best grease for outer bearings

[midwestmadness775]

What kind of grease works best to seal the bearings and keep the water out? And hoe often do you grease them? I was looking at the waterproof amsoil grease but I want your guys' opionions first

[Dozerlarry]

I use marine grade grease every 10 hours.

I was told Marine grease for outboard motors was very good due to being water resistant. Its all I ever used on our Avenger bearings.

Yep same here marine grade grease inner and outer bearings.

[Dozerlarry]

I'm glad to see you guys using marine grease, looks like I'm doing the right thing for the first time in my life!

I've been using lucas red and tacky for about 4 yrs now and have notice a significant increase in bearing life. I grease my about every 10 hrs.

hi ,
lithium /calcium combination grease
[Donnot use lithium or either calcium individually ,both are below average when done this way ]
This grease can be a little hard to find
Shell S2 v220AC
The A is for Aquius [water operation suitable ]

The other grease is alluminum complex grease ,far better than lithium
[purge the old grease b4 use or flush with new grease ]
Found in some marine greases
marine STA lube , crc marine grease water wash out less than 5 %

Dupont marine grease with Teflon water washout less than 1%

OMega underwater grease used in industry only apparently very very good but very expensive no tech info
