Its lithium soap formulation provides optimal protection for bearings, universal joints, and chassis, ensuring smooth operation under both high load and temperature variations. The grease's high oxidation stability and robust corrosion resistance extend the life of mechanical components.
High-Temperature Performance and StabilityWith a drop point exceeding 190C and an operating temperature range from -20C to +120C, this lithium grease maintains its structure and lubricity even under harsh conditions. Its high viscosity and minimal water content (<0.1%) ensure consistent performance and protection against wear, while the off-white, mineral oil-based formula resists breakdown, prolonging maintenance intervals.
FAQ's of Lithium Nlgi Ap 2 Grease 18 KG:
Q: How should Lithium NLGI AP 2 Grease be applied for best results?
A: It is recommended to clean the application area thoroughly before use. Apply the grease directly on bearings, universal joints, or chassis parts using suitable dispensing equipment, ensuring even coverage for optimal lubrication and protection.
Q: What types of machinery or vehicles can use this grease?
A: This grease is ideal for both industrial machinery and automobiles. Common applications include automotive bearings, industrial bearings, universal joints, and chassis lubrication. Its high load-bearing capacity makes it suitable for heavy-duty and high-performance environments.
Q: When should I reapply Lithium NLGI AP 2 Grease for maintenance?
A: Reapplication interval depends on the operating conditions and manufacturer recommendations. In general, regular maintenance schedules ranging from weekly to monthly are advised, especially in high-load or high-temperature operations to maintain optimal equipment performance.
Q: Where should the grease be stored for maximum shelf life?
A: Store the 18 KG bucket in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Proper storage conditions help preserve the grease's properties, ensuring up to 24 months of usability from the date of manufacture.
Q: What are the benefits of using a lithium soap-based grease compared to others?
A: Lithium soap-based greases offer superior water resistance, excellent corrosion protection, high oxidation stability, and good shear stability. This ensures reliable lubrication, reduced wear, and extended service intervals under demanding operating conditions.
Q: How does the grease maintain performance under water or high-moisture conditions?
A: With good water resistance and a water content below 0.1%, the grease forms a protective barrier against moisture, preventing rust and extending the lifespan of machinery components even in wet environments.
