AMSOIL has introduced a new synthetic fifth-wheel grease it says is engineered to provide outstanding protection and performance in the harsh operating environments found in fifth-wheel hitches used in trucking and trailer applications.

The company says it provides protection against wear and corrosion while withstanding high loads and pressures, stays in place and resists water washout.

Fifth-wheel hitches must be lubricated in order to minimize wear between the fifth-wheel plate and the trailer, and ensure the trailer can pivot behind the pull vehicle. These components are frequently neglected and owners are unaware that special grease is required for optimal performance, AMSOIL says.

AMSOIL Synthetic Fifth-Wheel Grease is available in a convenient “no-mess” squeeze tube for ease in application.
