Carlube Lithium EP2 Grease is a high melting point, smooth, multi-purpose grease based upon lithiu...Carlube Lithium EP2 Grease is a high melting point, smooth, multi-purpose grease based upon lithium soap. It is designed for automotive and industrial ball and roller bearing applications. The extreme pressure (EP) properties ensure excellent performance under shock loading, high pressures, or elevated temperatures. Application: Recommended for highly loaded ball, roller, or plain bearings, especially those experiencing high or shock loads. Also suitable for applications requiring an NLGI 2 Lithium Grease. Key Features: High resistance to oxidation and water washout. Good extreme pressure performance for high and shock load protection. Helps prevent disc brake squeal. Wide temperature range (-15°C to 120°C).
This guide is for users of Carlube Lithium EP2 Grease, offering a deep dive into its application and benefits. It ensures optimal performance in automotive and industrial applications. While the grease offers excellent protection, be mindful of the specific temperature range to ensure peak performance.
