Outdoorsman panhead grease??

[Bonnsaw]

Does anyone know what type or brand of grease Outdoorsmans uses to grease there pan heads? I contacted them and they said  that I would need to send it in and pay $50 to have them grease it. They said their machine shop has some special engineered grease that you can’t buy in the stores or online . I’m not sure if that true or not. After spending $1000 on their tripod set up you would think that they would be a little more helpful and would not try to squeeze another $50 for alittle grease.

I'm surprised at their reaction.  I've always known them to stand behind their products and be helpful not just with maintenance and repairs.  Let us know how this turns out.

They were nice enough about it I just can’t bring myself to pay $50 plus shipping on a dab of grease

Maybe contact their machine shop located in Payson directly. I believe its Rim Country Mfg.

It’s got to be a A silicone-based grease. Low load, low speed low temp rating. 
 

just about any thing will due

Good idea on contacting Rim country. Just called. They did say it’s a special type that you can’t buy off the shelf. He did say that if I  was to buy a grease off the shelf try a medium base grease possibly a synthetic grease. He was very nice but couldn’t tell me the name or brand of what they use. So outdoorsman Wasn’t being shady I guess they just don’t know?

Highly viscuous silicone grease.  Not easy to find in small quantities.  Manfrotto sells grease for their tripod heads online, may not be suitable for the Outdoorsmans pan head.
