Product Information
Full details
Carlube Aqua Slip is an essential lubricant for boat owners and marine mechanics seeking to protect equipment from the harsh, corrosive effects of saltwater and constant moisture exposure. This high-performance Calcium No.2 grease excels at preventing water wash-off and extending the life of moving parts such as trailer wheel bearings and winches, though it is specifically optimized for marine applications rather than high-temperature automotive disc brake environments.

FAQs
Can I use this on my car's brake calipers?
No. This grease is formulated for marine use and lacks the extreme high-temperature ratings required for automotive disc brake systems.
Is this grease safe for use in freshwater environments?
Yes. While designed for marine salt environments, it provides excellent protection against all forms of water exposure in freshwater as well.
Does it need to be reapplied after every trip?
Generally, no. However, for submerged parts like trailer bearings, inspect the grease condition periodically and reapply if signs of emulsification or grit are present.
Is this a lithium-based grease?
No, this is a Calcium No.2 grease, which is chosen for its superior water resistance compared to standard lithium multipurpose greases.
How should I dispose of the empty container?
Dispose of the container and any waste grease according to your local hazardous waste and recycling regulations.
Troubleshooting
Grease is difficult to pump
Ensure the grease gun is primed correctly and that the cartridge is properly seated in the barrel.
Component is still stiff after greasing
Check for mechanical debris or pre-existing rust damage that may require physical repair or part replacement.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent resistance to saltwater washout
- High-load bearing capacity with EP ratings

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve optimal performance, thoroughly clean the component of old, contaminated grease before applying Aqua Slip. Use a lint-free cloth or solvent to ensure the surface is dry and free of debris. When packing wheel bearings, ensure an even distribution to eliminate air pockets. This grease is compatible with most standard Calcium-based lubricants but should not be mixed with incompatible thickeners like clay-based greases without prior purging. Store the container in a cool, dry area with the lid tightly sealed to prevent moisture contamination of the remaining product.
