Cartridge quality Poor

All three cartridges were leaking and I had to clean them. They weren't full either, so I don't know if that's really the right amount. I'm hoping the grease is actually lithium as I really can't tell, but are cartridges an example of quality control?

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Average

Good Stuff: Oils & Fluids

They are well packaged and fit the gun exactly. The top rim is a bit large when rotating the gun, but take your time and make sure the tube is fully inserted. We get pretty heavy rain and heat so I wanted lithium. I'm happy with what I got and would definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Doubtful

Cheap lube but it works

Lube doesn't always have to be high quality. I use this on my tractor and I can say it's not as good as "good" stuff. But tractors also often have to be lubricated. So why use an expensive lube when it just washes out? Please note these are small tubes and will not fit in a standard grease gun.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Negative gift

NOT designed for wheel bearings. Very thin.

Not suitable for wheel bearings. I have used this product (I liked the little mini grease gun) to "refill" my trailer bearings. After 100 miles I had slush (thank goodness I had to stop for something and I saw it) because it mixed with the existing lube and made it worse. I had to clean and reseal the bearing. Wheel bearing grease requires this classification "NLGI #2 Grade GC-LB". "B" means that it is suitable for wheel bearings.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Nothing here

Do your homework in greases

It's not even rated for a car chassis." I was looking for a lube for my 3 ounce syringe to lubricate my truck chassis. After careful research I found it I have much better LB and GC LB rated items (for car chassis). I even found a synthetic lube that is a bit more expensive but protects the chassis much better (like Amsoil synthetic chassis lube). I plan to review this item I definitely don't want that grease in my truck chassis.

Pros
  • Lithium
Cons
  • Only available in black

Hoses are only half full

The lube itself seems fine, but I have a volume problem. Maybe I ran into an inferior batch as all three were filled to 50-60% max. To give you a good idea of how much lube you're getting, I replaced the end links on my WK2 JGC Moog end links. One tube of the new tube was not enough for the end links. I will continue to buy other brands until reading a recent review that they now fill tubes at least 75%. The only reason I'm not mad at the seller is that my purchase price was less than half of…

  • Oils and Fluids

Good Quality Grease

I was a bit hesitant at first when trying this product but it was all I had in my refill box so I used it. It turns out that lithium grease is still lithium grease, no matter what color it is. I needed to lubricate the bearings on the cutterblock on my 25 year old McClane/Briggs machine. I have since used it on my tractor and most recently submerged and oiled the front of my 2000, 200,000. Mile S-10 work truck. This is where my lubrication ended. I was thrilled to see that Amazon was selling…
