Overview

The Pintle Hook Coupler is a genuine Electro Kinetic Technologies hitch, part number 0244-302, built for the Pony Express line of electric tuggers. It gives your tugger a rugged tow point for carts and trailers fitted with a lunette or drawbar eye. The pintle jaw opens and latches around the ring, so a single operator can hook and drop loads without help.

This coupler is machined from drop-forged steel and protected with a black powder coat finish, so it stands up to daily plant and warehouse duty. It weighs about 9 lbs and mounts to the Pony Express adaptable front plate that is shared across the tugger family. That means you can swap it for a ball, ring, or release-pin hitch as your carts change.

The jaw captures any drawbar eye with a 2 in to 3 in inside diameter and a ring thickness of 1-1/4 in to 1-5/8 in. Pintle hitches suit uneven floors and turning cart trains because the ring can pivot and articulate inside the jaw. That keeps the connection secure through tight aisles and ramp transitions.

Heavy Duty Mobility is an authorized EKT dealer, so this is the factory part, not an aftermarket copy. Always confirm the eye size on your cart before ordering and inspect the latch before each shift. If you are unsure which hitch matches your fleet, call us and we will help you spec it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a genuine EKT part?

Yes. This is the factory Electro Kinetic Technologies pintle hook coupler, part number 0244-302, supplied through Heavy Duty Mobility as an authorized dealer. It is not an aftermarket copy.

Which Pony Express tuggers does it fit?

It mounts to the Pony Express adaptable front plate, which is shared across the electric tugger family including the 1061, 1061-HD, 1065, 1065-HD, and 1065-XHD. Confirm your model has the standard front plate before ordering.

What size drawbar eye will it accept?

The pintle jaw captures a lunette or drawbar eye with a 2 in to 3 in inside diameter and a ring thickness of 1-1/4 in to 1-5/8 in. Measure your cart eye before ordering to be sure it falls in this range.

Why choose a pintle hook over a ball or ring hitch?

A pintle jaw lets the towed ring pivot and articulate, which helps on uneven floors, ramps, and tight cart-train turns. Ball and release-pin hitches are also available for the same front plate if your carts use those fittings.

Can I swap this hitch myself?

The coupler bolts to the tugger front plate, so it can be changed with basic hand tools. Follow the EKT hitch instructions, use the correct hardware, and inspect the latch before each shift.
