Anyone Use Green Grease?
We always recommend the Super Lube grease, it is heavy and thick.
We had a few Roto-Joints come back because of warranty issues/repairs and the ones that used the Super Lube grease were in considerable better condition than ones with red and brown grease.
marine grease is generally a calcium sulfonate soap type, as opposed to lithium complex which is what all wheel bearing and chasis greases are.
polyurea grease is also green, usually a lighter green.
I know Lucas sells a grease which is polyurea, what make or brand of grease did you buy, and from where? look for "soap type" or "base type" printed on the tube.
for the roto-joint being what it is, it's not the soap type of the grease that will matter as much as the solids in the grease such as moly or ptfe which is what's doing much of the protecting, you want a grease with some kind of ep (extreme-pressure) protection. I also wouldn't get a thick or hard grease because it's not going to flow and distribute in the roto-joint, this would include the lucas light green polyurea grease. I would guess the superlube does so well because it has a very buttery texture and is very smooth so it's getting distributed throughout the rotojoint and getting between all the contact points.
