Yes.
"Wheel bearing grease" is a specific product made for cars and trucks that have ball or roller bearings for the axle spindles.
What you have in your grease gun (and mine) is just multi-purpose grease. It probably says that on the side of the cartridge.

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding, and thank you for the explanation.
In my youth, working on my bicycles and mopeds I always used general purpose grease for the ball bearings, then. I wasn't aware of the existence of a special wheel bearing grease.
Do stick around, it's just that some people don't want to be educated.
