Jeff: Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com.Today, we're going to take a look at this Hopkins heavy duty seven way to six pole round coiled trailer connector adapter.Now, if your trailer has a six pole round connector on it and you go to connect to your vehicle and you find out there's only a seven way RV blade connector on the vehicle, that would be a problem. Now, this adapter right here will solve that problem. This is a nice heavy duty coiled cable adapter. It is compatible to plug into the seven way RV blade connector that's on your vehicle and it'll adapt it to work with the six way connector that's on your trailer.Now, the thing you need to make sure is that that center pin on the six pole round trailer side connector must be a 12 volt power connection for this adapter to work. Now, this is a nice heavy duty coiled cable.
You can see when it's stretched, it's about three foot long, provides the extra reach while ensuring that the wire will not drag due to the flex coil design. Has a nice weatherproof jacketing on it. Easy grip connector on this end. Does use tin-plated terminals for corrosion resistance.Other nice feature on the six pole end, you can see it has this nice attached dust cap here that when you're not plugged in or using it, you can just put it on over there and it'll protect the terminals from the elements. And it also uses this swing away metal clamp right here you can see, that'll keep the connection to the six pole end on your trailer nicely attached.
So if you go to attach it, you just take your plug off, plug it into the six way, rotate that metal clamp up and it'll hold the two connections together, keeps them from coming apart.And then when you're done, just go ahead and put your . when you're not using it, go ahead and put your cap back on and you can swing this out of the way up against the cord. Very nice connection.But that should do it for the review on this Hopkins heavy duty seven way to six pole round coil trailer connector adapter.

This heavy-duty, coiled cable adapter is compatible with a 7-way RV blade trailer socket on the vehicle and adapts it to work with a 6-way connector on the trailer. Center pin on trailer side connector must be for 12V power.If I had watched the video I would not have purchased this connector. It says 0-5 feet, but it's only 3 feet. Additionally the 6-pole round end is female, which will not connect to your trailer/TOAD six-pin female socket. I couldn't find an adapter so ended up having to buy a completely new system at the last minute.
The staff and products at etrailer are awesome
Product came on time and worked great. I’ve never ordered from Amazon preferring to order directly from suppliers.
The coiled trailer connector adapter I order was shipped the day after my order and I received this item quickly. Based on my smooth transaction with e-trailer, I would recommend this website to my friends. In fact this site was recommended to me by my son-in-law.

Just fine as I expected, thanks.
Male pins. Useless. Had to buy the right cable from [online] .Love etrailer. Only reason not going 5 star is the 7 way to 6 way cable. 6 way has male pins. Useless and I bought the male receiver from etrailer too.

I do have a solution for you. For a flat tow install you would need part #HM47053 which would have a female end for the 6 pin connector.

I bought a new truck last year which had an electrical plug that did not fit my horse trailer. The Hopkins adapter that I ordered from etrailer.com was received in a very timely manner. It also was a perfect fit I just plugged it in and was good to go. I used it the whole year with no problems. I would not hesitate to use etrailer.com again.
This is the strangest product I've run into. Besides being to short the six wire end has male pins. Try to go to any auto parts store trailer outlet even to e.trailer.com and find a connector that is mounted on a vehicle and it will have a male end on it. Who in there right mind would want to have a connector mounted on there tow vehicle with a pig-tail that comes out from the mail connector mounted on the tow vehicle. That's the only part I could find. So I went to an auto parts store and got parts and assembled my own cable that will work just fine. Besides it is longer and won't pull out of it's connections when making turns; the coil is to stiff for even a short distance.
Super heavy duty. Perfect fit. Very well made and price is good for this product. My truck already had the towing package so the 7 blade end fit without any adapters, as well as the 6 pole end that hooks up to the trailer. Very satisfied.
Excellent quality and heavy duty products. I could not locate these type of cords locally but found them at etrailer. The cords are doing the job just as I planned. Would recommend etrailer for your towing needs.
So glad to have this product, which fit my connector perfectly. Customer Service was very helpful in assisting me in purchasing the correct item.
Great deal.... Thanks! I looked all over for this type of adapter. Very hard to find. Thanks to you I am spared the task of making a hard wire change just to pull an old hay trailer for my Dad. Thanks again!!
Greg S. was very helpful, etrailer prices are great.
This is why I have been a repeat customer.
Well made quality product with smart pa ckaging.

The wiring adapter that I recommend for flat towing would be part # HM47054. It is a 7 blade to 6 pole adapter that also comes with the 6 pole connector to add to the front of the vehicle. We will send over return instructions via email to return this adapter.
