LGEP 2 SKF high load, extreme pressure (EP) bearing grease
SKF LGEP 2 is mineral oil based, lithium soap thickened grease with extreme pressure additives. This grease provides good lubrication in general applications subjected to harsh conditions and vibrations.
- Excellent mechanical stability
- Extremely good corrosion inhibiting properties
- Excellent EP performance
Typical applications:
- Pulp and paper making machines
- Jaw crushers
- Traction motors for rail vehicles
- Dam gates
- Work roll bearings in steel industry
- Heavy machinery, vibrating screens
- Crane wheels, sheaves
- Slewing bearings
