Volvo Trucks kondigt JOST International aan als nieuwe standaardleverancier van vijfde wielen

Volvo Trucks gaat voortaan koppelschotels van JOST International standaard monteren op Volvo VN- en VHD-trekkers die worden geproduceerd in de fabriek in Dublin (Virginia). Deze fabriek assembleert alle Volvo-trucks die in Noord-Amerika worden verkocht.
 

“Introduction of this new standard fifth wheel represents our ongoing focus on safety, driver productivity and customer value,” said Frank Bio, Volvo Trucks product manager – trucks. “We appreciate JOST’s broad product range and availability of information to help specify a fifth wheel based on vehicle application.”

With only four moving parts, JOST fifth wheels are one of the simplest and safest fifth wheel coupling devices available. JOST’s design employs a spring-loaded steel locking bar that automatically secures the kingpin once it slides into position. Equal support on each side of the coupling helps distribute the trailer load evenly, resulting in reduced wear. The JOST design also helps facilitate minor rebuilds without removing the fifth wheel. Drivers benefit from the fifth wheel’s easy operation, requiring just 60 pounds of pulling force to position or disconnect.

Volvo Trucks biedt de JOST-cabinegestuurde ontluchter nog steeds aan als optie voor extra comfort voor de chauffeur.
