Key Features
- High Performance Lubrication — This grease delivers excellent lubrication properties specifically formulated for the demanding mechanical environments found in RC cars and trucks, ensuring smooth operation across all bearing surfaces and moving components.
- Minimises Metal Parts Deterioration — The advanced formulation actively protects metal-on-metal contact surfaces, preventing wear and extending the service life of critical differential joints, drive shafts, and gear assemblies that would otherwise deteriorate rapidly under racing conditions.
- Reduces Bearing Drag — The special slippery formula significantly reduces friction in bearing components, which translates directly to smoother operation, improved efficiency, and better overall vehicle performance during competitive runs and casual driving sessions.
- Water Resistance — This grease is engineered to resist water penetration, providing essential protection for RC vehicles used in wet conditions, muddy terrain, or after water crossings without losing its protective properties.
- Corrosion Inhibition — The advanced chemistry actively inhibits corrosion on ferrous and non-ferrous metal surfaces, protecting your RC car's internal components from rust and oxidation that can compromise mechanical integrity over time.
- Shock O-Ring Protection — The formulation provides exceptional protection for shock absorber O-rings even under extreme conditions, preventing degradation and maintaining seal integrity during high-impact driving and aggressive suspension articulation.
- Convenient 5G Container — The 5-gram pot provides the perfect quantity for multiple applications whilst remaining compact and portable, making it ideal for carrying to the track, the bash spot, or for routine maintenance at home.
Technical Performance
Sweep Green Grease represents the pinnacle of specialist RC lubrication technology, engineered to meet the exacting demands of modern RC vehicles operating across all scales and disciplines. The formulation has been rigorously tested to perform reliably across the temperature ranges and mechanical stresses encountered in both competitive racing and recreational bashing scenarios. The grease's chemical composition delivers optimal viscosity for metal-on-metal lubrication whilst maintaining its protective film under high centrifugal forces generated during high-speed operation. Users can expect consistent performance across differential assemblies, where the grease must withstand both rotational forces and the intense pressures generated during acceleration and cornering. The water-resistant properties ensure the grease maintains its protective film even when RC vehicles are subjected to wet conditions, water crossings, or muddy terrain typical of UK off-road locations. The formulation's ability to protect shock O-rings under extreme conditions makes it invaluable for RC vehicles with sophisticated suspension systems that generate significant forces during jumps, landings, and aggressive trail driving. Whether applied to drive shaft splines, crown and pinion gear meshes, or differential spider gears, this grease provides reliable, long-lasting protection that serious RC hobbyists depend upon for maintaining peak vehicle performance throughout the racing season.
Typical Applications
- Differential joints — protects spider gears and differential carriers from wear
- Drive shafts — lubricates splines and universal joints for smooth power delivery
- Crown and pinion gears — maintains optimal mesh whilst reducing friction and heat generation
- Metal-on-metal components — provides general lubrication for any friction points requiring protection
- Shock absorber mechanisms — protects O-rings and internal components under extreme suspension articulation
- Bearing surfaces — reduces drag and friction for improved efficiency

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Sweep Green Grease used for on RC cars? — This high-performance grease is designed to lubricate and protect critical metal-on-metal components found throughout your RC vehicle. It's particularly valuable for differential joints, drive shafts, crown and pinion gears, and shock absorber O-rings. The formulation reduces bearing drag, resists water contamination, inhibits corrosion, and protects components even under extreme driving conditions, making it essential for competitive racers and serious RC enthusiasts who demand maximum protection for their vehicles.
- Is this grease suitable for all types of RC vehicles? — Yes, Sweep Green Grease is formulated to work with all scales and types of RC vehicles. Whether you run 1/10 scale buggies, 1/8 scale trucks, monster trucks, short course vehicles, or any other RC car configuration, this grease provides the specialist lubrication and protection needed for optimal performance. The 5g container provides sufficient quantity for multiple maintenance applications.
- Does this grease work in wet conditions? — Absolutely. One of the key advantages of Sweep Green Grease is its water resistance. The formulation actively resists water penetration, making it an ideal choice for RC vehicles used in muddy terrain, wet grass, water crossings, or during wet weather conditions. This water resistance helps maintain the protective film on your components even after exposure to moisture.
- How often should I apply this grease to my RC car? — Maintenance intervals depend on your driving intensity and conditions. Competitive racers typically re-grease differentials and drive components after every few races or when performing regular maintenance. Casual bashers might do this monthly or as needed when they notice increased friction or grinding sounds. Always check your RC vehicle manufacturer's maintenance guidelines for specific recommendations.
- Will this grease help reduce corrosion on my RC car? — Yes, this is one of the formulation's key features. Sweep Green Grease actively inhibits corrosion on metal surfaces, providing essential protection for RC vehicles exposed to moisture, salt air, or humid conditions. The corrosion-inhibiting properties help extend component life and maintain your investment's value over time.
- Can I use this on shock O-rings? — Yes, the formulation specifically includes shock O-ring protection even under extreme conditions. This makes it ideal for maintaining shock absorber seals and preventing degradation that can lead to oil leakage and reduced suspension performance.
