Minimizer Insert-style Slick Plate

Oct. 23, 2017

The Insert-Style Slick Plate is specifically designed for trucks that have Holland fifth wheels with built-in lube plate inserts.

These models include the Holland FWAL, FW31 and FW33 fifth wheels. The Insert-Style Slick Plate joins the 5th Wheel Slick Plate, Trailer Slick Plate, and Slick Disk in the company’s greaseless product line.

By using the Insert-Style Slick Plate, truck drivers and fleets no longer have to grease the fifth wheel’s top plate, according to Minimizer.

Navistar’s new 12.7-liter S13 diesel, shown here in an HX tractor, is part of an integrated powertrain that includes a proprietary automated manual transmission. It will be the last diesel developed by the company, which looks toward a transition to electric power. But the engine is typical of modern diesels that will work reliably and economically well into the 2030s.
