[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 118761, member: 13825"] for the most part as far as I know almost all basic equipment uses NGLI-2 spec grease, the big part of grease IMO, is just making sure your using grease that is what your OEM calls for and for the operating temps and conditions, as NOT all same type/spec grease flows as well in hot and cold condition or in wet conditions! so using what works better in your conditions yet meets your OEM spec's ! and then greasing often enough, to do things the good grease does! and not mixing them all together, as not all grease even of the same spec's is compatible to be mixed, if switching over, I always try and clean out best I can and pump a little extra thru and grease a few times more often than needed to sort of flush the system/ use one and stick with one the grease I been using for many yrs now on most of my equipment and things, has been Schaffer’s 274 NLG I#2 grease , its not the cheapest or easiest to find, but I buy in bulk due to I like you wanted to use just one grease on as many things as I could using a cordless grease gun! (I also highly recommend the LOCK AND LUBE grease fitting for grease guns too) as I it use on most things, and it seems to work very well for me in both hot and cold condition, (pumps easy in the cold) too) and it has been recommended to me by a lot of folks in the construction/ farming game, that have had great luck with it as well! I always keep a few grease guns about, with more special grease for certain things, like HI speed wheel bearings on trailers and such, and low temp grease for things that work mostly ONLY in the cold! just no real getting away from having the need for more than one grease or grease gun, but you can surely use one grease in a majority of things so Schaffer’s # 274 grease gets my vote here if wanting a brand model recommendation!
