Today we're going to review part number RP83002. This is the Reese Lube Plate for Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches in a 10" diameter. This lube plate will prevent scratches on your skid plate of your 5th wheel trailer hitch and let's your trailer king pin slide into the hitch with ease. There's no need for any messy grease. The lube plate gives you the lubrication you need. It does offer extra protection with the large surface area and it is constructed of very durable nylon material. Just to give you an idea, this is what the king pin would look like that's on your pin box of your trailer. All you need to do is before you connect to your 5th wheel hitch, put your lube plate on there and then that'll slide into your 5th wheel hitch and give you the protection and lubrication that's needed.
Again the application on this is for Reese 5th wheel trailer hitches with 16,000 pound and 22,000 pound capacities. A few dimensions on this. The diameter again is 10" and the thickness on the plate itself is 3/16". That should do it for the review on part number RP83002, the Reese Lube Plate for Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches in 10" diameter. .
GREAT AS I EXPECTED..
Works well, excellent price
As described
What can I say, It's a lube plate.
Does what it was designed to do.
Excellent product, great price, great customer service and fast shipping.
A nice fit, noiseless, and mess free hookups. At a full 3/16 thick it should last forever!
Excellent service. Product arrived within a couple of days after ordering and the product was exactly as described. Excellent price also.
I have purchased items from etrailer in the past and was very happy with their products and service which is why I again ordered from them. This order was received when they said it would be and the items were again of good quality and at a very reasonable price.
Teflon lube plateThis is the second one I have bought. The last was on my previous fifth wheel which has been over 14 years. I probably should have changed it sooner but it still worked.
Excellent serviceDelivered very fast. The product was as I ordered and was advertised. Highly recommend etrailer.com for you trailering needs.
Packaging was very good. Now that I have it, I don’t know if the thickness of the plate will have a negative effect on the pin’s vertical alignment.
Works great and don’t even know it’s th ere
I received my new B&W Companion Hitch Assembly and installed it on my new Truck.
Perfect fit, and very easy to install.
Plenty of clearance for my bed cover, so I can leave my hitch in place, when not in use.
I appreciate the help from you guys in answering all of my questions, very helpful.
I look forward to using my new hitch shortly.
Thanks.
Solid product
I used this plays only a few times. It sounded like a good idea to avoid all the grease on the hitch plate. Unfortunately, it only lasted a few times and then was torn during a connection and I had to throw it away. Back to the grease.
So far seems like a good product. Priced right.
The center wore out in less than a year could not keep the disc on the pin when disconnected from truck.
Great service. Just what I needed to maintain my fifth wheel hitch.
I like the disk. It is some much easier than dealing with grease.
Works great
This is an excellent product, for keeping the plate on a 5th wheel hitch
lubricated, it lasts a long time, If you are a 1st time 5th wheel owner
you need to get one of these, it just pushes up over the king pin and stays there, it will not effect loading and unloading your 5th wheel.
