Synthetic Grease Better than Lucas Red-n-Tacky? Red Line vs Royal Purple. Let's see if either or both of these synthetic greases are better than Lucas Red-n-Tacky. Grease brands compared for film strength, water resistance, adhesion, ability to block corrosion, and cold temperature performance. I purchased both products and never accept sponsorships to ensure unbiased reviews. So, thanks for supporting the channel.

I replaced them with aftermarket bearings and used Lucas green grease. That lasted about 5 years. The next bearings I put in with factory grease from the bearing maker. Got about 6 months.

This may be irrelevant to the grease conversation but I have had experience with RP 100 wt. used in babbitt bearings where the oil was displaced with extremely hot water. It is not known how long the condition was present (less than 2 hrs max) but the pump was run at high rpms with no visible damage to the bearing. That would not have been the case with regular oil we had been using. Even displaced there remained a film of protection on the surface of the bearing. I am not discounting any other brand just anecdotal experience with Royal Purple 100 wt. oil.

Regarding the measurement of the wear scars on the bearings: It seems to me that the wear on the bearings is exponential as opposed to linear because the contacted area increases with increased wear.

Would love to see a gear/diff oil shootout like you did with motor oils. Really curious about Redline Shockproof oils. They claim to have the film strength of a very thick oil, yet the viscosity of a thin oil.

@cf7600 2 года назад

It has the aforementioned viscosity at specific high temp operations, but during colder operation the stuff is very thick, too thick. I use it, but cut it with a regular 80w90 diff fluid.

Great video! Maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear you compare these results to Lucas Red-N-Tacky. Do you feel that either of these outperformed the Lucas grease?

@chrisengle2315 2 года назад

Hey man I really really enjoy your content and I really enjoy the videos where you test different oils with the lubricity test, the cold flow test, and then you send them off to a lab and show us the ppm of the products.. but I notice you don't really have any videos doing that on different brands (super tech, oriley and autozone housebrands, valvoline etc.) and different types of transmission fluid (Mercon 4, Mercon 6, Type F, CVT Trans fluid, ect.) I would like to see this done with transmission fluid. And then at the end of it all you could do a competition like you had Amsoil vs Pennzoil in a showdown type of video. Love you content and Im a huge fan. Felt this was a good idea.

@Headbanger427 2 года назад

I've wanted to see the same with trans fluid.

@TA_Plus_Hemi 2 года назад

I'd have liked to see what the mixture could do. More hydrophobic and able to handle a bit higher temps, that sort of thing. No complaints though as you've been pumping out a lot of content lately.

@brethatch2244 2 года назад

I've found mixing greases and oils you don't gain the best of both worlds, but you do gain the worst of both worlds

@magicoddeffect 2 года назад

Both of these seem like fantastic products. Based on your testing, it seems like you get exactly what you pay for with grease, and cheap grease just isn't worth it unless it's an emergency!

@FishFind3000 2 года назад

Can you test the same brand grease like shaeffers but with a moly and non moly grease that are as identical as possible to show the benefits of moly in grease for wear?

@ProjectFarm 2 года назад

I'll do it if there's enough interest. Thanks for the suggestion!

@FishFind3000 2 года назад

@@ProjectFarm one thing I noticed between the two greases tested in this video is redline had red moly added where royal purple didn’t have any so that may have been a contributing factory to the difference in the wear scar.

@TimmyJoePCTech 2 года назад

@@JM-yx1lm so should I have to go back and watch the previous video write down the results in a piece of paper and then compare them to the results of this new one

@libtrs838 2 года назад

@@JM-yx1lm The title says "Synthetic grease better? Red-n-Tacky better?" You would expect the video to compare to red n tacky instead of just referring to a video he made 2 years ago. In the end, he doesn't say how they compared to his old test either. The only thing to do would be to watch the old video from 2 years ago and write down all the results. But the old red n tacky test isn't even directly comparable because multiple things in the testing have changed. So even if you did write the numbers down it would not be accurate. It is a misleading title.

I don't think I've ever seen you test RTV (liquid gasket makers) against each other like this. And I've seen it get used in many strange ways. To include adding a shock absorber like layer to a plate, as a oil resistant glue (no bolts, though what we where holding up was light and if it did fall it wasn't going to hurt anything but the thing bring held up.) And as a Farmers fix to a flat tire (need some tin screw\self drilling screws, although I've known a wood screw to be used a time or two)

I use these videos as a buyers guide. Been watching them for years. Has there ever been a video on octane boosters? Like do they do anything? are they necessary ? Do they clean combustion chambers? Or add horse power/gas mileage? I think this channel is the most objective and I appreciate that. Thank you for your hard work!

@ProjectFarm 2 года назад

You are welcome! Thanks for the video idea.

@Headbanger427 2 года назад

Not sure about adding power but in boosters the advertising is decieving. It takes 10 octane POINTS to make 1 octane NUMBER. 93 octane + a 5 point booster makes 93.5 octane.

This test series validates my decision to have our mower shop switch over to Red Line for unsealed mower spindle bearings. Though the water test would lean towards using Royal Purple for marine applications. As always, your content is not only well thought out and diligently executed; but useful as well.
