Weld-On Receiver Tube

The GEN-Y Weld-On Receiver Tube is a raw steel receiver tube with a reinforced 3/4 inch steel collar, designed to be welded onto a custom frame, trailer, or fabricated mount to build your own receiver hitch. It's a fabrication component rather than a finished hitch, intended for installers and fabricators who need a receiver opening on a custom application rather than a factory-installed vehicle receiver.

The Weld-On Receiver Tube is available in 2 inch, 2.5 inch, and 3 inch receiver sizes. The 2 inch and 2.5 inch sizes come in 5.5 inch or 12 inch lengths, while the 3 inch size is currently offered only in the 12 inch length. Choose the length based on how much of the tube needs to be embedded in or welded to your fabrication.

No. The Weld-On Receiver Tube ships as raw, unfinished steel, ready for welding rather than bolting on. It's meant to be welded directly onto a frame, trailer tongue, or other fabricated mount by someone with welding equipment and experience, not installed as a plug-and-play accessory the way a factory-fit hitch would be.

Use a 3/4 inch pin where applicable, particularly with the 3 inch receiver size, to take full advantage of the reinforced 3/4 inch steel collar. Confirm the correct pin size for your specific fabricated application, since the tube itself doesn't dictate pin size the way a complete hitch assembly does.

The base 2 inch, 5.5 inch length Weld-On Receiver Tube (part number GH-002) weighs 9 pounds. Weight increases with larger receiver sizes and longer tube lengths, so check the specific size and length you're ordering for its exact shipping weight before planning a fabrication project around it.

Yes. The Weld-On Receiver Tube is manufactured in the United States from steel. As a raw fabrication component rather than a finished, tested hitch, the product page does not list a specific warranty term; check GEN-Y's general returns and warranty page or contact GEN-Y directly for current coverage details on this item.
