Bear with me a moment, but the answer is both yes and no, depending on the PullRite ISR hitch you have. PullRite has both a fixed and sliding ISR series of hitch; if you have the sliding hitch then you cannot use the adapter. If your PullRite ISR is fixed then yes, you can indeed use the Demco adapter, which is the following part number:

- Demco 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitches # DM6140

Since the fixed PullRite ISR is for industry-standard rails, it will fit and work perfectly on the Demco Adapter # DM6140. But auto slide hitches like the SuperGlide are not compatible because there is too much torque placed on the adapter when the hitch head moves.

If you need a sliding 5th wheel hitch with the Turnoverball, the best option is the B&W Companion Slider Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3400.
