🔧 COMPARISON OF SEVERAL COMMON SKF GREASES
| SKF grease | Base oil | Thickener | Operating temperature (°C) | Key characteristics | Typical applications |
| LGMT 2 | Mineral | Lithium | -30 to +120 | General-purpose, medium-load and easy to use | Motor bearings, machine tools and fans |
| LGEP 2 | Mineral | Lithium | -20 to +110 | Contains EP additives for heavy loads | Heavily loaded bearings and open gears |
| LGHP 2 | Synthetic | Polyurea | -40 to +150 (short-term +200) | High-temperature capability and long service life | High-speed electric motors, compressors and fans |
| LGWA 2 | Mineral | Lithium complex | -30 to +140 | Handles high temperatures and loads, with good water resistance | Truck wheel bearings and construction machinery |
| LGGB 2 | Bio-based | Lithium | -40 to +120 | Environmentally considerate and biodegradable | Outdoor applications and forestry |
| LGEM 2 | Mineral | Lithium | -20 to +120 | Designed for low speeds and severe vibration | Large bearings, crushers and vibrating machinery |
| LGET 2 | Synthetic (fluorinated) | PTFE | -50 to +260 | Extremely resistant to heat and chemicals, and non-flammable | Chemical industry and extremely high temperatures |
📌 GUIDANCE FOR SELECTING SKF GREASE
- Operating temperature: For equipment operating above 120°C, use LGHP 2 or LGET 2.
- Harsh or wet environments: Choose LGWA 2 or LGGB 2.
- Severe vibration: LGEM 2 is an optimal choice.
- Cost-effective general-purpose grease: LGMT 2 is suitable for most conventional industrial equipment.
