Question:

I am looking for your opinion on the best wheel bearing grease for my 5th wheel trailer wheel bearings. I was thinking of Sta-lube Sta-plex SL3190, or Lubrimatic L11390 red grease, lithium base. I would appreciate your opinion. What ever I go with, it would be nice to get it, in both a cartridge, and a can.

Helpful Expert Reply:

The highest quality grease we carry for wheel bearing is the LMX red grease like the part # L11390 that you referenced.

LMX Red is heavy-duty, premium grease for the toughest lubricating jobs on the biggest, heaviest equipment. It performs better under higher pressures and temperatures than standard multi-purpose grease, and it resists water better. Because it resists water and sticks in place well, this grease will work on external parts that are exposed to the weather. It provides premium protection for car, truck and trailer wheel bearings (especially trailers that are heavily loaded), U-joints, farm equipment, and industrial machinery.
