Seacock Grease

David Gerhardt All Messages By This Member #103174 Before I purchase a tube of seacock grease I thought I would check with the forum on the possibility of using a tube of NLGI Grade 2 Lithium grease that I have hanging around. This is a medium density non-hydrocarbon grease. I also have a tube of Lewmar Geargrease made with Calcium Sulphonate. Thoughts? Thanks, Dave G Serenade 1983 S-34-1 #184 NB, Canada
David Castor All Messages By This Member #103175 I'm not an expert, but if you have the original Spartan bronze seacocks, I will say that the Spartan grease is quite thick - thicker than any other grease I have used.?

I just did all of the Seacocks on my boat, and I used the Spartan grease. ?I read this article () and everything in it made sense to me. ?I will say I have used every kind of grease there is over the years, and there is definitely something different about the Spartan grease, and I am very glad I used it. ? ? -- Tim Dokken 1985 Sabre 32 #59 Bayfield, WI
David Gerhardt All Messages By This Member #103178 开云体育 Unfortunately, ordering on the Spartan website does not accommodate Canadian shipping addresses and there seems to be no Canadian retailer for Spartan Seacock Grease that I can find. ?I can purchase ‘Seacock Grease’ from ‘The Binnacle’ in Halifax, NS (awesome retailer!!) but I am firstly wondering about the potential application of the products that I had mentioned.
