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. .

Works with Reese 16,000-lb, 22,000-lb, and 30,000-lb fifth-wheel trailer hitches.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.
It's a standard lube plate. Not much else to say about it. It arrived quickly and undamaged as expected.
Whats not to like? Get one of these, or coat your hitch plate with grease. The choice is yours.
Quick delivery item is as advertised
Steven R - 09/08/2021I had a few questions about the lube plate and Tim M. Was very helpful in fielding my questions. Then after the questions, he was very helpful in placing my order. I was notified when the product shipped and when it was suppose to be delivered. This is not my first order from etrailer. They are my go to place for my trailer needs. Thank you!!
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.
VERLAN S - 10/24/2014This 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.
Jim K - 07/08/2016It 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.
Al - 06/05/2016This plate applies very easily. One thing though - - we wish the plate was a little less thicker as it gets caught up in the pin asometimes and has to be replaced.
The product appears to be as advertised and looks heavy duty.
Paul - 04/07/2021Perfect fit for my kingpin coupler
Big thanks to the etrailer team for professionalism, friendly, courtesy and responsive customer service. They were with me from the time I placed my order till delivery. I ordered a B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch which was delivered in 2 days. The shipping box was torn open during shipping which resulted in the paint on the base being rubbed to bare metal. Rose and Cathy were very supportive in making it right. Another base was shipped and double boxed the second time. They took great care of me and I appreciate that. I will definitely order from etrailer again and highly recommend them. Great prices to boot. Thanks again to the etrailer team. I will provide product feedback once installed.
Fit perfectly!
Great product. I can feel the difference with this plate, it tightens up the hitch and reduces the amount of slack. I won't run my fifth wheel without one again.
Bob B - 07/09/2020This plate seems to do the job well
As advertised
This works great. I love it
This hitch has a feature or two we didn't even expect. It was an easy install and is performing great. Plenty of maneuverability and rock stable. etrailer's service was incredible and stayed on top of the delivery until we got it. We thought they went the second mile to make sure we got our hitch.
Great service. Just what I needed to maintain my fifth wheel hitch.
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.
I’ve only used a grease lube plate and got tired of the greasy mess. Looking forward to trying this style. 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!!
This plate arrived with several other products I ordered from e-trailer. The plate along with the other products are exactly what I ordered and arrived in excellent condition. I recommend e-trailer.
Fantastic!
Item as advertised and received in short order.
good product
