Lithium Complex MOLY EP2 Grease
DISCRIPTION
Product Data
This is a Lithium Complex soap based, premium quality EP grease. It is manufactured under strictly controlled conditions using premium quality base oils & is fortified with extreme pressure (EP) additives & corrosion & oxidation inhibitors.
This product has a durable film & superior surface adhesion. This grease also has good shear stability & good roll stability making it a very versatile solution, with a wide variety of potential applications. The MOLY solid lubricant present in the grease provides a robust barrier against metal to metal contact when under severe loading.
This grease is suitable for applications with an operating temperature range of -20 to +180 0C under routine service.
Applications
- Automotive wheel bearings, chassis, steering components and other heavily loaded components
- Earthmoving, mining and quarrying equipment under heavy loads
- Farm equipment like tractors, harvesters, implements etc
- Steel Mills
Main Benefits
- Excellent Oxidation & Heat stability
- Superior boundary film strength leading to reduction in maintenance costs and downtime
- Superior resistance to water washout
- Superior Roll & Shear stability
- Excellent retention of structure under extreme operating conditions and under storage
- Superior protection against rust and corrosion
Performance standards
- Exceeds the performance requirements of
IS 12203
