Great video 👍 it looks like Molykote makes a lot of different greases for specific applications. Can you recommend a specific grease (i.e. part number). Thank you
In my opinion, what grease is used in this application is far less important than the frequency that it is applied. We have tried a few different products and they all seem to just disappear. All I can guess is the centrifugal forces allows the grease to get past the seal. So my recommendation is to go to your local industrial supplier and buy whatever grease they have in stock that is intended for roller bearings. Simple and effective.
Thanks for the vid. I like the idea of not having to use the stuff they charge $60+ an ounce for. Can you post some sources for the grease fitting and what type and brand name of grease you recommend.

I also would like to know where you got the fitting
@diyalaskanlifestyle it's a generic fitting.. go to an auto parts store and match it up.. 1/8" NPT and M8 metric are common sizes
Where do I find that grease tool?
You can get the tool from Grip n Rip in the US or Herbs Industrial and Recreation here in Canada
link to grease?? I'd rather grease more often and not worry about the $60 per ounce isoflex
I don’t have a link for the grease, I just buy it locally. It’s a Molykote product used in industrial electric motors.
👍
What grease are you using?
It’s a Molykote product we use in electric motors where I work
What size grease nipple did you use, a m10 and 1/8 won’t fit or thread?
It’s been a couple years now but I think I tapped it to take a common npt pipe thread
