Question:
I recently purchased a pre-greased hub CE13515 from etrailer along with a set of buddy bearings. Please tell me what brand and kind of grease this is so I can get the same grease for the buddy bearings. The grease is described as heavy-duty grease for marine applications. It is greenish in color. Is the above grease compatible with the LMX red grease # L11390 that I also purchased from you? Thanks

Expert Reply:
According to CE Smith they use a Calcium Sulfonate grease on their hubs like the CE Smith Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # CE13515. This would require either the Tub # LOC64FR or Tube # LOC54FR of grease. While the color of this grease is tan it will still work as they have the same complex. The LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease # L11390 you found is a Lithium complex and should not be mixed with the Calcium Sulfonate grease.
