On boats that operate heavily in saltwater or see frequent use, the ability to inject fresh grease into the sealed assembly with a grease gun extends the service life of the steering rod connection significantly compared to a sealed-only approach. It’s compatible with both cable and hydraulic steering systems, making it a versatile maintenance item. As with all steering rod sealers, install on a clean, properly lubricated rod — the Lube II seals and maintains lubrication but won’t restore a rod that is already corroded or worn. Confirm thread compatibility with your engine’s steering rod before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LNS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51250854297636,"sku":"166-425","price":62.48,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/41262061-58b1-4382-b74f-83ca0d193c98.png?v=1787339789","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/davis-425-lube-ii-steering-rod-sealer-and-lubricator-166-425","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
