The B&W Hitches TS10040C is a heavy-duty gooseneck coupler engineered for serious towing work. Built around a forged 2-5/16 inch chrome ball and designed to work with B&W's Turnoverball gooseneck hitch system, this coupler delivers the clamping force and corrosion resistance that livestock haulers, equipment operators, and fifth-wheel-to-gooseneck adapter users demand. If you're pulling a gooseneck trailer and need a replacement or upgrade coupler head, this is the unit built to handle the load.
The B&W Turnoverball system is one of the most trusted gooseneck hitch platforms in the truck and trailer industry. The TS10040C coupler head is the business end of that system -- the component that physically locks onto the 2-5/16 inch ball and transfers trailer load directly into the truck frame. Chrome finish on the ball resists corrosion and reduces friction during coupling and uncoupling, which matters when you're hitching up in mud, rain, or freezing conditions.
At 30,000 lb gross trailer weight (GTW) capacity, this coupler is rated for the heaviest gooseneck loads that pickup trucks commonly pull -- loaded livestock trailers, heavy equipment haulers, and large flatbeds. The coupler is designed to pair with the B&W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch installed in the truck bed, ensuring proper ball height alignment and secure lockup.
Standard gooseneck ball size fits the vast majority of gooseneck trailer couplers. Chrome finish resists rust and eases coupling in all weather conditions.
Rated for up to 30,000 lb gross trailer weight -- suitable for heavy livestock trailers, flatbeds, and equipment haulers pulled by properly rated 3/4-ton and 1-ton trucks.
Engineered specifically for the B&W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch family, which installs in the truck bed using existing tie-down pockets -- no drilling required on most applications.
B&W Hitches are known for forged steel components that deliver strength without the porosity risks of cast alternatives. Built to withstand repetitive heavy-load cycles.
B&W's Turnoverball gooseneck hitches are sold under the OEM designation for many trucks, including factory-installed or dealer-installed systems in Ford, GM, Ram, and Toyota platforms. The TS10040C coupler is the 10-series head with the 2-5/16 inch ball in chrome finish -- "C" in the part number designates chrome. If your existing Turnoverball hitch uses a 2-5/16 inch ball and you need to replace a worn, corroded, or damaged coupler head, the TS10040C is the correct replacement unit.
This coupler is also commonly used with B&W's fifth-wheel-to-gooseneck adapter products (such as the Companion series), which let you pull a gooseneck trailer from a fifth-wheel hitch. In those setups, the TS10040C provides the gooseneck-side coupling point.
This coupler works with B&W Turnoverball gooseneck hitches designed for the following truck platforms (when the corresponding B&W hitch is installed):
Always verify that the Turnoverball hitch installed in your truck is sized and rated for the TS10040C coupler head before installation.
