HP WHEEL BEARING GREASE is a sodium soap grease.
Meets IS : 10647 : 1983 (Re-affirmed 2004).
Recommended for lubrication of universal joints, wheel bearings, high temperature clutch release,generator and fan bearings.
- Trouble free long service
- Good structural stability under high temperature or centrifugal force
- Easily pumpable & do not channel when cold
LITHON grades meet the requirements of all industrial grease applications for plain and antifriction bearings in steel mills, paper mills, electric motors & generators, pumps, conveyors, compressors, machine tools, etc. LITHON EP has, in addition, shear stability, high load carrying capacity and is recommended for situations requiring the use of an extreme pressure multipurpose grease. LITHON EP2 is also suitable for ball and roller bearings of railway axle boxes. LITHON M 2 is suitable for applications where fretting corrosion may be a problem, such as lubrication of splined shafts.
- LITHON 2 & 3 meet IS:7623-1993 Grade 2 & 3 type respectively and IPSS 1-09-006
- LITHON EP 1 & EP 2 meet IS:7623-1993 Grade EP 1 & EP 2 type respectively and IPSS 1-09-005.
