In a couple places on our website, you may have seen that our Category 1 tractor hitches are built to the ASAE Standard S278.6. One might ask themselves, what exactly does that mean and how does it affect me? I don’t want to make you think too hard on a Monday morning, so here is a quick breakdown of the standard.

The ASAE part comes from SAE International which is a resource for the standards and expertise involved with the designing, building and maintaining of self-propelled vehicle operations on land, sea, air or space. In simpler terms, a tractor is a self-propelled land vehicle and our product is involved in the operation of this vehicle. This particular S278.6 standard is for “Three Point Hitch, Implement Quick-Attach Coupler, and Agricultural Tractors” which is where we come in. This standard sets requirements for the attachment of our three-point hitch to your tractor when quick-attaching couplers are involved. Certain dimensions are necessary to insure clearance and guarantee proper functioning of your tractor when the hitch is connected.

So what does this mean for you and why should you care? Manufacturing our products to these standards ensures that when you purchase one of our Category 1 Three Point Hitches, it will work seamlessly with your agricultural tractor. Here at Heavy Hitch we want nothing more than to make your life easier and more efficient; that is why we invented it after all.
