A Game-Changer in Towing Adaptation
You think swapping a fifth wheel for a gooseneck is easy-peasy? Not unless you've got an award-winning adapter on your hands. SuperSprings International and B&W Trailer Hitches have set the bar sky-high with their latest creation—a fifth wheel to gooseneck adapter making waves in the market.
Winning Big in the RV Market
This isn't just hype—it’s well-deserved recognition. The adapter snagged the 2026 Product of the Year at the RV Industry Association's Aftermarket Conference. Why? Because it takes a basic solution, polishes it with smart engineering, and hands it back to the customer as pure, unadulterated utility.
This collaboration isn’t about slapping old tech into a shiny new box—it’s true innovation that end-users rave about.
In short, these two companies have nailed it, creating a towing experience that's not just functional but honed to perfection.
Marriage of Expertise for Maximum Impact
How did they do it? By marrying B&W’s towing expertise with SuperSprings’ SumoSprings®—all-American-made goodness. The custom SumoSpring developed for this adapter isn’t an off-the-shelf affair; it's unique and purpose-built. Just the ticket for absorbing road shocks and taming the beast that is 'chucking.'
What Sets This Adapter Apart?
There’s more to this adapter than meets the eye. It's about what the SumoSpring brings to the table—superior dampening, dual-axis cushioning, and the icing on the cake: maintenance-free operation.
B&W’s trapezoidal linkage works in harmony with these springs, producing a ride that isn’t just stable but downright pleasant, especially in the stop-and-go havoc we call traffic. The reward? That sweet spot where necessary technology meets elegant execution.
Solving Real-World Problems, One Ride at a Time
Let’s face it, getting your rig hitched up can feel like a chore. B&W’s design tweaks? They’ve made connecting the trailer to the truck less of a headache. An easy-to-use large funnel for guiding the gooseneck ball and an automatic latching system? Brilliant. Because, at the end of the day, it’s these little bits of genius that smoothen the whole experience.
- Reduces road-induced movement
- Maintains ease of connection
- Improves tow stability
- Makes maintenance a thing of the past
Honoring Craftsmanship and Collaboration
To think it’s also a testament to good ol' American manufacturing makes it all the more rewarding. The control these brands have over the product’s crafting process boils down to that American promise of quality and consistency.
B&W and SuperSprings’ partnership embodies the kind of forward-thinking collaboration that's invigorating the RV industry.
They've put in the grunt work, refining the SumoSpring's characteristics and their adapter's performance until they hit a home run. Quality, after all, doesn't happen by accident.
Not Just Another Tech Gizmo
This isn’t about bolting on new tech for the heck of it. For B&W and SuperSprings, it’s about making technology work harder without making it more complex. No air pumps, no compressors, no hassles—just reliable towing every time.
So there you have it. A partnership built around meeting real needs and producing real results. These movers and shakers have figured out that it takes more than just raw tech to improve the towing experience—it's about sharp execution and customer satisfaction.
