Sinopec Heavy Duty LC Mining Grease is a high-temperature extreme pressure (EP) grease formulated with a lithium complex soap thickener and high viscosity mineral base oil, available in NLGI 2. It contains rust and oxidation inhibitors, EP, and anti-wear additives, as well as 5% of solids including molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 or ‘moly’), which provide additional wear protection, especially under severe vibrating or oscillating conditions that are found in many mining applications.
- Excellent extreme pressure and anti-wear properties protect heavily loaded or shock-loaded bearings and gears from wear, extending equipment life.
- The lithium complex soap thickener ensures a high dropping point, which means that the grease can be used at higher temperatures in severe service applications (the operating temperature range is from –10°C to +150°C). It also confers excellent mechanical stability so that the grease structure does not break down in service.
- High base oil viscosity ensures a good oil film thickness is maintained even under severe high-temperature conditions, protecting components against wear.
- Excellent water resistance means that the grease stays in place and is not washed or sprayed off in wet conditions, reducing the need for frequent re-application.
- Good thermal and oxidation stability ensures longer grease life under high-temperature conditions, providing optimum lubrication, extending equipment life, and reducing maintenance requirements.
