Today we're going to be taking a look at Part Number 58117. This is the Reese white grease hitch ball lubricant. This lube is going to get applied to your hitch ball. It's going to reduce the amount of friction between the hitch ball and the socket of your coupler. It's going to help extend the life of your hitch ball and make connecting and disconnecting much easier. The lube is going to be a non-toxic white grease that's designed so it won't break down.
It's also water resistant. It's going to come packaged in a four ounce container. By having the hitch ball lubricated, it can help keep your locking mechanism on your coupler working smoothly and properly, which is also going to prevent corrosion and it can also help quiet the connection. That's going to do it for today's review of Part Number 58117. This is the Reese white grease hitch ball lubricant. .

I looked everywhere for this product - so had to order on line. ETrailer had the best price. This is the best lube for my ball hitch on my horse trailer. So glad I found it again. Thanks. 102015
Lucinda L - 09/30/2014Love this product. We have used it for years. Haven't received the new batch yet since they sent a tail light instead of ball lube. 208218

Great product!!! Works better on hitch ball better than gun grease by far!! I use this grease on my bumper hitch ball as well as my gooseneck hitch ball. Great lubricate!! 263102
Randy M - 06/21/2017I did a search to figure out why my RV camper was not unhitching easily from the towing ball. Honestly, this was such a problem that we could not figure out and were weary of jumping on the hitch and trying to jiggle the ball to break free. What I liked so much about your company was that your company suggested possible reasons that the ball was sticking and offered several solutions. I realized that I was unhitching on uneven ground and that a lube might help. The lube worked exactly as you said. A very inexpensive solution plus we knew why it was happening and could reposition the camper. Product arrived quickly and customer service attentive. Good job!! 570810
Reese White Grease Hitch Ball Lube is a good water resistant grease for all hitches. It will extend the life of your hitch by preventing binding, rusting, and galling. I always wipe the ball and hitch clean when I am done towing. 341119
MLP - 02/12/2018Have used this product for a very long time, with excellent results. Lubication is a wonderful thing! I learned the hard way a long time ago when my trailer hitch ball was stuck. Had a hard time freeing up. Never used a lube before and this product is specific to hitch balls. No more problems. The price is the best here at etrailer.com. A jar will last many years. 121895
Robert - 03/24/2015Have used this for years. I could not find it in the the local hardware and RV stores. Much better than the tube of synthetic grease that I had to settle with awhile ago. 236397
Nick - 03/12/2017I recently received the Reese White Grease and applied it to my hitch ball andI am real anxious to try it with my trailer. I received it in the mail faster than I thought it would arrive. I am very satisfied with their mail service.Thanks ETrailer, I will be ordering again. 335102
Product worked well. I used it this weekend to hitch/unhitch my travel trailer to my truck and even though the ball didn't slide out as easy as I'd hoped, it took less rocking back and forth than without the lube. I was told that these types of lubricants can collect a lot of dirt and make the situation worse, but I am willing to test that theory out myself. 513620
As expected, this Reese hitch lube works very well to protect both sides of the connection. Used this before, and came back for more. I like it much better than bearing grease, which is what I used to use. I apply it on the ball and lubed areas of my load levelers on very large and regular sized trailers. Certainly recommend. 253831
Chris f - 05/30/2017Does the job! Put this on my trailer ball and no more squeaks when towing! Great product, handy size. 201479
Angela - 06/11/2016This little jar of "stuff" has saved me many headaches when unhitching my travel trailer from the tow vehicle. Before I bought this I would have a tough time sometimes getting the hitch off the ball and also difficulty getting it back on. This lubricant makes it so easy to hitch up and unhitch. The only word of warning is to watch out for the hitch ball with your pant legs because it will leave a major grease stain on your pants if you rub against the ball. Its white going on but it turns black from friction I guess. It lasts a very long time too because you only need a very little bit each time. 301875
Been using this product for a year to grease the trailer hitch ball, it does a good job. 770298
I have not used grease on my hitch ball, for the last 30 years, and it's proof because they are all worn with groves. I decided to give it a try, and use the covers to keep them in good shape. 760476
great product to keep hitch balls rust free when used with the covers. 745935
I own a 31ft Cabin Cruiser boat that weighs around 10,000lbs and the trailer itself weighs over 2000lbs. Every time I would pull the boat out of the water the back of my truck would squat a little and the trailer jack would occasionally scrape the ground. So I purchased this Hitch Ball and mounted it upside down so that the ball is higher than the bumper of the truck and now the trailer is level when cruising down the interstate fully loaded. This Hitch ball is very heavy and completlely solid! I dont hear any noises coming from the hitch at all. Etrailer had the best price around and will always contine shopping with them anytime I need any trailer parts 737093
Lasts a long time, keeps the ball in good shape. 727830

Great stuff. Keeps my hitch silent as a country night and has stopped any wear and tear on ball. A must have for any RVer. 704714

Great product. I use it every time I hook up my travel trailer. I really keeps the ball ware down. 682703
Looks good, but only received it today so only three stars until it actually gets used. 678134
Thanks for packing the greasy jar in a separate bag! And glad it is a small container which will fit in my camper. 675071
