Description
Tow Hitch Ball (M8 and M10 versions)
𧰠A practical and robust accessory for your mini-tractor or garden vehicle!
I designed this tow hitch ball to be mounted on a mini-tractor or small garden vehicle.
The design includes a through-hole into which a 9 cm long threaded rod can be screwed, available in two versions: M8 and M10, both with a 1.25 mm pitch.
The threaded rod serves a dual function:
- Reinforce the ball structure;
- Allow for solid anchoring to the vehicle.

HELP ME WITH A BOOST!!! IT COSTS YOU NOTHING, BUT IT HELPS ME BRING BETTER AND MORE USEFUL PROJECTS...
â ď¸ Warning: it is not recommended to use this ball for towing excessively heavy loads.
In my case, I successfully tested moving a boat trailer of about 5 meters, without any problems.
I recommend printing the part in resistant materials (the one I used is PETG), which proved solid and reliable.
Alternatively, materials like ASA or Reinforced Nylon ensure greater mechanical resistance.
