Grease equivalent

Somewhat O/T but it washes tractor related clothes

I'm doing the bearings in washing machine, which obviously doesn't need a lot.

The grease used is Shell Stamina RL 2 which now seems to be Gadus S3 T
100 2, which is no longer available from Simpson.

Any suggestions?

Or do I just use a moly grease from the tractor rack?
 
Looking at the specs, the Shell Gadus is used for wet locations, as in a washing machine that they assume will eventually get water where it's not supposed to be.

I doubt that you want to buy a whole case, if you can find it.

I would substitute the grease designed for boat trailer bearings. Get it at the auto supply, really sticky stuff, stays put, and obviously water resistant.
 
I was going to post the same. Some is green and some is a pretty blue color. Boat transom grease?
 
I was thinking about the white Lubriplate marine wheel bearing grease. Really stringy and tacky, near impossible to wipe off.

And there are marine grade greases, used for stern drives, wet, corrosive locations. It might be a little thick though. But would probably work!
 
That white grease I never thought much of for anything but to oil chains or build a fire. I had a guy that thought it was good stuff for wheel bearings on trailers. I changed more wheel bearings with that in there.
For washing machine just use gun grease. Though most of it is not water resistant.
 
Thanks for the replies

Grease for boat wheel bearings might be a possibility of obtaining locally

Otherwise it is the tractor grease
