<HTML><BODY><p style="margin-top: 0px;" dir="ltr">A while back I found it at Tractor supply in quart squeeze bottles. It is sold for use in rotary mower gear boxes. I use it for lubing rollers on Cat tractors so I bought several quarts. I think it was $5-6 per quart. I remember when we used to get a five gallon pail for about $35. It is hard to find now and has to be special order and is north of $150 so it is a good price.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The problem is the new Tractor supply that opened up near me does not have it.</p>

<div>Yes! Grease comes in a wide range of viscosities, running from 000 to
6. Typical grease that we commonly use is right in the middle at #2.
Deere recommends a 0 grease for their corn heads. Thus it is usually
labeled as corn head grease. 00 grease is used for cotton picker spindles
and is usually labeled that way. I couldn’t find a viscosity listed on the
page Jason pointed at. But the list of uses suggests it is 0.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The differences in viscosity are pretty well explained on this site:</div>

<div>There is a lot more to classifying grease than how thick it is. This
Amsoil page touches on the other classifications:</div>

Deere still sells corn head grease in tubes but it is grade 0 not 00. It
does not flow on its own without being stirred up. </div>
