Fifth Wheel Assembly - Hold Flat Plate, FW35, 8.625 inch, Left Hand
SAF-Holland

Holding flat-plate configuration on the FW35 framework with an 8.625-inch height, this left-hand assembly delivers a rugged, high-load interface suitable for standard to severe service. The 40-inch width, 35-inch length, and 2-inch king pin diameter ensure compatibility with conventional trailers across FW35 builds, while the left-hand release and stationary integrated plate mount support straightforward coupling and alignment. The 150,000-pound maximum load and 55,000-pound vertical rating enable safe weight transfer under demanding highway conditions and mountain grades. VMRS 059-001-135 standardizes maintenance documentation for fifth-wheel couplers, and category context 42518 situates this part within the FW35 faceplate/flat-plate family. Cross-references include JOS 37USA DB9X and FON AA7PML9250, offering interchangeability pathways for fleets maintaining diverse supplier catalogs. For service and safety, technicians should validate release status, confirm mounting hardware torque, and perform regular engagement checks to minimize coupling issues and ensure reliable trailer articulation in daily operations.
