Advanced Synthetic Biodegradeable Extreme Pressure Grease. A fully synthetic biodegradeable grease for use in applications where environmental acceptability is required. This grease is based upon a lithium hydroxystearate soap thickener and is fortified with extreme pressure, antioxidant, anti-wear and anti-rust additives.
Applications
Plain and rolling element bearings and general industrial lubrication.
Operation over the temperature range -35 0 C to 100 0 C for bearings operating at 75% of the maximum rated speed (can withstand up to 120 0 C intermittently).
Performance & benefits
Good oxidation and mechanical stabilityResists the formation of deposits caused by oxidation at high operating temperatures and maintains consistency, reducing leakage.
Good corrosion resistance characteristicsEffective protection in hostile environments.
Lower Environmental ImpactRecommended for use in environmentally sensitive areas: An ‘environmentally acceptable lubricant’ as defined by the USA EPA 2013 Vessel General Permit and offers reduced impact of leak or accidental spillage into the environment when used in marine environments compared to conventional mineral oils. Readily biodegradable - biodegraded by over 60% after 28 days in the OECD 301 B carbon dioxide evolution test. Low Ecotoxicity - Classified as ‘not harmful’ to bacteria, algae, freshwater and marine invertebrates, and fish when tested as water- accommodated fractions (WAFs) according to OECD and EPA test guidelines.
Meets requirement of United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2013 vessel general permit (VGP)
