Slide Base and Bracket
SAF-Holland

The slide base and bracket assembly combines a solid base with a purpose-built bracket to support the slider mechanism within the fifth wheel system. This integrated arrangement improves rigidity, reduces incidence of misalignment, and supports smoother movement of the slider during adjustment operations. By maintaining precise geometry, it helps ensure consistent hook-up behavior across a variety of trailer configurations and weight distributions. VMRS categorization places it within the slide base family, with the fifth wheel context guiding compatibility expectations across OEM platforms. Cross-compatibility with various mounting frames and hardware enables straightforward replacement in mixed fleets, while respecting torque specifications and maintenance schedules to sustain reliability in daily operations. This configuration is well-suited for fleets that require flexible hitch positioning without compromising structural integrity.
