Hitches can take many forms. They can be in the form of a tow pin and jaw together with a trailer loop. This particular design is usually utilized for agricultural applications with big vehicles where slack in the pivot pin allows articulation and swiveling. It could also take the form of a tow-ball so as to allow the same movements of a trailer. The towing pintle is one more category of hitches which is used on military vehicles worldwide.

The ball-mount is the tool which the ball attaches to in North America. There are receiver types of hitches on the market that make use of ball-mounts which are removable. Another design is the fixed drawbar type of hitches. These kinds have incorporated ball-mounts. It is essential for the ball-mount to match the SAE hitch class.

Several pickup trucks have outfitted on the back bumper 1 to 3 mounting holes located in the center part. The implementation of these was so as to help accommodate tow-balls.
