Customer Benefits
Long service life at high temperatures
Synthetic polyurea thickener is oxidatively stable at elevated temperatures. This, coupled with its high dropping point and the highly refined base oil and high performance anti-oxidant components, enables operation for periods at high temperatures.
Long bearing life under severe conditions
Special rust and corrosion inhibitors provide protection to metal surfaces in wet conditions, even in a salt water environment. Passes Bearing Rust Test, ASTM D5969 with synthetic sea water. Outstanding oxidation stability helps prevent the formation of corrosive oxidation by products.
Excellent resistance to water washout
Synthetic polyurea thickener has excellent inherent water resistance.
Wide application range
Wide temperature range capability and excellent water resistance allow use in a wide variety of operating conditions.
Applications
Chevron SRI® Grease may be used in:
- High speed bearings operating under high or low temperature conditions
- Unsealed bearings where there is the likelihood of fresh or salt water getting into the bearings
- Sealed-for-life bearings
- Industrial ball and roller bearings
- Electric motor, fan, and air-conditioning unit bearings
- Automotive alternator, generator and starter motor bearings
- Water pump bearings
- Boat trailer wheel bearings
Usable temperature range in continuous service from -30 to 150°C. Maximum temperature for short term exposure is 175°C.
