Fifth Wheel Release Handle
The Fifth Wheel Release Handle is an essential component for tractor trailers, meticulously engineered with close tolerances to ensure efficient and reliable operation. This pull release mechanism is the result of advanced manufacturing processes, including primary techniques like CNC wire forming for shaping the handle and precision stamping of a 9.5MM thick plate using a 150 Ton Straight Side Press. The integration of these processes guarantees a high-quality, consistent product essential for the demanding environments of heavy-duty trucking.
In the construction of this critical part, robust low carbon steel is utilized, including 9.5MM and 6.35MM thick hot rolled picked and oiled for added strength and corrosion resistance, along with 16MM 1008 bright basic wire for its forming capabilities. The wire handle is bead welded to the stamped plate using a Lincoln Electric Robotic Weld Station, ensuring a durable and strong bond. Finally, the assembly is powder coated black, providing not only an aesthetically pleasing finish but also protection against wear and environmental elements.
The Fifth Wheel Release Handle stands as a testament to precision engineering and quality craftsmanship in the trucking industry. With its robust construction, durable materials, and advanced manufacturing techniques, it is designed to deliver reliability and longevity, fulfilling the rigorous needs of tractor trailers on the road.
