In Depth Information about Swivelwheel Transportation Systems:
The Swivelwheel transport system uses a caster wheel system. The Swivelwheel is compatible with fifth wheel trailers and motor homes (Class A, B and C) That have a Class III Receiver or more.
Fast Master Products have five different Swivelwheel models that range from our ECO to our Tandem Tow with weights ranging from 500 lbs to 1200 lbs.
Note: Be aware! Since the introduction of the Swivelwheel product line and the rise in popularity of the Swivelwheel, manufactures have copied our Swivelwheel name and are posting it on their websites, calling their products Swivelwheels. Accept no substitutes. The Swivelwheel Systems cannot jackknife or sway unlike traditional trailers. The Swivelwheel system will always track with the tow vehicle whether in traveling mode or backing up. This is especially important when attached to a fifth wheel and motor home. Unlike a trailer that must be disconnected prior to backing up a fifth wheel or motor home.
Contrary to popular belief in some chat rooms, Fast Master Products Swivelwheel Systems do not have what they call caster flutter while driving down the road at any speed. Our wheel assemblies are engineered to remove the flutter that other manufacturers have. The systems also include an adjustable friction pad to alleviate any chance of flutter due to outside causes. All swivelwheel systems come standard with front removable jack stand legs with wheels for ease of moving around while disconnected from tow vehicle.
The swivelwheel systems incorporate a torsion suspension, which is a proprietary product designed by Fast Master Products Inc. The wheel assemblies utilizes a 5.70-8 C 6 Ply which are highway rated tires. The front deck height on all Swivelwheel Systems are adjustable to accommodate the receiver height on the tow vehicle.
Swivelwheel Towing Requirements :
It is up to the Swivelwheel system owner to evaluate the frame and capacity of the tow vehicle. All Swivelwheel Transport Systems utilize a class II, III or IV receiver package that is installed onto the tow vehicle.
(Fast master products is not responsible for damage to a tow vehicle that does not have the capacity to utilize the Swivelwheel system.)
Chassis Frame needs to be able to support the weight of the system plus any added loads. All Swivelwheel systems will have about a 50/50 split for tongue weight. Installing a Swivelwheel system onto a chassis frame that does not have the capacity to handle a Swivelwheel system could result in damage.
We always inform the customer of the requirements of the tow vehicle. The Swivelwheel was designed for fifth wheels trailers and motor homes(Class A, B, and C) coaches. – NOT DESIGNED FOR TRAVEL TRAILERS
Note: Specs for fifth wheels must be 30 ft or more with a dry weight of 10,000 lbs or more anything under that could cause unintended effects to the fifth-wheel. Loading of the platform has a effect on the handling of the system. The load should be centered as much as possible. This distributes the weights evenly between the fifth wheel and Swivelwheel tire.
Customers are responsible for the Receiver package install, we recommend that the receiver package should be flush with the back of the Fifth wheel or vehicle but no more than 4″ past the back. Compatibility of the fifth wheel and the receiver Package is between the installer and the customer, we always recommend this.
A frequent question asked is if the Swivelwheel system is legal to tow in all states. We consider the system an extension of the Fifth wheel or motor home. (Not a Trailer). A trailer is classified by a ball mount, our Swivelwheel systems does not utilize a ball mount. There are other classifications but the Swivelwheel just does not meet them.
There are basically 22 states that do not allow double towing, some of them call it triple towing. These 22 states is were we do most of our business and our customers travel through all of these states and for over 19 years our customers have had no issues that we are aware of.
Although we do not agree, The State of New York has decided to re class our swivelwheel system therefore, it could fall under the double/triple towing law.
