I have used a red Millers Deltaplex 2 EP for many years and got 40k out of my first set of kingpins. Reading up a bit more on this it appears that high temperature is also a factor in encouraging the sulphur content of EP greases to attack bronze. So I think king pins are fairly safe in that respect.

I use Link and Pin grease, sold for the link pins on earth movers and agricultural equipment.

About 3 quid a cartridge when I last bought some at my local farm supplies place

Blue paper to remove the excess and into the burn barrel out the back

I think Craig in reality any good grease works so it should be fine. I must admit Class have a depot on the A14 north or Bury and their agricultural grease I noted was very well priced.

I also suspect most of us over grease i.e. at shorter intervals than the MMC 1000 miles.

I’ve gone down the “red and tacky “ route at 500 mile intervals. It’s probably completely OTT but I’m happy and it’s gives me the opportunity to make sure nothings falling off. grin2
