This will protect your 5th wheel hitch in your 5th wheel trailer when you use this Curt Lube Plate. It's a 10-inch diameter disk that will easily slide onto the kingpin of your 5th wheel trailer and eliminates any messy grease deposits and it will reduce normal wear and tear when you're towing your 5th wheel trailer with your 5th wheel hitch. Again, just to measure the diameter for you. Edge to edge it's going to be right at 10 inches and thickness on it is going to be right at about 3/16 of an inch. Just to show you, here's an example of a .. This is what the kingpin would look like on your 5th wheel trailer.
You just install this onto the kingpin itself and then when this installs into the 5th wheel hitch, it will give you a nice protection between your pin box of your 5th wheel trailer and the 5th wheel hitch itself.

Prevent scratches on your fifth-wheel hitch's skid plate and ease trailer hookup by installing this heavy-duty lube plate. Simply slips over your trailer's king pin.The Kurt hitch was very good and works as should. Etrailer was great price and shipping was very fast which allowed me to make the camping trip on time.
Hitch comes with a lube plate, but this one appears a bit thicker. No issues so far.
Works great! I use a similar product on my tractor trailers and I like these just the same. They are reasonably priced, easy to install and last forever! It’s still very important to grease the jaws and king pin but they really preserve the plate and hitch.
Order of lube plates arrived quickly - exactly what I needed!
Great product, heavy duty, good heavy welds. Sharp edges, had to grind, but worth it. A lot cheaper in cost than other ones, always happy was price and products from etrailer. Super fast shipping.
This is a must have item. If you want to have grease all over everything, you don't need this. Otherwise, this works excellent. Sorry Trailer is in storage still. Everyone should have one of these.
This arrived on time with the king pin box. The customer support was excellent even with the covid 19 slowing every thing down. Thanks Christina J.
Fast shipping, great communication
Great product, I can’t believe how well it cut down on the sound of the hitch!!
These lube plates make for much smoother turning
Received in great condition
This item worked great on our fifth wheel hitch. Very easy to install
Everything was what I expected
These disk work better than grease on 5th wheels and less messy. By the way everything I have ordered from etrailer has been what it was supposed to be and worked great, I will always order from etrailer, for fast delivery.
Richard - 04/22/2020Great customer service all the way. Recommend this product and company
I think etrailer is a great store if you own an RV ! Every time I need a part they have it , the staff is always helpful . My kind of one stop RV shop .
The Lube plate has held up well with no signs of wear. It is great to not have a bunch of grease to deal with in the truck bed when we're not hauling the fifth wheel.
We bought a Curt slider hitch 16516 and base rails with bracket kit. Everything was very well constructed. We were very impressed with the product. We installed everything ourselves after watching the video. We highly recommend watching the video. Everything went together without any problems. Very solid hitch.
Arraived as specified. Just need to install it. But these are great to eliminate the grease from the Pin Box if you happen to accidentally rub up against it, don’t have to grease my hitch plate either. Still have to grease the jaws, and functioning parts of the hitch, but there’s no grease spatter/dripped all over the hitch, of bed of my truck. I always keep an extra with the trailer in case it decides to crack from wear. Which is rare. But seen how they aren’t that expensive it’s cheap insurance.
It is great don’t have to get grease on everything in the back of truck
Appears to be a great product haven't used it yet.
I ordered this along with a new 5th wheel Hitch. Lisa D was the Etrailer rep and was extremely knowledgeable. She assisted me in my transaction and accommodated my needs based on the information that was given. Great prices as well. I will be buying from Etrailer in the future based on this experience. BTW: this product works as designed and is a cheap and clean alternative to constant greasing. Thanks for the assistance Lisa.
Works great. Don’t have to use grease on face of hitch.
Purchased the lube plate along with a B&W Companion hitch. Super fast delivery and cheaper than I could have purchased it here then free shipping on top of it!
Put it on and forget about it. No grease, no mess. In the last year I've put about 8000 miles on this lube plate pulling a large fifth wheel camper. I see no wear, no squeaks, no binding.
