Fifth Wheel Assembly, Sliding
SAF-Holland

This sliding fifth wheel assembly delivers essential versatility for tractors that operate across varying trailer heights and clearance requirements. The sliding mounting arrangement allows rapid adjustment of the king pin-to-trailer interface, enabling optimized coupling height and improved control in tight loading docks or uneven terrain. Built on a FW33 (Low Lube) platform, it emphasizes reduced maintenance needs and consistent performance across cycles, with smoother engagement and less resistance during articulation. The design supports standard/moderate application profiles and uses a left-hand release lever location for straightforward operation in confined cab spaces. VMRS alignment is 059-001-135, ensuring compatibility with other sliding top-plate components in the same lineage, while cross-references to FON SLCLWB825012 provide integration references for fleet planning and parts stocking. This assembly is well-suited to fleets that frequently interchange trailers or operate at varied loading dock elevations, delivering reliable hitch alignment, improved maneuverability, and long-term durability in day-to-day highway and yard operations.
