Heavy Duty Series

HOLLAND FW0070

Various operating conditions, applications and loads may require a fifth wheel with greater capacities than standard fifth wheels. HOLLAND FW70 Extra Capacity fifth wheels can help fit this demanding requirement.

Extra capacity fifth wheels are used in a variety of trailer applications, such as:

MORE THAN TRI-AXLE TRAILER TYPES: Vans, Flats, Stretch, Pole models, B-Train Vans and Flats

MORE THAN TANDEM AXLE TRAILER TYPES: Dry Bulk and Liquid Tank, Dumps (End, Frameless and Bottom Dump Lowboys), B-Trains (Tank and Bottom Dump Models), and Converter Dolly - Multi Axles

Features and Benefits

Type "A" Locking Mechanism

Features Type "A" locks with a swinging lock, front lock, plunger, slack adjustment bolt, and adjusting wedge.

Kompensator

Kompensator fifth wheel mounting bases are designed for use with torsionally rigid trailers such as tankers, drybulk, bottom dumps, grain and B-trains

When torsionally rigid trailers encounter uneven terrain, tight turns or curbs, they do not flex to relieve the twisting force experienced between tractor and trailer. This leads to frame cracks, leaky tanks and premature drive tire wear.

Holland Kompensator provides the torsional stress relief that rigid trailers require. The unique cradle design provides side-to-side compensation and allows more flexibility between tractor and trailer by reducing torque and twist transfer through the fifth wheel.

Features and Benefits

Torsional Stress Relief

Fifth wheel top plate slides side-to-side in the Kompensator cradle, relieving the high torsional (twisting) forces from rough terrain.

Optional Lockout

Both stationary and sliding Kompensators can be equipped with an optional lockout device which can be engaged when side-to-side compensation is not desired.

Stationary Kompensators

Holland Kompensator is available in multiple stationary mounting styles, including:
- Over-the-frame mount base with full mounting plate
- Over-the-frame base with angle mount base
- Over-the-frame base for mounting angles
- Outboard angle mount base with mounting plate

Sliding Kompensators

Holland Kompensator is available for sliding mounts with Holland’s Air Release technology or with a manual slide release base.

Oscillating

Oscillating fifth wheels are available in both fully-oscillating and semi-oscillating models.

Oscillating fifth wheels are available in both fully-oscillating and semi-oscillating models. The fully-oscillating fifth wheel provides both front-to-rear and side-to-side oscillation (articulation) between the tractor and semi-trailer. The semi-oscillating version provides only front-to-rear oscillation.

Features and Benefits

Fully Oscillating

A fifth wheel designed to provide both front-to-rear and side-to-side oscillation between the tractor and semi-trailer; for vehicles that operate on rough and uneven terrain (mining, logging, etc.). The oscillation is provided by the use of an undercarriage employing both transverse and longitudinal shafts. The side-to-side oscillation pivot point is located below the fifth wheel bearing surface.

For applications where minimizing torque and twist transfer through the fifth wheel is beneficial. Used where center of gravity is equal to or below fifth wheel height.

Semi-Oscillating

The standard over-the-road fifth wheel is the semi-oscillating type which oscillates (articulates) about an axis perpendicular to the vehicle centerline to accommodate for normal road variations ( inclines, bumps, etc.).

Sliding

Provides the capability of transfering weight between tractor axles, accomodating trailers with different kingpin settings, and vary vehicle combination lengths.

The selection of a sliding fifth wheel provides the capability to transfer weight between tractor axles, accomodate trailers with different kingpin settings, and vary vehicle combination lengths.

A sliding fifth wheel also provides the following additional benefits:

1) Resale: a sliding fifth wheel offers maximum equipment flexibility and is more likely to fit the application of a prospective purchaser.

2) Improved Maneuverability: a sliding fifth wheel positioned forward provides additional maneuverabliity in tight locations and sliding the fifth wheel rearward accommodates trailers with short landing gear clearance.

3) Ride Comfort: driver comfort is increased as the fifth wheel is located closer to the centerline of the bogie or rear axle. When the axles are not overloaded, the driver has the ability to extend the unit for maximum comfort.

Features and Benefits

Air Release Slide Bracket

Options include this air release slide bracket. It features a stainless steel air cylinder, and an easy to reach outside plunger adjustment.

Manual Release Sliding Bracket

The second bracket option is the manual release slide bracket seen here.

Over-The-Frame Mount Slide Plate

The first option for the slide plate is this over-the-frame precision roll-formed plate. It features a forged steel rack with 1.5" increments of adjustment.

Outboard Angle Mount Slide Plate

The other slide plate option is this outboard angle mount precision roll-formed plate. It features a forged steel rack with 1.5" increments of adjustment as well.

Stationary

Holland stationary fifth wheel mounts are designed for applications where the axle loading, kingpin setting and vehicle combination length all remain constant throughout the fleet.

Stationary fifth wheel mounts are generally lighter weight and lower cost than sliding mounts, however, they do no offer the application flexibility of a sliding mount.

Features and Benefits

Bolt-On Foot Mount

Special base designed for bolt-on applications. Foot mounts are intended for installation on corrugated or flat mounting plates. Foot mounts include integral tilt stops.

Intregrated Plate Mount

Lightweight base designed for bolt-on outboard angle mounting applications.

Weld-On Bracket for Angle Mounting

Designed for welding to angles at installation. Cast construction for maximum performance and durability. Brackets include integral tilt stops.

Bracket with Mounting Angle

Cast construction for maximum performance and durability. Brackets include integral tilt stops. Standard 4”x 4”x .38”x 36” long, however, various heights and frame widths are available.

No Tilt

Holland No-Tilt is designed to be convertible from a standard articulating fifth wheel to a rigid “no-tilt” fifth wheel when required. In applications requiring a “no-tilt” fifth wheel, the oscillation (articulation) is provided by other means (eg. An articulating upper coupler). No-Tilt is available on both stationary and sliding mounting brackets.

Features and Benefits

Locking Shaft

Using an easy-to-use locking shaft the No-Tilt is converted from an articulating fifth wheel to a rigid “no-tilt” fifth wheel.
