I'm new at this, what does the "Max Tongue Weight" of 500 lbs mean. Thanks

I believe over 500 lbs breaks the weld, however the weight (2500lbs) of say a boat n trailer is distrubited over the entire lenght not all on the ball.

As a general rule tongue weight is 10% .... This hitch has a t.w. rating of 1400# .. So its up to u

Precor suggest that you do not use it if your weight exceeds 500 pounds. And not to run on it if you weigh 350 pounds or more.

The 3500 lb weight is the weight of the camper. You need to be more concerned with tongue weight when it comes to selecting the correct jack. I would assume your tongue weight is between 500-600 pounds. The Barker 3500 will easily lift that weight.

most likely you have a 1 inch hitch in your weight limit will be your determining factor check your owners manual particularly the tongue weight

Sure it will work, but whether you should is up to you. That is an awful lot of tongue weight .

The specifics are included in this listing, the item weight is 147.2lbs, and it is rated to handle trailers up to 16,000lbs with 4,000lbs of tongue weight. Thanks-AutoAccessories4Less

If you drop all the way to bottom setting you can get 7.5 inches. That is the max, however. I don't know about the extra 200 lbs on the tongue.

It's under the produce specifications. Most tables can support 500 pounds. This one states 600 lbs.

I use it with a tow bar so I'm not concerned about tongue weight. It seems that it would would work for a lot more than a hundred pounds. It is very well made with lots of very strong welds.

This hitch has a tongue weight listing for 1,400 pounds. I am sure there is a hedge built into this but I would not recommend it for hauling any distance or at any speed.

Julie, The Eaz-Lift and other brands have listed in their specifications what the maximum tongue weight they will withstand. The 48058 Eite will handle the 550 lb tongue weight.

TotalGym say it's rated to 400lbs. I weigh 167 and use about 40 lbs of weight and mine creaks alarmingly with or without the weight. It seems to depend on where you sit. I'm not convinced that mine would take 400lbs.

The 1200lb trunnion bar is heavier and can handle up to a 1200lb tongue weight. If your tongue weight is far less it can give you a rougher ride. Logically the 800lb trunnion is not heavy duty enough to handle much heavier tongue weights. You can vary your tongue weight somewhat to "fit your trunnion by loading your trailer heavier or lighter on the tongue. (That said, if you get your tongue weight to light you can have problems with trailer sway.

The sticker on mine says max weight 500 lbs. I purchased mine when I was close to 400 pounds. I am now down to 320, this rollator has been a blessing.

All models are 10,000 pound GTWR and a 1500 pound tongue weight limit. Quite substantial!A great hitch, very nice looking and super functional. I get quite a few envious comments on it, worth the money.

Depending on the rating mine are 6000 lb rating. But if yur using it to hold the tongue your fine.
