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. .

Again, etrailer has come through with a great product at a great price. Thanks etrailer for being my #1 go to supplier for my rv needs!! 572908
I use this with my Reese 5th.Airborne and a B&W Companion hitch. This particular lube plate works very well with my setup. I usually buy two and just replace it at the beginning of the Summer each year, so I buy a couple every other year. It last longer than that for sure, I just change out once a year for my on peace of mind. Bill 406288
THE REESE 5TH WHEEL LUBE PLATE IS A SUPERIOR PRODUCT, AND IT FIT PERFECTLY. THE ORDERING AND SHIPPING OF THE MERCHANDISE WAS PROFESSIONAL AND PLEASANT. I WILL ORDER FROM ETRAILER AGAIN. 104974
VERLAN S - 10/24/2014It was a simple order for 5th wheel poly lube plates. It was filled promptly, shipped immediately, received in excellent condition, and at a good price. 201156
Al - 06/05/2016I 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. 462705
Works great! 825184
Fit my 2015 3/4 ton perfectly!! Only issue is that in order to remove from the bed of the truck you have to remove the upper unit. Would be nice if instead of the long bar to lock it in, if they would use a castle nut on top instead. And have a sleeve around the nut (with enough clearance for a socket) with 2 vertically slotted holes that a quick clip could fit through. So all you'd have to do is take out the quick clip, turn the castle nut with a socket, and pick it out with a hoist or skidsteer. 812388
Best hitch on the market. I feel really confident with this hitch and how it locks on to the pin. Every part seems well built. 811539

This product does not require much of a review. It's just a simple plate. What does merit review is the customer service rendered during ordering. The agent, Kathy, could not have been more helpful. I was not sure which lube plate was the correct one. Kathy consulted with one or two technicians there at etrailer and came back with a recommendation I am quite happy with. Well done, Kathy. 805137
I ordered two to have one on had. The one I put on the hitch is holding up great. Since putting it on we have towed the camper over 5000 miles. Always satisfied with your company and products. Thanks 799115

Looks great haven't used it yet. 765051
I have had this hitch for over a year now with no issues. I would buy it again. It is heavy but worth it. Would like to see a way to secure the plate to the base! 764733
The hitch system I ordered worked out great and fit perfectly. I had an issue with the harness. One of the wires was pulled out of the socket, but etrailer had me another one in the mail the same day I called. Excellent customer service. 764575
Friction disc was great when I was using my original fifth wheel hitch. 763780
