EP GREASE
Product Description
PETROMIN EP GREASE series is extreme pressure lithium soap grease, which contains oxidation, rust and
corrosion inhibitors and provides excellent EP properties. The use of a lithium soap base ensures effective
resistance to softening under severe working conditions, efficient water resistance and a consistency,
which remains relatively constant over the recommended range of operating temperatures. Petromin EP
Grease is non-corrosive to both steel and copper. The later is of importance because of the use of bronze
cages in many anti-friction bearings. The grease exhibits effective resistance to bleeding and superior
resistance to water washout.
Features and Benefits
Superior lubrication under heavy and shock loading.
Excellent load carrying ability.
Excellent resistance to water washing.
Effective rust protection and corrosion resistance.
Applications
PETROMIN EP GREASE is recommended for lubrication of plain and rolling element bearings in normal
through heavy-duty industrial applications.
It is suitable where loads are high or shock loads are present. It resists water washing and provide rust
protection for bearings if water is present. The softer grades are particularly suitable for use in centralized
lubrication systems.
Can be used for both automotive and industrial applications.
