PLYMOUTH, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Horizon Global Corporation (NYSE: HZN), one of the world’s leading manufacturers of branded towing and trailering equipment, announced today the launch of its all-in-one towing solution, the REESE^® Dual Cam™ II (part numbers: 66091, 66092, 66093). The newly redesigned, integrated weight distribution and sway control system is now available for purchase at REESE dealers nationwide, www.reeseprod.com, and automotive aftermarket e-commerce sites.

The Dual Cam II uses active sway control to help ensure some of the highest levels of towing safety. The stronger the sway force, the more the Dual Cam system works to stop it. Its unique design works continuously to help keep the trailer in a straight line behind the tow vehicle. As a result, drivers and their passengers alike experience safer towing, a more comfortable ride, and reduced noise.

Engineered for the three most popular weight ratings (6,000 lbs., 8,000 lbs., and 12,000 lbs. in gross trailer weight [GTW]), the Dual Cam II system is now easier than ever to install with a simple, no-drill installation. The redesigned system also features broader application coverage to work with today’s most popular trailer frames.

“The Dual Cam II builds off the remarkable success and effectiveness of the original Dual Cam,” said Malorie Dyda, Product Manager of Heavy-Duty Products at Horizon Global. “REESE has delivered the ultimate all-in-one weight distribution and sway control system, pro-actively helping to prevent trailer sway before it happens, thus providing a safer and more enjoyable towing experience. All the while, we simplified the installation process for installers and do-it-yourselfers with a ‘no drill, no chains’ set-up. It’s the perfect match for today’s lighter and taller trailer frames.”

The Dual Cam II―which does not interfere with parking or backing up a trailer―features the following:

• An integrated weight distribution and sway control system for an all-in-one towing solution*
• Fully automatic, active sway control system that helps force the trailer to stay straight behind the tow vehicle without resisting normal turning
• An easy, quick, no-drill installation – the brackets just bolt over trailer frame
• A pre-installed 2-5/16-inch hitch ball, torqued to proper specifications
• Trunnion-style spring bars for greater strength and heightened ground clearance
• Bolt-on brackets easily adjust to fit 4-inch to 7-inch trailer frames and work with both top- and bottom-mounted A-frame trailer couplers
• Zinc plating for superior rust and corrosion resistance
• A limited lifetime warranty

*Shank not included. Use of appropriately rated shank required.
