GEN-Y Hitch Releases The GLYDER: A Lightweight Torsion-Flex Hitch

The GEN-Y Hitch Team Continues to Create Innovative Products with Huge Success

Nappanee, Indiana:  GEN-Y Hitch, a Northern Indiana hitch company, has been revolutionizing the towing industry since 2012 with its Torsion-Flex technology and adjustable drop hitches. The GEN-Y team is thrilled to introduce their newest addition to the Torsion-Flex product line, the GLYDER. The GLYDER includes many benefits such as being lightweight, versatile, and economically-priced.

Until now, GEN-Y Hitch has only offered heavy-duty hitches.The GLYDER is, in fact, geared toward the light-duty towing market with a towing capacity of seven thousand pounds. The GLYDER is designed to be compatible with many attachments such as campers, boats, and small trailers. In addition to being versatile, the GLYDER has been built to last and is manufactured entirely in the USA. The benefits of the Torsion-Flex component within the GLYDER include: up to a 90% smoother ride, a reduction in tire wear on the truck and trailer, and an increase in fuel mileage. GEN-Y Hitch offers several options for the GLYDER such as a weight distribution attachment, a drop or rise attachment, and several ball sizes. 

 

About GEN-Y Hitch:  In 2012, Carl Borkholder, the founder of GEN-Y Hitch, began manufacturing adjustable hitches out of his home. He owned a tree-trimming company at the time and was constantly forced to switch hitches to be able to connect to different trailers. His ideas have since made GEN-Y Hitch what it is today and continue to transform the towing market. In just seven years, the company has grown from its humble beginnings in a garage into a multi-million dollar company serving customers throughout the USA, Canada, and Australia.
