Your 5th wheel works hard every time you hook up a trailer. It’s the pivot point, the connection, and the surface that carries the load, keeping your truck and trailer moving safely and smoothly. But metal-on-metal contact creates friction, and without proper lubrication, your 5th wheel can quickly wear down, corrode, make noise, or even fail.

Regular greasing isn’t just about keeping things running—it’s about protecting your equipment and avoiding expensive repairs. A well-lubricated 5th wheel helps reduce friction, prevents damage, cuts down on noise and vibration, and makes steering easier on the driver. Whether you’re hauling across the country or maneuvering into a tight dock, skipping grease is asking for trouble.

For drivers who want a quick and clean way to lubricate on the road, Counteract’s 2oz 5th Wheel Grease Packets are an easy solution. Just place a packet on each side of the plate, back the trailer into position, and the packets burst under pressure, spreading the grease exactly where it’s needed. No mess, no tools, and no guessing about how much to apply. They’re perfect for roadside touch-ups or quick checks in the yard.

If you prefer a more hands-on approach, Counteract also offers 8oz grease tubes for manual application. These are great for shop work, scheduled maintenance, or fleet use. The grease is thick and durable, designed specifically to handle the wear that comes with 5th wheel use.

One important note—don’t mix different types of grease. If you’re switching to Counteract’s formula, make sure to clean off any old product first. This ensures you get the best performance and avoid any compatibility issues.

Whether you choose the packets for convenience or the tubes for control, keeping your 5th wheel properly greased is one of the simplest ways to extend its life and keep your rig rolling smoothly.
