Release Handle
SAF-Holland

The release handle is a ergonomically designed control lever used to engage or disengage a latching mechanism within the coupling system. Its precise dimensions—the length of 17.48 inches and a diameter of 0.38 inches—support comfortable operation and reliable lock‑release action across operators and conditions. This part belongs to the Component family and is integral to SAF-Holland fifth-wheel or related release systems, with VMRS code 059-001-019 that situates it within the release/control hardware category. Category context places it in the SAF-Holland handling and release hardware ecosystem, where consistent leverage and dependable return action are essential for safe operation. Benefits include improved operator control, reduced fatigue during coupling/uncoupling cycles, and predictable release forces that contribute to safer, more efficient fleet operations in day‑to‑day trailer handling and highway applications.
