No, that is a standalone friction style sway control device. Most weight distribution hitches have integrated sway control.

So you have to have a Weight Distribution Hitch in order to attach the curt "sway a way too"?
Can it be used as a standalone product. That can hook right up to your trailer's tongue, without a WDH?

I have a WDH but didn't want to open that can of worms here ... but as it says in the image above, you don't need one to use the sway control kit :
"... or a sway tab mount 45820"

Cue the worry warts about drilling into the trailer tongue.

Most of them have integrated provisions to mount a sway control kit, i.e. the ball mount has a tab for the sway control device

FWIW my camper doesn't sway at highway speeds even with the sway control bar fully open. I have it mainly for better stability against sidewinds or when passing / being passed by semis

The kit I bought come with a weldable plate so I'm just going to add it to my existing mount.
