CRC Brake Caliper Grease 12 oz Tub — Synthetic, Rubber- & Plastic-Safe, Water-Resistant

Designed for disc and drum brake systems, this high-performance grease helps maintain smooth sliding surfaces and contact points without attacking rubber boots or plastic components. The CRC formula resists water and common contaminants, extending service intervals and reducing squeal, stick and uneven pad wear when applied correctly to recommended brake hardware. Packaged in a convenient 12 weight ounce tub, it’s sized for workshop jobs and professional brake maintenance alike.

How does CRC brake caliper grease improve brake hardware performance?

Applied to caliper slides, guide pins and pad contact points, the grease reduces friction and prevents seizing that causes uneven braking and premature wear. Its synthetic base maintains consistency over a wide temperature range so parts move freely under normal driving conditions.

• Reduces caliper sticking and pad drag
• Minimizes vibration and noise from sliding surfaces
• Maintains lubrication at high and low operating temperatures

Is this grease safe to use around rubber boots and plastic parts?

Yes — the CRC 05353 formulation is rated safe for both rubber and plastic components commonly found in brake assemblies. That makes it appropriate for lubricating guide pin boots, abutments and plastic-backed hardware without degrading those materials.

• Non-damaging to rubber dust boots and seals
• Compatible with plastic clips and shims
• Suitable for mixed-material brake systems

Will the grease hold up against moisture and road contaminants?

The synthetic grease resists moisture intrusion and will not easily wash out during wet conditions, helping maintain a protective film on exposed metal contacts. This resistance reduces corrosion and preserves proper part movement between service intervals.

• Water‑resistant formulation to prevent washout
• Helps protect against rust on sliding surfaces
• Extends effective lubrication life under normal road exposure

How much product comes in the package and where is it used?

This SKU is supplied as a single 12 weight ounce tub — enough for multiple brake jobs or a full-vehicle service depending on application method. Use it on caliper guide pins, slides, pad contact points, and other metal-to-metal brake hardware to prevent binding and reduce noise.

• 12 wt oz tub for shop or DIY use
• Use on caliper pins, slides, pad abutments and similar points
• Pack of one tub per purchase
