XA-A848
Slide Base and Bracket
SAF-Holland

This slide base and bracket variant incorporates a fifth wheel oriented design philosophy with an integrated bracket to improve stiffness and alignment between the sliding platform and vehicle frame. The product attribute indicates its compatibility with standard fifth wheel interfaces, ensuring consistent fitment with existing hitches and related components. While explicit dimensional data is not furnished in this entry, the engineering intent is to deliver robust load management, precise travel guidance, and durable engagement surfaces that resist galling and wear through extended service life. The VMRS code 059-001-045 situates it within the same diagnostic and maintenance framework used to service slide base and bracket assemblies, facilitating cross-repair with other similar components. In practice, the assembly supports reliable docking and un-docking cycles, mitigates installation variances, and reduces the risk of misalignment that can lead to premature wear or coupling failures. Fleet operators will value the straightforward compatibility, repeatable performance, and ease of maintenance offered by this integrated solution within the fifth wheel hitch subsystem. Category context highlights its alignment with the broader slide base family.
