Conmet updates Simplex fifth wheel
Conmet
Consolidated Metco (ConMet) has re-engineered-and renamed-its Simplex line of fifth wheels, including a new handle design to improve driver ergonomics and require less force to operate; an updated jaw shape and return spring prevents jaw from closing while bobtailing; a new eccentric pin design allows for much finer increments of slack adjustment; and a retooled top plate that maximizes surface contact and extends product life.
The improvements apply to both the Simplex (formerly known as Simplex Lite) and Simplex II models. They will now be known as Simplex SE and Simplex II SE to better reflect the improvements made to the product in recent years, ConMet says.
