Thanks for reaching out again, Dave.
You can definitely add grease to the Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts for Boat Trailer Rollers # CE10722A but it isn't necessary.
If you were to apply grease to it you would want to use marine grease like part # L74FR. Just be sure you don't get grease where the pal nuts install otherwise they might not install as snug as they need to.
