Hey Rich, The Curt Wedge # C16992 is the correct wedge for your Curt A25 5th wheel hitch, and will work perfectly with your Lippert Turning Point pin box.
A broken wedge is not safe in any way. If the wedge fails to keep the king pin from turning in your hitch jaws, you'll have 2 pivot points and run the risk of all sorts of issues like losing control of your trailer. I'd replace your broken wedge ASAP.

Hey Rich, how did things go after you replaced the broken wedge on your Curt A25 hitch? It’d be great to know if the new wedge locked in securely with your Turning Point pin box. Your update could make it easier for others dealing with the same setup.
