Key Features
- Extreme High-Pressure Performance — This grease withstands extremely high pressures without losing its lubricity, meaning it maintains its protective properties even under the intense loads generated by acceleration, cornering and hard driving in competitive racing environments.
- Compatible with 1/8 and 1/10 Scale Vehicles — Whether you run on-road or off-road RC cars at 1/8 scale or 1/10 scale, this grease is formulated to perform across the full range of Team Losi Racing vehicles and other compatible RC platforms.
- Sticky Formulation Stays Where Applied — The tacky nature of this grease means it stays precisely where you apply it, reducing mess and waste while ensuring consistent lubrication over multiple runs without requiring constant reapplication.
- Thrust Bearing Smooth Operation — Specifically designed to keep thrust bearings running smoother for longer, this grease reduces friction and heat generation, which directly extends bearing life and improves overall vehicle responsiveness.
- Ring and Pinion Gear Protection — The high-pressure formulation adds a level of protective film to ring and pinion gears, crucial components that experience intense stress and require robust lubrication to prevent premature wear.
- Gearbox Sealing Capability — This grease is excellent for sealing 8IGHT gearboxes and other transmission housings to their chassis, creating a tight seal that prevents dirt ingress and maintains optimal performance conditions inside the gearbox.
- Convenient 8cc Tube with Screw Cap — The 8cc tube format with secure screw-on cap keeps the product contained and organised in your toolbox, preventing mess and contamination while providing easy access for precise application.
- Professional-Grade Formulation — Trusted by competitive RC racers and professional teams, this grease is engineered to the highest standards to deliver the protection and performance that demands of competitive racing require.
Technical Performance
The Team Losi Racing High-Pressure Black Grease represents the culmination of years of research and development specifically targeting the unique lubrication challenges faced by modern RC vehicles. The formulation is engineered to perform reliably across the temperature extremes encountered during intense RC racing—from cold morning practice sessions to the heat generated by continuous high-speed running. The black colour indicates a heavy-duty formulation designed for maximum film strength and pressure handling. The grease maintains exceptional stability under shock loads, ensuring that sudden accelerations, hard cornering, and aggressive off-road impacts do not cause the grease to break down or separate from critical components. The viscosity and consistency have been carefully calibrated to provide optimal protection for precision bearings whilst also creating effective seals in gearbox housings. Whether you're protecting the delicate thrust bearings that handle vertical loads in your chassis, lubricating the ring and pinion gears that transmit power from motor to wheels, or sealing the complex gear trains inside an 8IGHT transmission, this grease delivers professional-grade performance that keeps your RC car UK setup running at peak efficiency lap after lap, session after session.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is high-pressure grease used for in RC cars? — High-pressure grease is specifically formulated to protect components that experience intense loads and stresses, particularly thrust bearings, ring and pinion gears, and transmission housings. In RC vehicles, these components face extreme pressures from acceleration, cornering forces, and impact. This grease maintains its protective film even under these severe conditions, reducing friction and wear whilst extending component life significantly.
- Is this suitable for both on-road and off-road RC vehicles? — Yes, this grease is compatible with both 1/8 and 1/10 on-road and off-road vehicles. Whether you run a precision on-road racing car or a rugged off-road buggy, the high-pressure formulation handles the demands of both applications effectively.
- Can this grease be used for sealing gearboxes? — Absolutely. One of the primary applications for this grease is sealing 8IGHT gearboxes and other transmission housings to their chassis. The tacky formulation creates an effective seal that prevents dirt and debris from entering the gearbox whilst keeping the internal gears properly lubricated.
- How much grease do I need to apply? — The 8cc tube format provides plenty of product for extended use. Apply sparingly to avoid excess product attracting dirt. A small amount on thrust bearings and a thin coating on ring and pinion gears is typically sufficient. The sticky nature of the grease means it stays where applied, so you do not need to reapply frequently.
- Will this grease work in hot weather racing conditions? — Yes, this grease is specifically engineered to withstand temperature extremes encountered during intense RC racing, including the significant heat generated by continuous high-speed running and competition-level driving in summer conditions.
- Is this the same as shock oil or differential fluid? — No, this is a grease product, not a fluid. Whilst shock oils and differential fluids are thin, pourable liquids used in specific vehicle systems, high-pressure grease is a thick, tacky compound designed for bearing and gear protection. The three products serve entirely different purposes and should not be confused.
- How often should I reapply this grease? — Due to the sticky formulation that stays where applied, you typically only need to reapply after several running sessions or when you notice reduced performance. Regular inspection during maintenance will indicate when additional grease is needed.
