Question:
Is this a good grease for wheel bearings on a snowmobile trailer?

Hey Nathan,
Since this is going on a snowmobile you would want a grease that's designed for low temperatures and water resistant. The Loctite ViperLube # LOC54FR has a -40 to 500 deg F temperature range but isn't made for marine use so it would likely break down faster with all the moisture from the snow and rust out your bearings/spindle.
You'll want something like the Mystik® JT-6® Low Temp #2 Grease. I tried to get some added to our selection but our suppliers unfortunately don't offer any. You might be able to find some at your local hardware store, if not I'd just reach out directly to the manufacturer.
If you have any other questions just comment below and I'd be happy to help.
