Retention & Attachment
Custom-fitted for a secure, consistent connection.
The retention system is what keeps the slick plate exactly where it needs to be, coupling after coupling. Because every plate is custom-fitted to a specific fifth wheel, the attachment stays tight and predictable across the full duty cycle.
- Custom-fitted per fifth wheel make and model
- Designed to stay secure under tanker-duty loads
- No field adjustment needed after installation
Why It Matters
A loose connection undoes everything else.
Low friction only helps if the plate stays exactly in position. The retention system is engineered so drivers get the same secure, predictable coupling every time — supporting both the fuel-saving and safety goals of the system.
- More control and confidence for drivers
- Helps extend steer tire life through consistent handling
- Reduces wear that leads to unplanned maintenance
