Description
When your three-point hitch lift arms start getting sloppy or you’re dealing with worn-out ball sockets that don’t hold implements securely anymore, it’s time for some attention. This heavy-duty combination ball socket is designed to handle the punishment of serious farm work while giving you the tight fit and smooth operation you need for efficient implement changes and secure attachment.
What You’re Getting
- Extra heavy construction with 7/16 inch thick race that won’t flex under load like lighter-duty versions
- Dual pin compatibility – works with both 7/8 inch and 1-1/8 inch pins so you’re covered for Category 1 and 2 applications
- Black oxide finish resists corrosion and stands up to weather and field conditions
- Generous bore dimensions provide proper bearing surface for long service life
- Weld-on design for permanent installation that won’t work loose
Built for Real Farm Work
This socket fits Category 1 and Category 2 three-point hitch systems, making it suitable for everything from compact utility tractors up to larger row-crop machines. Whether you’re running a small farm with a 30-horsepower tractor or operating bigger equipment for row crops and hay operations, this socket handles the loads and stress that come with real agricultural work.
Made to Last
The extra-heavy construction isn’t just marketing talk – that 7/16 inch thick race means this socket can handle heavy implements without flexing or cracking. The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance while the precision-machined surfaces ensure smooth ball movement and proper fit. This is the kind of part that goes on once and keeps working for years.
Installation Notes
This is a weld-on socket, so you’ll need basic welding equipment and skills to install it properly. Clean up the old socket area thoroughly before welding, and make sure you get good penetration for a strong joint. The combination design means you can use either size pin depending on your implement needs – handy when you’ve got a mix of Category 1 and 2 equipment.
