HLDFW33, OB ILS, 48 in, 7.12 in, XL00
SAF-Holland

This heavy-duty fifth wheel top plate is designed for high-load towing applications with a FW33 (Low Lube) design philosophy that emphasizes reduced maintenance without compromising articulation. The platform supports a robust, low-friction interface that improves cycle life and reduces pin and saddle wear during repeated connect/disconnect cycles typical of long-haul and distribution operations. Its 48-inch nominal width and 7.12-inch travel specifications, paired with XL00 mounting metrics, provide a broad, stable coupling footprint for fleets that demand consistent mating geometry across varied trailers. The Low Lube approach minimizes lubricant requirements while preserving smooth rotation, translating into lower maintenance costs and less downtime in remote operations. Compatibility with standard 2-inch king pins ensures widespread trailer compatibility, while the internal release characteristics support reliable engagement in rough road conditions. The unit is cataloged under the 059-001-135 VMRS code, which aligns with other fifth wheel top assemblies in the same family, and a cross-reference to FON SLCLWB725048 aids in cross-vehicle application mapping. For fleet managers, this platform delivers predictable articulation, improved load distribution, and easier service planning, making it a sensible option for long-haul fleets, regional haulers, and mixed-operator operations where durability and uptime matter most.
