INDUSTRIAL GREASES
Meets specifications:
LITHOPLEX HTX Series meet IPSS: 1-09-020.
Application areas:
LITHOPLEX HTX grades meet the requirements of all industrial grease applications for ball and roller bearings in steel mills, paper mills, cement plants. LITHOPLEX HTX has, in addition to shear stability, high load carrying capacity and is recommended for situations having extremely high temperature. These greases are suitable for applications up to 200°C. LITHOPLEX HTX is also suitable for ball and roller bearings of railway axle boxes. LITHOPLEX HTX 1 is suitable for applications in the lubrication of the rack and pinion joint of the kilns in the cement industry. It is also suitable for slip seal application in sponge iron plant.
Performance benefits:
- Excellent resistance to leakage & dripping at high temperature
- Outstanding oxidation and mechanical stability
- Works most satisfactorily even at high loads, wet and dry situations
- Good rust protection characteristics
Special Features
LITHOPLEX HTX series of greases are premium quality, lithium base complex greases suitable for lubricating various types of mechanical equipments. These are superior multipurpose greases, developed to meet the varied temperature requirements of ball and roller bearing lubrication. They possess outstanding oxidation & mechanical stability, water-resistant and rust protection characteristics. These grades have an exceptionally high dropping point giving them excellent resistance to leakage, dripping and throw-off at elevated operating temperatures. Also they possess unique non corrosive EP additives to assist in boundary lubrication conditions.
