Expert Reply:
The king pin on a 5th wheel trailer is a standard 2 inch pin. Many semi-trailers will use a 2 inch king pin, but some use a 3-1/2 inch. If you have the 2 inch king pin, the Lube Plate for Elite Series and Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 12" Diameter # RP83001 will work very well with your 18 wheeler 5th wheel.
The only thing I can't speak to is how it will wear with weight because it hasn't been tested beyond 20,000 lbs towing or roughly 5,000 lbs hitch weight.
