The Lippert 118127 is the correct OEM-spec fixed flush head assembly for V-Tech 2.5 x 2.5 electric through-frame slide-out systems. When your slide-out flush head is damaged, worn, or missing, this direct replacement restores proper slide-out engagement and retraction without modification or adapter work.
Lippert's V-Tech slide-out platform uses a flush head assembly as the critical interface point between the electric drive motor/rack and the slide-out room itself. The fixed flush head variant mounts in a stationary position on the through-frame rail assembly, engaging the room during extension and retraction cycles. Using the correct part number -- 118127 -- ensures proper engagement geometry with the V-Tech rack-and-pinion mechanism.
This is not a universal slide-out part. It is engineered specifically for the 2.5 x 2.5 inch electric through-frame configuration used across a wide range of Lippert-equipped travel trailers, fifth wheels, and motorhomes. If your rig left the factory with a V-Tech electric through-frame slide, this is the assembly to stock as a service spare or install as a direct swap.
Lippert part number 118127 ensures exact fitment with no guesswork on compatibility for V-Tech electric through-frame applications.
The fixed flush head style provides a stable, non-adjustable mounting point on the through-frame rail -- the correct configuration for standard V-Tech electric slide-out installations.
Designed specifically for 2.5 x 2.5 inch square tube through-frame rail systems, matching the most common V-Tech electric slide-out configuration.
At 6 lbs., this assembly is light enough for a single technician or capable DIYer to handle during a slide-out service job without additional equipment.
Before ordering, confirm your slide-out uses the electric through-frame design -- not a hydraulic, cable-over-drum, or rack-and-pinion under-floor system. The through-frame design routes the slide-out rails through the main frame of the RV. Also verify your rail is 2.5 x 2.5 inches. If your system uses a different rail dimension or a different Lippert slide-out platform (such as the Power Gear or Schwintek), a different part number will be required.
Lippert produces both fixed and adjustable flush head assemblies for the V-Tech system. The 118127 is the fixed version. Installing a fixed head where an adjustable head is required (or vice versa) will result in improper engagement. Match the replacement type to what was originally installed on your slide-out rail before ordering.
