Lubriplate No. 1241 is an NLGI 1 lithium grease built for bushings and sleeve-type bearings under heavy load. Lubri-Loy's interchange list pairs it with a Lubri-Lith LG grease at NLGI 1. The interchange sheet prints the catalog number as 1074L; lubriloy.com sells the same NLGI 1 Red Lithium as 1014L, a 14 oz cartridge you can order direct.

Why choose 1014L
Priced and ready to buy
1014L is on lubriloy.com with a listed price and free US shipping. The case-of-30 pack is on the same page.
NLGI 1 for pumped and tight-tolerance systems
A softer NLGI 1 grease is easier to move through lines and into tight bushings, which is where Lubriplate positions No. 1241.
Same family as 2014L
If you also run NLGI 2, 2014L is from the same Lubri-Lith LG line.
