Hoppe’s Gun Grease – 1.75 oz Tube

Hoppe’s Gun Grease (1.75 oz Tube) is a traditional firearm-grade lubricant and long-term protective grease designed to shield metal parts on guns from corrosion and wear. Its thicker formula makes it especially useful for high-friction areas and storage protection, helping keep components operating smoothly and protected when regular cleaning isn’t possible.

Key Features

Long-Term Corrosion Protection:
• Specially formulated to protect firearms during extended periods of storage by displacing moisture and guarding against rust formation on metal surfaces.

Thicker Grease Consistency:
• A rich, high-viscosity grease that stays in place on moving parts and high-contact areas where thin oils might quickly run off or evaporate.

Lubricates Moving Parts:
• Helps reduce friction on components like rails, pivots, and other mechanisms that see wear from cycling and movement.

Displaces Metal “Sweat”:
• When applied to bore surfaces or exterior metal, it helps drive off microscopic moisture (“metal sweat”) that can accelerate corrosion.

Screw-Top Metal Tube:
• Supplied in a 1.75 oz tube with a screw-top cap for easy application and secure storage.

Technical Specifications

Performance & Practical Use

Hoppe’s Gun Grease fills a niche between light oils and heavy industrial greases — it provides a sticky, protective coating that stays where you apply it and resists runoff in storage environments or on seldom-used parts. This makes it ideal for key contact points on firearms that benefit from persistent lubrication, such as slide rails, pivots, and bolt assemblies.

Unlike thin sprays or oils that evaporate or shift over time, the grease’s thicker consistency helps maintain protection where metal parts meet and move. It also helps displace moisture that can collect on metal surfaces, reducing the risk of rust if your firearm sits uncleaned for a while.

Recommended Uses

✔ High-friction areas like rails, bolts, and pivots
✔ Guns entering long-term storage (safes, cases, off-season)
✔ Surfaces prone to corrosion from humidity or condensation
✔ Shooting gear and tools with metal-on-metal movement

User Tips

Apply Thinly:
• A small amount goes a long way — spread a thin, even layer where you want protection to avoid collecting dust or debris.

Prep Before Application:
• Always clean and dry metal parts before applying oil or grease so the product bonds to bare metal, not old residue.

Follow with Routine Maintenance:
• For best long-term care, remove the grease and re-apply after major cleaning sessions — especially if the firearm has seen extensive use.
