D’Angelo’s patented 12″ Greasy Plate assembly is the only fifth wheel assembly of its kind which has
owned the Australian market for over 50 years – and it is still selling strongly!

The 12″ Greasy Plate assembly has many advantages over the other stabilised assemblies (such as ballraces), primarily it can achieve ride heights up to 50mm lower.

The 12″ Greasy Plate has three overall heights available: 230mm Standard, 205mm Inverted and 180mm Super-Low.

The 12″ ‘Greasy’ also has patented safety blocks to help with rollover situations, and which are exclusive to D’Angelo.
