It can get as cold as minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit and as hot as 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yes, I believe so. It performs admirably in bearings.
While it worked well on my travel trailer, I would suggest looking into FVP brand marine grease, which is designed specifically for boat trailers.
It has a reddish hue to it.
Selected User Reviews For Timken GR224C Wheel Bearing Grease (14oz Cartridge) (Packaging May Vary)
Plastic was also used to wrap the bulk grease I purchased. The top did not come off as a result of this. It should have been the same for this cartridge. A small amount of grease was squeezed out after the cap was removed. Fortunately, it wasn't a significant amount. If the package had been crushed, things could have gotten a lot worse. br>br>There's nothing wrong with the product; I just wish there was a way to tell Amazon to secure this cartridge better than writing this review, which they may or may not see.
In the middle of summer (110 F. ), I picked up tubes from an Amazon locker. In the locker, the odds are much better. The grease had not separated, the tubes had not sprung a leak, and the viscosity of the grease was still quite high. I've tried a few other greases, and they all behave differently at that temperature than this Timken grease. So it's only anecdotal, but it's worth noting. My guess is that it'll be well worth the extra cash.
This was purchased for wheel bearings, but I soon discovered that there are different grease classifications for different applications. This is a GC grease. LB grade. Wheel bearings and tie rod ends are among the services provided by this company. Joints made up of balls.
I'd suggest it. The first shipment I received was damaged when it arrived. I contacted the distributor about the problem, and the item was replaced without any damage. Thank You.
The grease is thick and tacky, and there is more than enough to pack and apply two pairs of wheel bearings in the hub. I've put about 3000 miles on it and had a couple of off-road adventures and have yet to have any issues. Timken has a great reputation, so you can't go wrong.
It's grease, and it appears to be good stuff, though I don't have access to a lab or testing facility to be sure; time will tell. I used it on all new bearing sets on my trailer, which is about to go through a 2,000 mile real-world test.
On a mildly warm day, it leaked everywhere, creating a shambles. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> It isn't just the heat that is causing the problems. Even when it's 50 degrees outside, the stuff leaks. It has now been discarded.
On my Travel Trailer, I used this to replace the wheel bearings. When replacing old grease with this red, you can see the old grease coming out because it's a rich red color.
