Lithium Base Grease
(Available in NLGI, No. 0,1,2,3)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Multipurpose grease EP is a series of high quality, lithium hydroxy stearate extreme pressure grease. It incorporates a lead-free EP additive and is for use where surfaces are subjected to heavy or shock loading. It also contains oxidation and corrosion, inhibitor, which help to ensure long service life of the grease and a high level of protection for ferrous surfaces.
These greases are for use in plain and rolling bearings operating under severe conditions of shock loading, all types and in all kinds of machinery- including electrical motors, machine tools, textile, paper making and wood working machines and construction equipment - where the continuous operating temperatures are within the specified limits.
These greases can be used at higher temperatures up to 180° C for short duration or with frequent replacement. Continuous operating temperature range for these greases: -20 to 130° c.

APPLICATIONS:

Calcium greases are recommended for use in water pumps, wire ropes, plain anti-friction bearings operating at mild conditions and lower temperatures. Also recommended for mining machinery such as loaders, mobile drills, compressors and gearboxes, Calcium is suitable as a general-purpose grease where water washout is a problem.
