Product Description
SKF LGHB 2 high-viscosity, mineral-oil bearing grease on a complex calcium-sulphonate thickener for bearings under high load and high temperature in cement, mining and metals applications. 18 kg pail (designation LGHB 2/18).
Technical Specifications
- SKF LGHB 2 high-load, high-temperature, high-viscosity bearing grease. High-viscosity mineral base oil thickened with a complex calcium-sulphonate soap; NLGI consistency class 2, DIN 51825 code KP2N-20. Its extreme-pressure and corrosion-protection performance comes from the soap structure rather than added EP agents. Used for heavily loaded bearings at high temperature in the cement, mining and metals segments, with good pumpability in centralised systems. Operating temperature range -20 to +150 degC, withstanding peak temperatures around 200 degC; dropping point 300 degC (DIN ISO 2176); base oil viscosity 425 mm2/s at 40 degC; penetration 265-295 (DIN ISO 2137). Supplied in the 18 kg pail, SKF order designation LGHB 2/18.
