M109A6 Paladin…
Switch Grease to Stop
O
-ring Swelling
M777A2 Howitzer Has
New
Website
Crewmen, O-rings from the bore
evacuator on the Paladin’s gun
tube sometimes
swell
so much after
being removed for maintenance that
they can’t be reinstalled.
That’ll put
a stop to
any
firing
mission in a
hurry!
Testing has shown
the swelling is caused
by GMD, so stop using
that grease
now.
instead, use general
purpose grease (GGP)
or GAA when lubing
O-rings.
Using grease other than GGP or GAA can make O-rings swell
what
happened?
I just used a
little GMD and
now your bore
evacuator’s
O-ring is
waaay
too big!
my
new website
has got some
great
info!
you got
that
right! this is
really gonna
help us out!
