What are you all using?

Mazdatrix says neo z-12
Neo has hp800 and I see redline cv2 as a popular choice.

I came across this stuff called daylube, sounds interesting but there is very little published info.

 

Marine grease.

 

Have used Amsoil racing grease, Mobil One, Lucas X-TRA Heavy Duty and Lucas Red 'N' Tacky. They all worked well. The trick is to repack every time you change pads and keep the hubs/bearings cool. That and use one of these....makes life so easy

 

Redline has worked great for me.. and the bearing packer makes is a breeze.

 

i've used the CV-2 for years, and it has been fine.

we used to endurance race a honda, and if we didn't repack all the bearings and CV joints, they would only last like ~5 hours, if we did we could get like 23 hours out of it.

 

Thanks for the responses. I bought a tub of neo hp800. Expensive stuff, ill try cv2 next much more affordable.

 

That's what i use. Have not torn down the bearings to see if there's any real advantage.

From the manufacturer...

Exceptionally resistant to water wash out including
emulsions, NEO HP800 was designed specifically for precision rolling
element bearings in high performance racing cars. This grease is
slightly thinner in consistency and has a higher viscosity synthetic
fluid incorporated in its design as compared t greases normally used
for passenger vehicles and is designed to lubricate to 425°C (800°F).
NEO HP800 is designed for the peripheral speeds encountered by
wheel bearings in racing which are 3 to 6 times that of passenger
cars and prevent "channeling of the grease" under these conditions
which requires a lighter consistency product. Due to the excessive
heat generated by over-sized disk brakes, the fluid constituent of
the grease is synthetic and of a higher viscosity so as to provide the
proper oil viscosity at operating temperature, thereby preventing
thin film rupture, and excessive wear. Special additive technology &
synthetic fluids give high film strength under EP conditions with
exceptional oxidative & thermal stability.

Neo used to post product sheets. I attached one i downloaded a while ago. Not sure it's it's still valid tho

 

Thanks for that. It's weird how they are setup and share info. It's split between 2 or 3 sights, I assume they don't care about a web presence.

 

neo is one of the best . used in F1 !

 

Packed with neo today. At 60f outside the neo is quite firm and the stickiest grease I've ever encountered.

 

Mobil SHC100......if its good enough for wheel bearings on an F-15
