What is Big Red Grease used for?

Big Red Grease is a lithium-based multipurpose grease built for heavy-duty automotive and industrial use. It holds up under high loads, resists water washout, and stays put in conditions where lighter greases break down. Common applications include:

  • Wheel bearings and hub assemblies
  • Trailer hitches and couplers
  • Chassis fittings
  • U-joints and driveshaft components
  • Fifth wheel plates and kingpins
  • General shop and equipment maintenance

What makes it different from standard grease?

Most shop greases work fine under light loads and dry conditions. Big Red is rated for high-temp, high-load, and wet environments where standard grease melts, washes out, or gets squeezed from the joint. The red color also makes it easy to see during inspection so you know coverage is solid.

How do you apply Big Red Grease?

Shake can well before and during use. Spray in a well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks or open flame. Spray uniformly on surface to be lubricated. After using Big Red, always clear the spray nozzle by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds until the valve and nozzle are clear.

Where can you buy Big Red Grease?

Big Red Grease #5004 ships directly from Well Worth Products. Volume pricing available for fleets and shops.

Frequently asked questions

Is Big Red Grease safe for wheel bearings?

Yes. It handles the heat and load cycles that bearing grease sees in normal use.

Can I use Big Red on a trailer hitch?

Yes. It is well suited for trailer hitches, couplers, and ball mounts. The water resistance keeps it from washing off in rain and road spray.

Will it wash off in the rain?

No. Lithium-based greases resist water washout. That is one of the main reasons to choose Big Red over a calcium or clay-based grease on exposed components.

How often should I re-grease with Big Red?

Follow the manufacturer interval for the component. For trailer wheel bearings, annually or every 12,000 miles is a common standard. For chassis fittings, every oil change.
