Lewmar Gear Grease - 3.50z

Keep your marine hardware running smoothly even in the harshest saltwater environments with Lewmar Gear Grease. This high-performance lubricant is specially formulated to protect gears and moving parts from wear, corrosion, and friction, ensuring reliable operation season after season.

Why Choose Lewmar Gear Grease for Your Boat?

Unlike standard greases that wash away with the first wave, Lewmar Gear Grease clings tenaciously to metal surfaces, providing long-lasting protection. Its calcium sulfonate base delivers exceptional water resistance, high load-bearing capacity, and superior adhesion—ideal for the demanding conditions of sailing and boating. Whether you're prepping for a coastal cruise or an offshore adventure, this grease helps prevent seizing and extends the life of your equipment.

Key Applications on Board

• Winches: Reduces pawl friction and pawl spring drag, improving pawl engagement for safer, smoother cranking under load.
• Blocks and Sheaves: Minimizes wear on bearings and minimizes noise during operation.
• Windlasses and Deck Gear: Shields against rust and grit buildup in chain wheels and gypsies.
• Thrusters and Steering Systems: Supports heavy-duty components exposed to constant moisture.

Proven Performance in Real-World Conditions

Sailors and boaters trust Lewmar Gear Grease because it goes beyond basic lubrication. It enhances the mechanical efficiency of your rigging by filling microscopic voids in metal surfaces, creating a robust barrier against saltwater intrusion and abrasive particles. Regular application during routine servicing can cut maintenance downtime and keep your yacht or dinghy ready for action.

Expert Tips for Optimal Results

• Clean surfaces thoroughly before applying to remove old grease and contaminants.
• Apply a thin, even layer—less is more to avoid attracting dirt.
• Reapply after every 6-12 months of use, or more frequently in high-exposure areas.
• Pair with Lewmar's service kits for comprehensive winch overhauls.

The Science Behind the Stickiness

Calcium sulfonate complexes in this formula offer unmatched shear stability and extreme pressure resistance. This means it stays put under the torque of a loaded winch pawl or the constant motion of a bow thruster, outperforming lithium-based alternatives in wet environments. It's not just grease; it's your first line of defense against costly repairs.

Equip your vessel with the lubrication it deserves. Lewmar Gear Grease turns maintenance into prevention, so you spend more time on the water and less in the workshop.
