SKF High Viscosity Bearing Grease 18kg Pail

SKF LGEM 2 high-viscosity mineral-oil bearing grease on a lithium/calcium soap, with molybdenum disulphide and graphite solid lubricants, NLGI 2, for high-load, heavy-vibration, slow-rotation bearings. 18 kg pail (designation LGEM 2/18).

Technical Specifications

SKF LGEM 2 high-viscosity bearing grease with solid lubricants. High-viscosity mineral base oil thickened with a lithium/calcium soap, containing molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) and graphite for protection if the oil film breaks down; black, NLGI consistency class 2, DIN 51825 code KPF2K-20. Suited to rolling-element bearings running at low speed and very high loads, jaw crushers, track-laying machines, lift-mast wheels and building machines such as mechanical rams, crane arms and crane hooks. Operating temperature range -20 to +120 degC; dropping point >180 degC (DIN ISO 2176); base oil viscosity 500 mm2/s at 40 degC and 32 mm2/s at 100 degC; penetration 265-295 (DIN ISO 2137). Supplied in the 18 kg pail, SKF order designation LGEM 2/18.
