The CURT A20 Series — Premium 20K 5th Wheel Hitch

The CURT A-Series is CURT's premium 5th wheel hitch line — engineered with patented articulating head geometry, interlocking dual-jaw design, and self-resetting handle operation. The A20 is the 20,000 lb capacity variant — the step up from the A16 for larger 5th wheels, mid-size toy haulers, and heavier commercial trailers. Meaningful highlights:

  • 20,000 lb gross trailer weight (GTW) — handles larger 5th wheel RVs, toy haulers, and heavier commercial trailers
  • 5,000 lb vertical load capacity — 1,000 lb more than A16, meaningful for larger trailers with heavier pin weights
  • ⭐ Patented articulating torsion head (Patent #8,827,298) — cast yoke with poly-torsion inserts suppresses shock loads and reduces noise
  • ⭐ Self-resetting single-throw handle — pull once to couple/uncouple; handle automatically returns to ready-to-couple position after uncoupling
  • ⭐ High-strength interlocking dual jaws — fully wrap the kingpin for minimal movement and noise
  • ⭐ Three-position color-coded coupling indicator — red (uncouple) / yellow (couple) / green (tow) — visible from the truck cab
  • ⭐ Extra-wide head opening — makes coupling easier, especially in low-visibility conditions
  • ⭐ Sidewinder pin box compatible — approved for use with Sidewinder-style turret pin boxes
  • Four height adjustment settings (13"–17" range)
  • Carbide black powder coat finish
  • Backed by CURT's limited lifetime warranty (one-year finish, one-year parts)

⭐ Complete Premium Slider + Puck Adapter Package

Standout convenience benefit: this kit bundles everything you need for slider-equipped premium 20K 5th wheel towing on a puck-equipped truck. Includes:

  • A20 5th wheel hitch head — premium 20K with articulating torsion head
  • CURT S20 slider — true rolling design with ~12" of displacement
  • Puck-system adapter — drops directly into your Chevy/GMC/Ford HD factory puck holes

⭐ Best of All Three Worlds

  • Premium 20K hitch performance — A-Series articulating head, dual jaws, self-resetting handle, Sidewinder-compatible
  • Puck-system convenience — quick install/remove, no drilling
  • Slider functionality — turn clearance for tight maneuvers

Vehicle Fit

  • Vehicle: Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HD, Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty

A20 vs A16 — When to Step Up

The A20 and A16 share the same premium A-Series head design (articulating torsion, dual jaws, self-resetting handle, 3-position indicator, Sidewinder compatible). Meaningful A20 upgrades over A16:

  • 20,000 lb GTW vs A16's 16,000 lb — handles heavier trailers
  • 5,000 lb vertical load capacity vs A16's 4,000 lb — meaningful for larger 5th wheels with heavier pin weights
  • Same puck-system compatibility as A16 — uses the same puck legs (#16025, #16029, etc.) so upgrade paths are straightforward

Choose A20 if your trailer's GTW or pin weight is close to or above the A16's ratings. For a typical 32'–40' 5th wheel with a loaded pin weight over 3,500 lb, A20 provides meaningful headroom.

Need Even Higher Capacity?

The A20 is capped at 20,000 lb GTW. For larger 5th wheels and heavy toy haulers, CURT offers:

  • A25 (25K) — 25,000 lb GTW / 6,250 lb vertical load
  • A30 (30K) — Maximum A-Series capacity for luxury 5th wheels and heavy toy haulers
  • PowerRide (30K) — CURT's flagship — multi-directional head, strategic grip points, self-resetting handle

Each higher-capacity variant is available for the same puck-system trucks and universal industry-standard base rails.
