LINE-X Abrasion Resistance

The Challenge - Hitch receiver plates typically require grease or a Teflon disc to minimize friction between the receiver and trailer. The problem arises when a greased receiver hooks on to atrailer with a Teflon disc as the grease causes a breakdown of the Teflon coating. Each time a trailer is switched, depending on what has been used, the receiver plate has to be cleaned off all grease or recoated. This process is messy, expensive and takes time.

The Solution - LINE-X offers a system where the hitch plate is coated over the entire top face with LINE-X XS-350. This product, while offering exceptional corrosion and abrasion resistance, provides a smooth slippery surface eliminating the necessity of adding grease or slip disks to the assembly making for quick and easy hook-ups every time.
