We have just what you need. The LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease 3 Pack part # L54FR is a 3 pack of 3 oz grease cartridges that will work great in your trailer hub and will also fit your grease gun. This grease is made from calcium sulfonate complex which is a water insoluble formula ideal for marine applications but still works really great in all trailer hub applications.
