Recommended Bearing Grease for Dexter EZ-Lube Axle

Question:

My camper has two such axles. You recommend Lubrimatic grease on the website, but in the operation/service manual this grease is not on the approved list. Im sure the makeup is the same or similar to the recommended brands, but I dont want to get into a conflict should I ever have a warrantee or safety issue while on the road. Any suggestions?

In regards to grease compatibility brand is not really relevant but rather the base of the grease. The majority of hub/bearing greases will have a petroleum/polyurea-base so the Prime Guard Wheel Bearing Hi-Temp Red Grease part # L11380 for the can or part # L11465 for the tube will be just fine. There can be issues with mixing two different kinds of grease but this is not really as common of an issue as you might think because again most trailer bearings greases will have a petroleum/polyurea-base.
