8000 lb load and 32000 lb draw is one big benefit. The Holland/Binkley is a step up from the lightweight rv hitches like B&W/Reese/Curt/Pulrite/etc.
And their popular with rv and commercial folks with custom hauler beds...... and air ride hitch systems like the EZ Floater.
My first Binkley was a used unit and looked like the picture. The old guy that had it on a flatrbed F450 and pulled a 38' Teton and like most RV folks never lubed it.
I tore it down and gave all the pins and holes a cleaning and re-lubed with a dab of red grease. Much better/quicker jaw and pivoting operation.
I don't see the 8000/32000 spec for removable Hensley air ride hitches with the Holland/Binkley head. Perhaps that is what the head itself is rated for? ... I don't know.
Hensley Trailer Saver 5th wheel hitches are rated as follows, pin rating/gross trailer weight rating:
BD3 3500/18000
TS3 4500/25000
TSLB2H 5000, or 7500 w/opt 3rd air bag/32000
