PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL GLC multi-purpose, EP grease is qualified
against the highest grease standards, NLGI GC (wheel bearing) and LB
(chassis), and is designed for multiple use applications. This grease is
composed of synthetic base oils and lithium complex thickeners that provide
the film strength, shear resistance and mechanical stability required for
good grease lubrication. This combination excels in high and low operating
temperature ranges by providing excellent oxidation stability, high
temperature dropping points, good low temperature torque values and good low
temperature pumping capabilities. GLC Grease is compounded with an effective
oil soluble extreme-pressure additive for heavy loads, plus oxidation and
corrosion inhibitors that impart good oxidation stability and rust
protection.
AMSOIL’s top performing lithium complex thickener system
provides excellent adhesion properties and water resistance as identified by
ASTM D-1264 water washout test. This resistance to water means a protective
film of lubricant remains present to protect equipment against wear while
the corrosion inhibitors prevent rust. AMSOIL GLC Grease adheres to metal in
all types of environments and resists squeeze out during operation. These
qualities ensure maximum lubricant protection during harsh operations.
AMSOIL GLC multi-purpose greases is recommended for many
different applications. Its diversity simplifies lubricant inventories and
prevents greasing errors while providing problem-free operation. AMSOIL GLC
Grease reduces repair and maintenance costs.
PERFORMANCE FEATURES
- High dropping point of 550°F
- Resists thermal and oxidation degradation (lasts
longer than conventional grease)
- Excellent water-washout resistance
- Good low temperature pumpability and torque values
- Adhesive and shear stable to prevent squeeze out
APPLICATION
RECOMMENDATION
NLGI #2 (GLC) is the preferred choice for medium
to high ambient temperatures, sleeve type bushings, high shock loading
environments, wet environments. and is the primary choice for wheel
bearings.
The correct consistency grade of AMSOIL GL multi-purpose
greases are recommended for use in heavy and light duty applications found
in manufacturing plants, automotive applications, agricultural equipment and
construction equipment. These include, but are not limited to, roller
bearings, plain bearings, thrust bearings, gears, electric motors, presses,
winches, bushings, wheel bearings. chassis lubrication, universal joints,
ball joints, tie-rod ends, and steering knuckles. AMSOIL GL greases are
suitable for use up to 350° F. When operating at elevated temperatures,
frequent regreasing may be required.
AMSOIL GL Lithium Complex Greases are compatible with many
other types of greases. However, it is recommended that when changing
greases, the equipment be cleaned of the old grease when possible or flushed
with a liberal amount of the GL grease while the mechanism is in operation.
Closely monitor the system for any inconsistencies. Grease compatibility
questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL Inc.
APPLICATION
MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is important when
equipment greasing is performed. Wipe grease fitting clean prior to
injecting grease to prevent contaminant ingestion. Maintain bearing housings
one-third to one-half full of grease. Do not over-grease, as excessive heat
buildup can result. Supplement standard grease maintenance by periodically
cleaning and packing housings with fresh grease on an established
maintenance schedule.
