Roadmaster 501 Stowmaster Tow Bar with 2" Coupler fits Baseplates | Hauls Up to 6,000 lbs | Large Hook-Up Radius | Powder-Coated Finish | Self-lubricating Bushings

StowMaster ... The world's first collapsible, self-aligning tow bar. When StowMaster was released, it was revolutionary. One person could unfold, extend and connect the StowMaster to a hitch ball or a pintle hook in just a few seconds.

So why isn't Stowmaster still at the top of the sales chart? Primarily because it is a car-mounted tow bar.It folds up and stores directly in front of the car's bumper. It can easily be unpinned and removed but many folks prefer to store their tow bar on the back of the RV.

But don't be fooled. If you want a tow bar that is easy to handle, lasts longer than other tow bars, and is quickest to hook up or disconnect, then you can't go wrong with the StowMaster.

• Made in the USA. The StowMaster is designed, engineered and manufactured at our plant in Vancouver, Washington. Virtually every process is done under the same roof. We make all of the parts and pieces that make the final product. When we say, 'we made it,' that's because it is truly made by American workers who are part of the Roadmaster family.
• Telescoping arms are lightweight and easy to maneuver. Simply couple to a hitch ball and drive your RV away. The arms will automatically extend, center and lock in place for towing.
• The large hook-up radius means you don’t waste time lining up your towed vehicle. StowMaster was nicknamed 'the marriage saver' as one person can easily connect it. No need for one person to drive the car while another guides you to the hitch ball.
• Self-lubricating bushings eliminate friction between the inner and outer arms for smooth, easy operation. Other tow bars have steel riding on steel causing wear and failure over time.
• Car-mounted. When you reach your destination, the Stowmaster conveniently folds up for storage directly in front your bumper. To remove Stowmaster from the vehicle, simply pull two small pins.
• Connects to a ball mount or pintle hook. The StowMaster connects directly to a hitch ball or pintle hook. These are time tested and proven methods of towing.
• Solid stainless steel inner arms for smooth, trouble-free operation and easy maintenance. Stainless steel looks better, lasts longer and prevents corrosion that binds — Roadmaster tow bars are the most rust-free in the industry.
• A lustrous, high-tech powder coat finish for maximum durability. This finish exceeds all 500-hour salt spray, high-impact and extreme weather standards. Electrically charged particles of pigment are sprayed onto the surface of the tow bar, then baked at more than 400 degrees. The paint fuses to the metal. The result is a uniform, thick and extremely durable finish — three times stronger than solvent-based paint.
• Time tested and proven. Exceptional engineering and testing have earned StowMaster's excellent reputation as a cost effective, easy to use, tow bar.

Roadmaster was the first tow bar manufacturer to use computerized testing — as well as real world physical testing — to ensure structural integrity, longevity, and the safety of your family. Roadmaster’s computerized testing method is called FEA, which stands for Finite Element Analysis.

Every FEA design is displayed as a full-scale, three-dimensional object, which engineers can rotate and study on the screen as they apply thousands of pounds of force across the load-bearing components. Stress in the aluminum or steel is pinpointed, and the design is manipulated to remove it. The result is a safe, trouble-free, long lasting product.
