The 16K SuperGlide on Traditional Series rails — your lower-cost way into fully automatic sliding for lighter fifth wheels.
Important Notice
How much slide a truck needs depends on its bed length. Confirm the 16K SuperGlide fits your exact truck and bed with our fitment finder (or your dealer) before you buy, and order the matching Capture Plate from the Quick Connect fit chart.
Requires a Quick Connect Capture Plate
This hitch requires a capture plate matched to your trailer's king pin box, sold separately. You must select the correct capture plate for your specific trailer brand.
Find Your Capture Plate
Short bed trucks gave you back garage space and a smaller turning radius, but they cost you something behind the cab: room to turn a fifth wheel. Crank the wheel hard and the trailer's nose swings right toward your rear window. The SuperGlide fixes that without asking anything of you. It's a fully automatic sliding fifth wheel hitch, and it works while you drive.
Here's what makes it different. As you turn or back up, a patented cam action moves the trailer away from the cab along the hitch, then slides it back to the towing position over your axle the moment you straighten out. That gives you a full 90 degrees of turning. No levers to throw, no switches, no climbing in and out of the truck before and after every turn the way a manual slider demands. You just get in and drive.
Every SuperGlide is built around PullRite's patented, fully automatic locking jaw — the only self-locking handle on the market, with no secondary lock to reach over the bedside and engage by hand. The hitch head moves side-to-side and front-to-back, so you ride smoother over rough roads and can couple and uncouple on uneven ground without jacking or shimming to get level. When it's time to clear the bed, the head pulls out on a couple of pins and clips. No tools, and a lot less weight to wrestle. A Capture Plate, sold separately, mounts to your trailer's skid plate and is required to drive the slide.
It's also SAE J2638 tested (the recognized fifth wheel strength standard) and accurately weight rated, so the number on the label is the number you can trust. Every one is made in the USA from American steel. Want to pull a gooseneck trailer too? The SuperGlide works with PullRite's #4424 Horse Trailer Adapter to convert a gooseneck coupler to a fifth wheel.
The 16K is the entry capacity of the SuperGlide family, built for lighter fifth wheels — trailers up to 16,000 lbs with 4,000 lbs of pin weight. If your rig sits in that range, you get the same automatic slide as the bigger SuperGlides without paying for capacity you won't use.
This is the Traditional Series version, and that's where the choice lives. It mounts to PullRite's Traditional Series rails, and you pick how those rails go in: fixed base rails with universal brackets to keep the cost down, or fully removable SuperRails with custom brackets for your specific truck and a clean bed when the hitch comes out. Either way, slide need depends on your truck's bed length, so run your truck through the fitment finder (or ask your dealer) to confirm the 16K is the right SuperGlide before you order.
When you want the bed back, the head lifts off on a couple of pins and clips and takes 43 lbs off the job — though the slider base left in the bed is still a two-person lift. A Capture Plate is required and sold separately; check the Quick Connect fit chart for the one that matches your trailer.
