Customer Benefits
Multifak EP greases deliver value through:
- Good water resistance — Resistance to washout of bearings.
- Good corrosion protection — Inhibited to help protect bearing surfaces.
- Good oxidation stability — Helps to support long life in storage and in use.
- Simplified lubrication — One grease designed to satisfy many different industrial grease requirements.
- Low oil separation tendency — Recommended by Chevron for use in typical centralized lubrication systems.
- Protects metal surfaces – Effective EP additive protects against component wear under high load conditions. Rust
- and corrosion inhibitors protect metal surfaces.
- Good pumpability – Good pumpability characteristics of the lithium thickener provide suitable flow properties for
- grease pump application systems (NLGI 00, 0, 1).
Multipurpose EP grease contains highly refined mineral base oils, lithium thickener, extreme pressure (EP) additives and rust and oxidation inhibitors. Suitable as a multipurpose automotive grease for general purpose applications and many industrial, commercial and Marine applications.
