Exceptional Thermal and Mechanical StabilityThis grease maintains consistent performance even under elevated temperatures, boasting a drop point greater than 190C. It resists hardening, separation, or dripping, making it reliable for vehicles operating across a temperature range of -20C to +120C. Its superior worked penetration ensures smooth application and operational stability during extended periods.
Trusted Rust and Corrosion ProtectionTested under ASTM standards, this grease delivers outstanding rust and corrosion resistance, rated 1a for copper strip corrosion. Its unique formulation guards metallic parts from moisture, providing prolonged protection, reduced maintenance, and increased component lifespan-even in high-humidity or water-exposed environments.
Easy Application and CompatibilityPackaged in a user-friendly 18 kg bucket, the grease is simple to apply on various automotive components like bearings and chassis. It is compatible with most other lithium-based greases, allowing seamless transition or top-up without requiring thorough cleaning of existing lubricant, ensuring operational flexibility for mechanics and fleet owners.
FAQ's of Premium Long Life Lithium-Based Grease:
Q: How should Premium Long Life Lithium-Based Grease be applied in automotive settings?
A: Apply the grease directly onto bearings, chassis, or parts requiring lubrication, either manually or using a standard greasing tool. Ensure surfaces are relatively clean for best results, and avoid mixing with non-lithium-based greases to maintain optimal performance.
Q: What benefits does this grease offer compared to conventional lubricants?
A: This grease provides superior thermal stability, high resistance to water washout, excellent rust protection, and prolonged machinery life. Its advanced formulation reduces the frequency of reapplication and protects components under demanding conditions, enhancing reliability and lowering maintenance costs.
Q: When should this grease be replaced or replenished?
A: For best results, monitor components regularly and reapply the grease during routine servicing or when bearings and joints show signs of insufficient lubrication. Replace unused, unopened grease after 24 months, as specified by its shelf life.
Q: Where is this lithium-based grease most effective?
A: It is ideal for automotive bearings, chassis points, and general greasing tasks. Its robust composition makes it suitable for use in a wide range of vehicles operating in hot, wet, or dusty Indian environments.
Q: What is the process for ensuring compatibility with existing lubricants?
A: Before application, check if the current grease in use is lithium-based. If compatible, Premium Long Life Grease can be added directly. If previously non-lithium greases were used, thoroughly clean the components before switching to avoid chemical incompatibility.
Q: Is this grease safe for all vehicle types and components?
A: Yes, its formulation is designed for compatibility with most lithium-based greases, making it suitable for a broad variety of automotive components and vehicle types without risk of adverse reactions or material degradation.
Q: What are the storage requirements for maintaining product quality?
A: Store the bucket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, keeping the container tightly sealed until use. Proper storage ensures the grease remains effective for up to 24 months from manufacture.
