MULTIFAK® EP 2 M3

Available Pack Size: 16KG / 180KG
SKU Code: 510884JFK / 510884FOK

Multifak EP 2 M3 is a dark grey, multipurpose EP grease primarily designed for construction, mining and agricultural equipment where an extra measure of protection in shock loading conditions is required.

Multifak EP 2 M3 contains a highly refined ISO VG 220 mineral base oil, lithium soap thickener, EP additives, rust and oxidation inhibitors, plus molybdenum disulfide as a solid film lubricant.

Customer Benefits
  • Protects metal surfaces
    The combination of EP additives and molybdenum disulfide solid film lubricant helps protect against component wear under high load conditions and/or shock loading. Rust and corrosion inhibitors helps protect metal surfaces in wet operating conditions. Even if by mistake insufficient grease is used, some molybdenum disulfide tends to stay in place and helps to protect metal surfaces.
  • Enhances service life
    Excellent oxidation resistance helps to enhance grease service life.
  • Ease of application
    Optimized flow properties provide suitable flow properties for auto grease pump application systems.
  • Reduces complexity
    Multipurpose capability allows use in a wide range of heavy-duty automotive and industrial applications, helping to reduce the number of different greases required and thus eliminate product misapplication.

Product maintenance and handling

The inclusion of molybdenum disulfide provides an extra measure of protection under shock loading which is very common in construction, off-highway transport and agricultural usage. During heavy shock loading, the lubricant film between metal surfaces can be temporarily ruptured or squeezed out.

Multifak EP 2 M3 is designed so that some molybdenum disulfide stays in place as a solid film lubricant to help protect metal surfaces, even under extreme shock loading conditions, helping to prevent metal-to-metal contact which could cause component damage. The presence of molybdenum disulfide is also valuable in dirty environments, or when proper re-greasing intervals cannot be followed.
