Default Search is hosed: High temp front wheel bearing grease for track?
I'd like to put high temp grease in the front wheel bearings to mitigate breakdown from brake heat transfer.

Any preferred products and target heat ranges? My local parts start is some lubrimoly product rated to a 520 drop point. I see Redline has CV-2 synthetic.

Any suggestions from you racers?

Cheers!

Jeff
