Hoppe’s Black Gun Grease (12 ML Syringe)

Hoppe’s Black Gun Grease is a high‑performance lubricant formulated to protect moving parts on firearms and reduce wear during operation. Part of the Hoppe’s Black cleaning and lubrication system, this gun grease is engineered to withstand a very wide temperature range and includes rust‑inhibiting properties to help safeguard metal components against moisture and corrosion. It’s supplied in a precision application syringe for controlled use on key friction points.

Key Features

Extreme Temperature Performance

• Designed to remain effective across a broad operating range from approximately ‑65°F up to 540°F, making it suitable for high‑round‑count use in demanding conditions without breaking down or gumming up.

Friction & Wear Reduction

• Helps minimize metal‑to‑metal friction between moving parts, reducing wear and promoting smoother mechanical action in semi‑automatic and manual firearms alike.

Rust Protection

• Contains corrosion inhibitors that provide a protective barrier against rust and moisture, which can prolong the life of your firearm’s internal components.

Precision Syringe Application

• Supplied in a 12 cc syringe with a pointed tip that allows precise application of grease exactly where it’s needed — such as rails, lugs, and other high‑friction zones — without waste or mess.

Performance & Practical Use

Hoppe’s Black Gun Grease is formulated to perform in both extreme cold and high heat situations, making it compatible with a wide variety of firearms, from everyday carry pistols to high‑round‑count rifles. The thick, tacky consistency helps the lubricant stay in place on wear areas where parts interact, helping maintain smoother action and reducing mechanical wear over time. Its rust‑inhibitor content also adds a protective layer that guards against corrosion — especially helpful in humid or wet environments.

Because it’s designed not to gum up even under high temperatures and extended use, this grease can be a good choice after thorough bore cleaning and before storage or extended shooting sessions. Using a small amount on moving parts can support reliability and longevity without interfering with the operation of the firearm.

Best Suited For:

✔ Protecting moving parts on semi‑automatic and manual firearms
✔ Hot, high‑round‑count shooting sessions
✔ Rust and corrosion prevention during storage
✔ Shooters who want precise grease application via syringe

User Tips

Apply Sparingly:
A thin coating on high‑stress contact points such as slide rails, bolt lugs, and pivot pins is usually sufficient — too much grease can attract dust or fouling.

Clean Before Greasing:
Before applying grease, clean moving parts thoroughly to remove old lubricant, carbon, and fouling for best performance.

Use After Bore Cleaning:
In a comprehensive gun care routine, apply grease after solvent cleaning and drying, then wipe away excess before storage or range use.

Check Compatibility:
While formulated for firearms, any lubricant should be tested in small areas first on unusual finishes or coatings.
