FW35R024XL00
Fifth Wheel Assembly - Heavy-Duty Sliding
SAF-Holland

Designed for demanding tractor-trailer configurations, this heavy-duty sliding coupling system provides a secure, adjustable connection between the tractor and trailer. It is engineered to handle substantial real-world stresses with a maximum load capacity of 150,000 lbs and a vertical load rating of 55,000 lbs, ensuring reliable performance in heavy-haul and severe-service fleets. The footprint measures 39.50 inches wide with a overall length of 63 inches, and a travel range of 24 inches to fine-tune trailer position for optimal coupling geometry across varied wheelbases and payloads. Mounting height is specified at 10.10 inches, and the king pin diameter is 2 inches, aligning with standard 2-inch king pins used in most heavy-truck applications. The construction features an Outboard SDS mounting arrangement and a left-hand release, enabling straightforward, ergonomic operation from the driver’s side in typical yard and highway scenarios. With FW35 as the product attribute, this unit is designed for Standard, Moderate, and Severe service conditions, offering versatility across multiple trailer configurations. VMRS code 059-001-135 anchors the part within the standard diagnostic framework, while cross-reference FON SL7AWB975024 supports interchange and replacement planning. Category context (42518) places this component in sophisticated fifth-wheel assemblies for demanding towing needs. In practical use, operators gain enhanced coupling precision, extended component life through adjustable engagement, and the flexibility to accommodate trailers with varying lengths and load profiles, all while maintaining robust safety margins during maneuvers.
