Standard Drop Handle Configuration

A drop handle configuration is standard. This reduces handle damage and maintenance repairs due to improper coupling. The release handle requires a simple, straight pull effort and is available in right or left hand release. Our EZ grip release handle requires less pull effort to operate while improving safety.

High Kinpin-to-Lock Contact Area

A machined top plate-to-yoke fit-up area maximizes surface contact and extends service life. The locking system also provides high coupling protection, which protects against coupling at an improper height. The kingpin-to-lock contact area is also 7.2 sq. in. - up to 87% greater contact area, over competitive models, for longer kingpin and lock life.

Visible Lock Indicator

Visible lock indicator with infinite lock adjustment positions improves lock and kingpin durability.

One Step Forged Steel Rear Lock

The FW35 Series features a one step rear lock providing high coupling protection. It has a forged steel split lock style, and the rear lock is machined and heat treated. This provides greater lock and lock pin durability.
