From the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 8
“No eye-hazard H-codes in SDS Section 2 (no H319 or H318). SDS Section 8 recommends safety glasses as a general precaution during handling; the paste consistency substantially reduces splash risk for routine application.”

From the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 8
“No H315 skin-irritation code in SDS Section 2 mixture classification. SDS Section 8 recommends gloves and washing after contact with the petroleum-derived base oil; brief, controlled application is the normal exposure pathway for routine home use.”

TL;DR Tub-format white lithium grease sold in a six-pack, with a commercial track record through NAPA and industrial supply. Community durability data for this SKU is limited, so the quality score is provisional. SDS Section 15 documents a California Prop 65 warning; the health score reflects it.
This is a paste-consistency grease in wide-mouth tubs. It covers door hinges, hood and trunk latches, garage door tracks, and metal sliders that cycle under load. Application requires a brush, cotton swab, or gloved finger; the tub format lacks a precision nozzle, so reaching recessed hinge pins takes more effort than a squeeze tube or aerosol straw. The grease is spec'd for a 0-300 degree Fahrenheit range per distributor data. Independent community confirmation for this specific SKU is limited; the manufacturer's durability claims are unverified until corroborated by additional long-term reviews.
Makes most sense for shops buying in volume through commercial supply channels where the six-pack quantity fits. For a single home-garage purchase, squeeze-tube alternatives offer comparable chemistry with easier precision delivery. Skip it for rubber seals and plastic contact surfaces; white lithium grease can degrade certain polymers. For electrical connections, dielectric grease is the correct choice.
The SDS has no health H-codes in Section 2 and no signal word. SDS Section 15 documents a California Prop 65 warning for compounds associated with trace contamination in the petroleum-derived base oil fractions; the health score reflects this. SDS Section 8 recommends gloves and washing after contact. SDS Section 2 classifies acute and chronic aquatic toxicity (H401, H411); SDS Section 12 warrants avoiding runoff to storm drains during disposal.
The primary use cases are metal-on-metal contact points: door hinges, hood and trunk latches, garage door tracks, drawer slides, and similar sliders that cycle repeatedly under load. The label also covers industrial and mechanical applications through the NAPA trade channel. Skip it for rubber seals and most plastic contact surfaces; white lithium grease can degrade certain polymers. For electrical connections, dielectric grease is the right choice.
SL3151 is the Super White Multi-Purpose Lithium Grease in the 14 oz wide-mouth tub format. Sta-Lube also offers a white lithium grease aerosol under a different part number. The tub format requires a brush, cotton swab, or gloved finger for application and offers more control on flat surfaces like tracks; the aerosol format uses an extension straw to reach recessed hinge pins. The SDS chemistry is similar between formats, but the aerosol carries an elevated inhalation exposure pathway by nature of its delivery method.
Not necessarily for routine home use. SDS Section 15 documents the Prop 65 warning for compounds associated with trace contamination in petroleum-derived base oil fractions. The health score reflects this. For brief, occasional application to hinges and tracks in an open space, exposure is very limited. The Prop 65 warning is a legal disclosure requirement and does not indicate an acute hazard under normal use conditions.
