, whether you are towing boats, equipment trailers, or utility loads. The STEEL HD’s forged steel body gives it an uncompromising toughness that remains dependable over time, even with repeated exposure to road grime and moisture. Fastway Trailer Products ensures every product meets the standards our customers have come to trust across all their towing applications.

For drivers who tow a variety of trailers and want the added convenience of a stowable design, the FORCE HD delivers. If your focus is on hauling the same trailer with straightforward power and strength, the STEEL HD remains an excellent choice.
