Fifth Wheel Assembly - Complete - ILS, 48 Inch, Sliding
SAF-Holland

A complete 48 inch sliding unit extends the reach of the sliding interface to accommodate longer vehicle configurations and higher torque transmission requirements. The ILS architecture maintains controlled, repeatable movement with a secure locking function to ensure trailer attachment integrity during operation. The 48 inch slider widens the contact band with the kingpin, contributing to enhanced stability during braking and hard acceleration on heavy loads. VMRS code 059-001-135 places this component within the essential family of sliding fifth wheel assemblies used by modern fleets, while the category context 42518 confirms its placement in the broader sliding third-rail ecosystem. While cross references are not listed, technicians can rely on standard mounting patterns and replacement intervals common to this category. For operators, the extended width translates to greater trailer alignment tolerance, reduced coupling effort, and improved performance in long haul or weather-exposed routes where trailer positioning consistently challenges traditional hitch systems.
