Product Information
Full details
The Silkolene RENOLIT EP2 Premium Multipurpose Grease is designed for users of high-pressure greasing equipment in automotive and heavy industrial sectors. Its key benefit is providing long-life lubrication that effectively eliminates friction and wear, simplifying inventory through product rationalization. A potential caveat is its specific formulation, which might not be suitable for all types of machinery if specialized greases are required.

FAQs
What does 'EP2' mean?
'EP2' refers to Extreme Pressure, Grade 2. This indicates the grease is formulated to withstand high loads and pressures, and Grade 2 is a common consistency classification for industrial greases.
Can this grease be used in very cold weather?
RENOLIT EP2 is designed for a wide range of temperatures, but for extreme sub-zero conditions, it's advisable to consult specific temperature charts or equipment manufacturer recommendations to ensure optimal performance.
How often should I re-grease components with RENOLIT EP2?
Re-greasing intervals depend heavily on the specific application, operating conditions (load, speed, temperature, environment), and the equipment manufacturer's recommendations. Refer to your equipment's maintenance manual for guidance.
What types of equipment is this grease best suited for?
It is suitable for a wide array of automotive and heavy industrial applications, including bearings, chassis parts, universal joints, and any component requiring an EP2 rated grease that can handle high pressures and reduce wear.
Does Silkolene offer this grease in different sizes?
Product availability in different sizes can vary. Please check with your retailer for the specific packaging options available for Silkolene RENOLIT EP2.
Is this grease compatible with synthetic lubricants?
While generally compatible with mineral oil-based greases, it's always best practice to thoroughly clean out old lubricants before applying a new type to avoid potential reactions or reduced performance. Compatibility with synthetic base oils should be confirmed if mixing is a concern.
Troubleshooting
Grease appears too stiff or too soft.
Ensure the grease has been stored within recommended temperature ranges. Extreme temperatures can temporarily affect viscosity. If the issue persists after returning to normal temperatures, check the product batch information for any anomalies.
Leakage observed despite 'no-leak guarantee'.
Verify that the grease has been applied correctly and that seals on the lubricated components are intact. The guarantee refers to the grease's inherent properties; component failure or improper application can still lead to apparent leakage.
Reduced lubrication effectiveness over time.
This may indicate a need for re-application. Consult equipment manufacturer guidelines for recommended re-greasing intervals based on usage and operating conditions. Ensure proper application technique to achieve full coverage.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent performance under high pressure.
- Reduces wear and extends the life of machinery.
- Simplifies inventory management by covering multiple applications.
- Offers long-lasting protection, reducing maintenance frequency.
- Guaranteed to prevent leaks, maintaining cleanliness.
Cons
- May not be suitable for extremely low-temperature applications without further verification.
- Specific EP2 classification means it's optimized for certain bearing types; check compatibility for highly specialized equipment.
- While multipurpose, highly specialized industrial processes might require specific-purpose greases.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Silkolene RENOLIT EP2 grease is ready to use directly from its packaging. Ensure that the area to be lubricated is clean and free from old grease or contaminants before application. Apply using standard greasing equipment, such as a grease gun, ensuring even coverage of the component or bearing.
Compatibility: This grease is generally compatible with most mineral oil-based greases. However, it is always recommended to clean out old grease thoroughly before applying RENOLIT EP2 to avoid potential incompatibilities. It is suitable for a wide range of automotive and industrial applications, particularly those requiring an EP2 rated grease. Always consult your equipment manufacturer's specifications if you are unsure about grease compatibility.
Care: Store the grease in its original, sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the container is closed tightly after use to prevent contamination and maintain its properties. Regular inspection of lubricated components will help determine the optimal re-greasing intervals, which depend on operating conditions.
