Safe Towing With the e2™ Round Bar Spring Bar Release Clip

The e2™ Round Bar Spring Bar Release Clip makes your weight distribution hitch safer and more reliable by ensuring the spring bars stay firmly locked in the head assembly. It prevents bars from working loose or falling out, which helps maintain proper weight distribution and sway control.

A quick, inexpensive replacement eliminates a common point of failure, giving you greater confidence on every trip. Check and replace as needed during regular maintenance for smoother, worry-free towing.

What the e2™ Round Bar Spring Bar Release Clip Can Do For You

It restores positive locking of your round spring bars into the hitch head. When the original spring weakens or the pin/rivets wear, bars can feel loose or even fall out unnoticed—creating a serious safety risk. A fresh clip brings back that confident “click” and keeps everything secure mile after mile.

Once you have spares on hand, it becomes a permanent, low-effort part of your towing routine. Tiny, durable, and cheap, it eliminates the frustration of loose bars, potential damage, or roadside repairs. No more worrying about bars dropping on long trips.

An Essential Part of Your Towing Setup

For anyone towing with a Fastway e2™ round bar system, the Round Bar Spring Bar Release Clip is a must-have maintenance item. It’s the simple mechanism that keeps your spring bars locked in place, ensuring consistent weight distribution and sway control. Built tough for repeated use, it’s inexpensive insurance against worn parts that can cause bars to come loose.

Clean, simple, and always effective—once you replace a tired clip, you’ll wonder why you didn’t keep spares sooner.

Easy To Install

The e2™ Round Bar Spring Bar Release Clip is designed for quick, hassle-free replacement. Whether you’re fixing worn-out originals or adding spares to your kit, it’s ready straight out of the box. No complicated tools or adjustments are required. Pry out the lower rivet on the old clip (it often lacks a proper screw head), slide the assembly free, then install the new clip in reverse. The whole job takes just a couple of minutes.

It works immediately with your existing Fastway e2™ or Equal-i-zer round bar system. Once installed, the spring bar should click firmly into the hitch head and stay locked. Whether you’re an experienced tower or new to weight distribution hitches, this clip restores secure, reliable performance with zero downtime.

Compact & Easy To Store

This is one of the smallest and most useful spares you can carry. The entire release clip assembly is tiny and lightweight, so multiple spares take up almost no room. Toss a couple in your hitch box, toolbox, glove compartment, or trailer storage compartment—they won’t rattle or clutter your gear.

No bulky extras to haul around. Keep them with your other e2 parts and you’ll have peace of mind knowing you can quickly fix a loose or missing clip on the road before it becomes a bigger problem. It stays out of the way until needed, then delivers an instant return to safe, secure towing.
