Yes, a tow ball should be lubricated with grease to ensure smooth operation and to reduce wear and tear. Greasing the tow ball helps prevent rust and corrosion, as well as minimizes friction between the ball and the hitch. It's important to use the appropriate type of grease, typically a heavy-duty or marine-grade grease, to withstand the elements and the stresses of towing. Regular maintenance, including reapplying grease as needed, is essential for safe towing.
