We strongly recommend always using Andersen Winch Grease when lubricating your winches. Andersen Winch Grease is a high quality silicone/Teflon® grease product. Most other types of grease, including “marine grease” are not suitable for lubrication of winches. Non-suitable grease products can cause malfunction, which could result in fatal injuries for the user and others.
Due to the high quality of materials and precision manufacturing, for normal winch use, you typically will only need to dismantle, clean and lubricate your winches once every second year when using Andersen Winch Grease.
Under extensive use, such as racing, charter or blue water sailing, we recommend lubricating the winch at least once every year.
This product can expose you to chemicals which are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
