TheFSMOSynthetic Fifth-Wheel Grease
Synthetic Fifth-Wheel Grease
AMSOIL Synthetic Fifth-Wheel Grease is a heavy-duty lubricant engineered to provide outstanding protection and performance in the heavily-loaded, harsh operating environments specific to fifth-wheel hitches used in trucking and trailer applications.
Fifth-wheel hitches must be lubricated in order to minimize wear between the fifth-wheel plate and the trailer, ensure the trailer can pivot behind the pull vehicle (increasing fuel economy and reducing abnormal steering-component and tire wear) and reduce the tendency toward jackknifing. AMSOIL Synthetic Fifth-Wheel Grease is a heavy-duty lubricant engineered to provide outstanding protection and performance in the heavily-loaded, harsh operating environments specific to fifth-wheel hitches used in trucking and trailer applications.
