Outstanding Advantages of LGHP 2/18
a. Excellent Heat and Oxidation Resistance
LGHP 2/18 withstands temperatures up to 150 °C without oil separation or deterioration during prolonged operation. This is a major advantage in industrial electric motors, drying fans and heat presses.
b. Reduced Friction and Smooth Operation
The special grease formulation reduces noise, vibration and friction in bearings. LGHP 2/18 is therefore preferred for applications requiring high accuracy and smooth operation , including power plants and the textile and food-processing industries.
c. Effective Rust Protection and Water Resistance
With strong oxidation and moisture resistance, LGHP 2/18 helps protect metal surfaces against corrosion and resists washout when exposed to water or moisture. This is particularly useful in humid environments such as paper mills, HVAC systems and drying lines.
d. Mechanical Stability and Low Deterioration
The grease maintains a stable structure even under heavy loads or continuous vibration, extending lubrication intervals and significantly reducing maintenance costs.
Common Applications of LGHP 2/18
Thanks to its outstanding characteristics, LGHP 2/18 is recommended for many industrial applications:
-
Electric motors (small, medium and large) —requiring stable lubrication and long service life.
-
Industrial fans, drying fans and furnace fans —high-temperature capability and low noise.
-
Pumps, air compressors and heat-resistant conveyors —requiring highly durable grease.
-
Equipment in the textile, paper, drying and food-processing industries.
-
Ball bearings, roller bearings, vertical shafts and kiln roller cars.
The 18 kg pack makes LGHP 2/18 suitable for automatic grease systems or scheduled maintenance programs in large factories.
Instructions for Use and Storage of LGHP 2/18
-
Clean bearings and components before applying grease.
-
Do not mix LGHP 2/18 with other greases.
-
Wear gloves and protective equipment during handling.
-
Store in a dry, ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
-
Close the lid tightly after use and use within 5 years of the manufacturing date.
