SAF-Holland

The 24-inch slider, 7.88 geometry with AA finish is engineered for fleets demanding extended travel and durable surface protection. This hold configuration offers reliable engagement dynamics across FW17-compatible installations, with an emphasis on smooth coupling and repeatable uncoupling forces even under heavy payloads. The 24-inch slider augments versatility when dealing with varied tractor-trailer spacings, enabling more forgiving alignment during routine procedures and in cold-weather conditions where stiffness can impact performance. The left-hand orientation supports common operator setups, while the integrated locking mechanism contributes to stable, secure engagement throughout dynamic road conditions. VMRS 059-001-135 marks this as a standard-fit component within the FW17 ecosystem, ensuring predictable maintenance steps and compatibility with a broad range of service parts. Cross references to JOS 37USL XM6X expand availability for replacement stock. Category-wise, it remains a sturdy option in the 42518 family for long-haul and regional operations requiring dependable slider-driven holds.
