Mcglaughlin Oil Petrol-Gel Lubricant,White

I bought this sanitary lubricant for relubricating my new slicer after cleaning and reassembly. 4 ounces doesnt sound like a lot, and the tube doesnt look that big in the photo. Rest assured, its HUGE; a lifetime supply for home users! The tube is fully 6 long, not counting the cap. This is a food-grade grease thats USDA-approved for incidental food contact. Its clear white, odorless, and about the consistency of Vaseline, maybe a little softer. Its clean, non-staining, and stable in long-term storage, unlike vegetable, olive or tropical oils that soon turn rancid. Ive found it also works well in our Kitchen Aid stand mixers and the O-rings in marinade injectors.

As the title states I used this to grease a pasta machine that was cacked in old dough. Disassembled the entire machine, cleaned all gears and reassembled using this lubricant. Should last for another 20 years

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!

Used it to lubricate a pressure regulator assembly for a nitro cold brew keg. Works great, and a little goes a long way with this grease. Going to last me a very long time.

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

it worked great for drive gears on the meat slicer were it may come in contact with blade and food...

If your kitchen appliance has interior moving parts, like my Phillips Saeco Espresso Machine, you may need to lubricate it periodically. This get is food grade and does the job. There are no instructions with this: look to your appliance documentation for this. I think it may also be a good lubricant for exterior fittings, like the slip on paddle for my mixer that has gotten sticky. A toothpick of wooden skewer is handy to get the get into tight places.

Disliked the fact the tube was pretty well beat up, but no leaks. Probably was damaged somewhere along the chain from manufacturer to Seller. Glad though its intact and I have some lube for my electric meat slicer gears.

Could have been packaged with a little more protection. A little lubricant sqeezed out of the tube. We use it for the German made Chefs meat, cheese slicer. There is no better slicer out there and we want to protect the gears with the proper lubricant. I am pleased with the product!

for my purpose this is overkill. I use 2 or 3 fingertips of this grease and I probably wont use any more for another year. It would be nice to be able to get a smaller tube but when they do that they charge you the same. They tell you to use this but my friends tell me that they use vegetable oil and it works fine. If you are going to use this all the time it might be worth it but for me it was a waste of money. I gave it five stars because it does what it needs to do and does it well.
