What is EP3 grease?
What is EP3 grease?
Valvoline Lithium EP3 Grease is a premium quality lithium soap grease containing extreme pressure additives, formulated to provide outstanding mechanical stability & EP characteristics under severe operating conditions. SDS.
What is the viscosity of grease?
Grease is usually lithium, with a normal viscosity of 100 centistokes. This typically has a maximum operating temperature of 121 C (250 F), but it is usually limited to a service temperature of 93 C (200 F).
What is the difference between EP 1 and EP 2 grease?
Grease Lithium EP is specially formulated to lubricate all sorts of equipment and mechanisms. Grease Lithium EP 1 will work very will in centralized systems and extreme pressure gears working at ambient temperatures. Grease Lithium EP 2 and 3 are well suited in heavy duty bearings and general industrial lubrication.
Is EP grease OK for wheel bearings?
EP2 lithium grease is best used for applications that involve a wide range of temperatures and high/extreme pressure conditions. It is also great for the wheel bearings of conventional and disc brakes where conventional grease can and will usually melt.
What is GP grease?
GP grease is an all-purpose grease which is ideal for squeaky fences to rattling cars. GP greases are also typically lower in cost and used where premium performance is not a requirement. GP grease is mostly used on lightly loaded bearings that require frequent lubrication.
What is Blue Lithium Grease?
A specially developed multi-purpose lubricating grease for all anti-friction and plain bearing applications. Lithium Complex is recommended for use in highly loaded industrial and automotive applications such as wheel bearings, pump bearings etc. It has been primarily designed as a wheel bearing and chassis grease.
What does LM stand for in grease?
Lithium grease is the most commonly used lubricating grease around the globe – accounting for 75% of lubricating applications across all industries. In the automotive industry it is commonly used as a lubricant in wheel bearing and chassis applications.
