Sway control devices are tools used in towing setups to enhance stability and reduce the side-to-side movement, or sway, of a trailer. These devices help maintain a straight path while driving, making it safer for both the towing vehicle and the trailer. They are particularly useful when towing larger trailers, such as campers or boats, which can be more prone to swaying due to wind or uneven road surfaces. Common types of sway control devices include weight distribution hitches and friction sway control systems. Weight distribution hitches help distribute the weight of the trailer more evenly across the towing vehicle, while friction sway control systems use friction to limit the movement of the trailer. Together, these devices contribute to a smoother and safer towing experience.
