Though The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package # BWRVK3305 is only for OEM prep packages it will not work with your 2015 Ford F-450 Super Duty. You will need The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel # BWRVK3255 and The B&W Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit # BWRVR3200.
The hitch has 3/4 inch thick dual jaws that provide 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact. The hitch has 4 height settings to fit your application (16 inch to 19 inch). It has a gray powder coated steel that is corrosion resistant.
The 5th wheel hitch has a gross towing weight up to 18,000 pounds and has a vertical load limit up to 4,500 pounds. I would recommend checking your vehicle's manual to find the proper towing capacity of your vehicle.
