Description
LGEM 2 High viscosity grease with solid lubricants
SKF LGEM 2 is a high viscosity, mineral oil based grease using a lithium/calcium soap. Its content of molybdenum disulphide and graphite provides extra protection for harsh applications subjected to high loads, heavy vibrations and slow rotations.
Characteristics
- High oxidation stability
- Molybdenum disulphide and graphite provide lubrication even if the oil film breaks down
- Volume: 18 kg pail
- Also available in: 420 ml cartridge, 5 kg can, 180 kg drum
Applications
- Rolling element bearings running at low speed and very high loads
- Jaw crushers
- Track laying machines
- Lift mast wheels
- Building machines such as mechanical rams, crane arms, and crane hooks
