MP3/AP3 GREASE
MP3 Grease is a lithium soap based premium quality multipurpose grease of NLGI 3 consistency. It is manufactured under strictly controlled conditions using high premium quality base oils & is fortified with rust & oxidation inhibitors. This grease has superior shear stability, surface adhesion and thus resistance to wear, corrosion, shock loading and oxidation. It is suitable for applications wherein operating temperatures rise to 120 0C under continuous service.
Applications
· Automotive wheel bearings, chassis, steering components etc.
· Earthmoving, mining and quarrying equipment under moderate
· Farm equipment like tractors, harvesters, implements etc
· Water pumps, generators, universal joints bearings, journal bearings etc
Main Benefits
· Reduces maintenance costs and downtime
· Clean bearings
· Superior water washout characteristics
· Good retention of structure under extreme operating conditions and under storage
· Superior protection against rust and corrosion
Performance standards
Exceeds the performance requirements of
· IS 7623
