Technical FAQ

Can I use any marine grease instead of this OEM product?
Volvo Penta specifies this grease for use on their components. Using a non-OEM grease may be acceptable in some applications, but compatibility with seals, materials, and operating conditions should be confirmed against the Volvo Penta service manual before substituting.

Is this grease suitable for underwater or submerged components?
This grease is formulated for marine environments and water-resistant use. For submerged components such as propeller shaft seals or underwater hardware, confirm the correct grease specification in the Volvo Penta service manual for your specific application.

How much grease do I need for a gimbal bearing service?
Refer to the Volvo Penta service manual for your specific sterndrive model for the correct quantity. Over-greasing can be as problematic as under-greasing on sealed components.

Parts Desk Insights

Marine grease is one of those consumables that gets overlooked until something seizes or corrodes. Gimbal bearings and U-joints on Volvo Penta sterndrives are particularly vulnerable they run in a wet environment and are often under-greased during annual service. Using the correct OEM-specified grease matters here because the wrong product can degrade seals or wash out faster in saltwater. If youre doing sterndrive service, budget a tube of grease into the job its inexpensive insurance against a much more costly bearing replacement.
