Can't beat etrailer
Great Product. Just remember to order the boot for the back of it separate.
Awesome product selections and quick response towards shipping. Made me feel like I was actually getting somewhere. If you have a trailer, camper, or any type of tow behind application get HOOKED UP with this company. Very satisfied
I would highly recommend this. It is heavy duty and quality built. A great value for the money
Excellent product! - have, over only a few years, steadily worked my way through progressively more durable trailer cable sockets. The last one was the Hopkins heavy-duty, or something to that effect. The plastic casing on it broke within three months. I'm really looking forward to putting these to the test - I'm a farrier - I pull a trailer every day; the traffic in this area means that I must rely on excellent contact between vehicle/trailer for turn / brake signals and functioning trailer brakes. Nothing less. These sockets are heavy, all-metal (zinc-coated - road salt shouldn't be a problem), with few / no seams. When the trailer end is plugged into the truck receiver - it's a nice tight fit, with no movement: it's locked in. There are only two drawbacks for the homeowner who is looking for the do-it-yourself package: if you are looking for a metal bracket that bolts underneath the truck bumper and holds this part - there isn't any. And no bolts, either. I don't know if they sell them for these - I didn't check. I simply manufactured my own. So far, I'm delighted with the product.
I ordered the 7 pole socket (PK11720) and the rubber boot for it. (PK11761) Also a trailer end plug (PK11700) to fit into the socket. The items arrived on the exact estimated arrival date that I was given on the day of ordering.
Wiring the plug and the socket was very easy. Each terminal has a small screw that holds the end of the wire in place. It is a simple matter of threading the screw out, putting the wire in the hole, and then tightening the screw onto the wire.
The boot fits snugly onto the back of the socket.
I used these parts to repair the power cable assembly to a truck mounted forklift. The parts are exactly what was needed to replace what had been damaged. The quality is good and the prices are excellent. I will use etrailer.com in the future when I need related items. I am very pleased.
This is much better than the OEM on my New Holland Tractor asit is made of metal. It also cost less than the all plastic replacement from the dealership. etrailer was fast with delivery. Thank you.

Performed as expected to date.
Trailer plug works great.
Bought to replace a 12 year old Pollak identical connector that I removed and could not re-use due to wire connections on the back being corroded (road salt area). The 12 year old connector worked fine except the flip up cover was a bit stiff. The 12 year old connector was also made in USA. The new connector I just received is made in China. From the price, I had hoped it was still made in USA. It seems that most of the time I am disappointed with the newer imported China versions of products once manufactured in USA. So my expectations for this product to have a long life are not very high.
Well I have not installed it yet, but it is marked for each trailer wire by color, matching much earlier models. Did not come with mounting screws and nuts, but not a big deal.
I could not find this style or make trailer plug in my local auto parts store. I got tired of trying to find it so I ordered it on line. etrailer was convenient and less expensive than any other website.
The metal body and good quality pins and connections make this one the only one for a professional job.
Remember if you use dielectric grease and the rubber boot you'll never have corrosion in your connections . Dissimilar metals and weather are a bad combination.
For me, and probably you, etrailer.com is a great place to shop/buy quality products. They give great follow up after ordering and fast shipping @ a fair price. I believe their service & pricing is unbeatable. I do shop for bargains & etrailer is @ the top of my list.
Excellent product! I bought this to replace the old, brittle, and broken plastic trailer connector on my 1973 aluminum camper. The plastic one stood out against the aluminum which I didn't like. So, I'm excited how this will blend in and look more natural. Besides aesthetics, this very sturdy and ruggedly built. It will clearly outlast the camper, no doubt. Will definitely buy again if I find myself with a different camper in the future.
Etrailer web site was easy to work with and outstanding communication with your orders. Package was also delivered earlier than expected. I would rank etrailer as A+
Great construction of the product, durable enough to withstand harsh working conditions and "operators" I am using that term lightly due to the mishaps that occur on a regular basis at my location.
I got exactly what I expected. Great customer service & follow through.

No issues, all the hardware was correct and the item is still working.
This connector is really nice and with the screw tightening wire connections that are on it, it will make the wiring a lot easier to do.
