CASTROL CLASSIC Grease - Multipurpose High Temperature Grease (LMX) 400g Castrol-1604/7318

Castrol High Temperature Grease

Multipurpose High Temperature Grease

Extremely high melting point, lithium based grease. Designed for use in anti-friction bearings operating in high temperature conditions. Ideally suited for competition wheel bearing application.

Description

Castrol High Temperature Grease is a high performance, multipurpose lithium complex grease developed using an

optimised combination of high quality mineral oil, proprietary thickener technology and a specially selected additive

system enabling reliable performance across a wide range of temperatures whilst exposed to a variety of operational

loads, speeds and environmental conditions.

Application

Castrol High Temperature Grease is intended for use in a wide range of plain and rolling element bearings within both

the Automotive and Industrial markets, especially targeting those applications where upper operating temperatures are

likely to exceed the limits of conventional, lithium thickened greases.

The excellent thermal and mechanical stability of Castrol High Temperature Grease make it particularly suitable for use

in automotive bearing applications where rotational speeds may be higher or prolonged heavy braking may generate

higher than normal hub temperatures. Specific examples may include cars fitted with disc brakes or commercial

vehicles such as trucks or buses.

Castrol High Temperature Grease also offers good resistance to water and corrosion as well as very good load

carrying performance making it suitable for general vehicle chassis lubrication or bearings on off-road construction

vehicles where greater extremes of pressure may be prevalent.

This grease is rated : NLGI grade 1

These NLGI grades are then used to express the level of consistency each grease has.

So, for instance:

NLGI grade 000 grease is completely fluid

NLGI grade 0 grease is described as very soft

NLGI 1 grease is soft

NLGI 2 grease is considered normal

NLGI 3 grease is firm

NLGI 6 grease is defined as very hard.

Advantages

Excellent thermal and mechanical stability ensure prolonged product integrity across a wider operating

temperature range, thus enabling extended relubrication intervals and reduced maintenance.

Good extreme pressure and anti-wear properties provide the potential for prolonged component life.

Good water resistance provides enhanced protection in applications where the potential for exposure and

contamination are higher.

Good corrosion protection.

Excellent multipurpose potential enabling a reduction in product inventory.
