For a metal valve stem for a fifth wheel trailer wheel you would want the Americana valve stem part # AM20906 Mark. This easily can handle more than 80 psi and it comes with sleeves to allow it to fit both valve stem hole diameters found on trailer wheels. This is a standard length valve stem which would work fine with a TireMinder TPMS like the # TM29FR.
