Mcglaughlin Oil Petrol-Gel Lubricant,White

I was looking for a food grade lubricant for the gears of my meat slicer & this works fine

When changing your water filters you will be needing this for the o-rings to keep the threads and rubber rings sealed but dont want to use petroleum jelly. The sanitary nature of this food grade product means you will not add any contaminants to your water supply. Also works on valves and unions to lube the sealing rings.

Bought this for a two-wheel on a aquarium filter. Used it for the pegs, as it is waterproof. Seems to help with the spinning for sure. Needs semi weekly applications. Not sure if it is getting in my tank yet tho.

Im a bit hesitant to give this product only 2 stars because it may well be a good product for other uses, but if you are buying this grease as an inexpensive replacement for the very expensive Saeco Silicone Grease, I cannot recommend it based on my experience. Here is my experience with this grease: When I started to use this grease instead of the Saeco Silicone Grease (I was down one small tube), the brewer performance was poor as compared to the original Saeco Silicone Grease. With this non-silicone petroleum grease, the coffee came out watery and coffee waste bin contained a watery sludge instead of dry pucks. Now this type of behavior could be caused a bad brew-group O-ring, but in my case, I did experiments switching between the Saeco Silicone grease and the Petrol grease and the correlation was 100%: With silicone grease: dry pucks, no watery coffee. With Petrol grease: sludge coffee waste and watery coffee. Again, this product may be perfect for other uses and so the 2 stars may not be deserved, but if you want to use this for a Saeco or probably for other makes of automatic expresso makers, I would recommend, instead, a silicone based, food-rated grease like the Haynes Silicone Grease, which comes in a large 4 Oz tube!

Great

Do not use it for your coffeemaker

It works for my application which is my freezer door sliding rails. For that alone it was a superb value.

Its not easy to find this stuff at a reasonable price on the Internet. If you want to buy this in large containers it is cheaper, but this stuff goes a long way when applied. I use it on a meat slicer and it doesnt take much. Im guessing it wall last a couple of years. Based upon the manufacture specs, this stuff seems the safest and most effective for food use. When it runs out, Ill get more of it.

Food grade lube is a must for coffee machines or other kitchen equipment that have gears. Good price and right size quantity for household use.

The 4oz bottle is very reasonably priced. I’ve been using it on my Saeco espresso machine brew unit without any issues. The lubricant withstands multiple washes and I do not need to reapply every time I clean the machine. Very satisfied with this product.
