It is a sealed bearing. I have cleaned out all the old hardened grease

But, there's nothing wrong with moly - I just wonder about the price?


I wouldn't pack the bearings with any grease containing moly, unless
it's specifically recommended for ball bearings. Moly lubes are
generally called for in heavily loaded plain bearings and not
recommended for small rolling bearings.
