Lubricating Grease

Listing ID #3346769

While lubricating oils are the best-suited products for the lubrication of any machine element, their use is not feasible in situation where the product is likely to leak out and not remain in bearing over extended periods of service. To lubricate such situations satisfactorily, solid to semi-solid materials of dispersions of thickening agents in liquid lubricants and containing, if necessary, other ingredients for imparting special properties have been developed. Such materials are known as lubricating greases.

The structure of the grease allows the lubricant to remain in a solid state until the shear stress between surfaces reaches a certain level and the grease starts to flow and becomes a mobile compound. Lubricating greases may be selected based on multiple criteria. Some of these criteria are application, industry segment and operating conditions.
Types of greases available are:

• AP3
• EP 2, EP3
• EPL 2
• High Temperature
• And various others.
