Corn head grease where the heck do you find it???

old · Jun 12, 2012

Ok so a lot of you guys talk about the stuff. So where do you find it and does it go by different names??? I have called all the local places and no one has a clue as to what it is and or where to find it. Hard for me to recommend the stuff to a person if I can not tell him where to find the stuff. Case in point a guy has a leaking seal on a TO30 Ferguson so I said use corn head grease but then found out in this area it is like finding hens teeth

Our local John Deere dealer has it ,comes in tubes I use it in steering boxes that tend to leak hope this helps. GP

My grandpa use to make it himself. He would mix desiel fuel with regular grease and use it on cornhead.

I wondered the same thing ever since I got on here and then I discovered this spring that our local John Deere dealer sells it and it says CORN HEAD GREASE right on the tube. It is very nice, I needed it for a leaky gear box on our backup bush hog which I needed to use this spring. Very easy to pump out of the grease gun too, since it is so thin.

EP is similar- called for in NI discbine gearboxes. Maybe EP-3? been a decade since I bought it. Corn head grease is sold by dealers who sell corn heads, for combines, JD being the most popular. It"s thicker than oil, not as thick as gun grease.

I get it at the local Co-Op and do you know what they call it? Yep, cornhead grease.

JD dealers and MF dealers both have it. Other dealers likely have it as well.

we used to use crater o grease on leaking gear boxes like real thick gear oil

Corn head grease is also great for power tool gearboxes. It takes little or no heat to get it soft enough to flow back unto the gears. JD corn head grease is an excellent quality polyurea grease.

Corn Head grease is EP #Zero
Poke here for one brand

DoubleR · Jun 12, 2012

My Case-IH dealer has it. $5.75 per tube. He says its the same thing the JD dealer sells a few miles from him. I put it in my JD grinder-mixer gear box.

Poke here for Shell Alvania

Hey Old
Your local NAPA store has "gear box grease" that is the same thing, expensive though. I used it in the steering sector on my 550 Oliver.

That one is real easy!

You will find a few tubes in the shop of every knucklebuster that has never changed an oil seal in his life.

Not all Oil Jobbers have it, but double 00 grease will flow but not leak.

36 Coupe · Jun 13, 2012

Many grease cartridges have a soft grease that would work.I used to buy cup grease in 2 pound cans that was near liquid.

George Rausch · Jun 13, 2012

I never could figure that out either, so I whipped up my own, a 50-50 mix of red wheel bearing grease and 90-wt. , whipped up with a coat hanger in my drill. Poured into my Farmall H steering box, doesn't leak anymore, flows great. stays in p lace.

ASEguy · Jun 13, 2012

Like Walt said, you can get it at John Deere dealers. I put some in my 8N steering gearbox. It seems very close to regular grease only not as thick. Gerard

Local Ag Power (Deere) dealership.
