The Zipp Freehub Pawl Grease 20 ml is a specialty lubricant formulated to keep the freehub mechanism in your wheel’s hub operating smoothly and reliably. Freehub pawls are small, spring-loaded components that engage and disengage with the hub’s ratchet ring to transmit drive force when you pedal and allow coasting when you ease off. Proper lubrication of these pawls is essential: too little grease leads to chatter, excessive wear, and inconsistent engagement, while too much can cause sluggish release. This Zipp grease strikes the right balance for high-performance hubs.

This 20 ml tube contains a premium grease designed to handle the fine tolerances and rapid motion found inside modern freehub bodies. Applied sparingly, it helps reduce friction between pawls and engagement surfaces while resisting fling-off under high rotational speeds. The compound is engineered to stay in place through heat and vibration, helping maintain crisp engagement and long bearing life even under heavy loads or varied environmental conditions.

Routine service of your freehub with the correct pawl grease like this can improve shifting response, extend hub life, and reduce noise and wear — especially for riders who log big miles, race, or tackle mixed terrain. The compact 20 ml size is perfect for workshop use and offers enough lubricant for multiple hub services without waste.
