SD Grease- Moly Fortified

Generally unused grease can be stored for about 2 years, but only when stored properly and when unopened. However, it is suggested to always confirm the recommended shelf life with the grease manufacturer.

Grease tubes should be stored vertically with the cap facing up. This helps prevent leaks when separation occurs in the grease. Grease tubes should also be stored in a cool, clean, dry area and out of direct sunlight.

Separation or bleeding is when grease releases oil while being stored or while being worked. In storage conditions, separation can be identified by small pools of oil.

A little separation is normal. However, if you begin to notice excessive separation, it can be an indication that your grease has exceeded it’s shelf life.

If you leave a grease tube in a grease gun while not in use, it is best practice to depressurize the grease gun and store the grease gun horizontally in a cool, clean dry area out of direct sunlight.
