Extreme Pressure Grease 2
Lithium EP2 Grease is a lithium soap based premium quality extreme pressure grease of NLGI 2 consistency. It is manufactured using medium viscosity base oils fortified with extreme pressure additives & oxidation inhibitors. This grease has superior load carrying capability, 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
· Earthmoving, mining and quarrying equipment under moderate to heavy loads
· Farm equipment like tractors, harvesters, implements etc
· Industrial machinery used in steel, textile, sugar, paper industries
Main Benefits
· Superior film strength and therefore good load carrying capability
· Superior water washout characteristics
· Good retention of structure under extreme operating conditions and under storage
· Superior protection against rust and corrosion
· Good pumpability leading to ease of application
Performance standards
Exceeds the performance requirements of
· IS 7623
