It applies to the fifth wheels intended to hitch on semi-trailers equipped with a:

50 coupling pin as defined in ISO337;

Dimensions not specified are left to the discretion of the component manufacturer.

Test conditions and strength requirements to be met by 50 and 90 fifth wheel coupling are specified in ISO8717.
