CV Joint Grease StaLube SL3174 4 oz Lithium Molybdenum

Description

Product Overview

Sta-Lube SL3174 CV Joint Grease is engineered for the most demanding constant velocity (CV) joint applications. The formulation combines a high‑quality lithium base with molybdenum disulfide particles, delivering a thick, stable film that resists shear under extreme load conditions. With a flash point of 235 °C and a viscosity of 68 (base oil), the grease maintains its protective qualities across a wide temperature range, from cold‑weather starts to hot‑road operation. Packaged in a convenient 4 oz (0.12 L) tube, the product meets the specifications of both domestic and imported CV joints, offering a reliable solution for new installations, routine maintenance, and emergency repairs. The tube dimensions of 4 × 1.5 × 9.25 inches make it easy to handle, store, and dispense, while the lightweight design (0.01 oz per tube) reduces shipping costs without compromising performance.

Usage

Designed for automotive technicians, DIY enthusiasts, and fleet maintenance teams, this grease excels in a variety of real‑world scenarios. It is ideal for lubricating the inner and outer CV joint bearings during vehicle assembly, as well as for re‑greasing joints during routine service intervals. The formulation’s low‑temperature fluidity ensures quick penetration into tight bearing spaces, while the high‑temperature stability prevents breakdown during prolonged highway driving. Whether you are working on passenger cars, light trucks, or performance vehicles, the grease’s compatibility with both OEM and aftermarket CV joint designs guarantees a seamless fit. It also performs well in harsh environments, such as dusty off‑road conditions or high‑humidity climates, where contaminants can challenge less robust lubricants.

FAQ

What makes this grease suitable for both domestic and import CV joints?

The formulation’s base oil and additive package are selected to meet the dimensional tolerances and material compatibilities of a wide range of CV joint manufacturers. This universal approach eliminates the need for separate greases for different vehicle origins.

Can I use this grease for other automotive applications?

Yes. While it is optimized for CV joints, the grease’s high load capacity and temperature stability also make it suitable for wheel bearings, universal joints, and other moving parts that require robust lubrication.

How often should I re‑apply the grease on a CV joint?

For most passenger vehicles, re‑greasing at every major service interval (typically every 30,000–45,000 km) is sufficient. High‑performance or off‑road vehicles may benefit from more frequent maintenance, especially after exposure to extreme conditions.

Is the grease safe for use with seals and rubber components?

Sta‑Lube SL3174 is formulated to be compatible with common automotive seal materials, including nitrile and fluorocarbon elastomers, reducing the risk of seal degradation over time.

What warranty does Sta‑Lube provide for this product?

Sta‑Lube offers a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects and guarantees performance when used as directed. Customers can contact the technical support team for assistance and claim processing.
