Best Quality Cartridge Grease

[tinman]

..2 and half times the cost at least ....... is it that much better ?
greasing trimmer rotor bearings takes about 1 cartridge ........i usually push a bit more in at lunchtime as well could get a bit pricey.

it depends where you buy it.
36 of them would cost me about £120, for that price i personally think its worth it.
on the other hand there are plenty of folk who say oil is oil and thats their choice, i like it as a grease having tried a few.

Try the Lock'N'Lube coupler that will fit on any grease gun (we stock M10 and 1/8BSP for American guns) https://www.speedygrease.com/collections/grease-products/products/locknlube

That looks very similar to a G-coupler.

Well I am using just bog standard Lithium Grease and using it fairly often.

Buying Fuchs from LRT Lubricants - all prices are on their website

I use standard EP2 Grease half the time too, cracking price for 36 Cartridges and usually next day from here

Good news regards Lube-shuttle carts.
Have sourced Lithium complex grease cartridges at £1.52 each, branded Total, from fuel supplier to buying group.
Don't know why I didn't discover this sooner.

Anyone know about Granit branded grease? I'ts the only regular lithium grease I can find at a decent price.

Sounds like a top quality grease,get what you pay for i guess.
well of course the best thing is to have some of different types, then use accordingly , don't want to make greasing up to complicated tho .....to discourage anyone less than enthusiastic about the job

got ordinary brown grease ......and the red stuff (which does seem 'stickier' and if it gets on yer hands ..is harder to get off ..if that's anything to go by. ie exposed pins in bushes ..... i'm not so worried about temp. ive got the idea that ordinary lith.complex will deal with most of mine (rotor bearings etc.)

How do you know they are not the same....but with a different dye in?

Not being awkward, but have seen so many people differentiate things by colour saying "red is better than blue" etc. when actually the only difference in those cases was the colour.

true. depends what one you buy.
but the spec. says its better, i think, ..wouldnt just buy it on colour.
it is helpful for it to look different tho at times.

Alway find it amazing how farmers will spend tens of thousands of pounds on machinery and then spend ages trying to find the cheapest grease or baler twine.

Got some Jcb HP grease about month ago £2 a cartridge.

But then pay silly money for a box of cartridges in a sale !!

 

[Grouse]

And not use them

That is the one I have sourced, at £1.52 per 400g cartridge.
I prefer to say best value for money...

 

[Vincent]

This is what I use, not a full lip on the tube but many tabs. I think it's good grease and not to dear.
Alemite grease guns here no problem with air locks and a good coupler.

 

[76masseyman]

+1 for an Allemite gun.
