What are High Temperature Greases? The grease that works at continuous temperatures above 200 degree Celsius, at 300 degree Celsius or even 400 degree Celsius is known as high temperature grease. High temperature grease can be made using a Bentone thickener and high quality mineral oils. Bentone thickened greases have greater advantages where high temperature operation is concerned. They do not break down at higher temperatures making the equipment work effortlessly. While working in a machinery situation where the temperature gets heated up, choosing the right grease or lubricant oil becomes important. But, how to choose the right grease!
The various criteria that help us choosing the right lubricant or grease are as follows: There are many criteria that needs to be considered when selecting high temperature greases for hot grease lubricated machineries and these are – oil type and viscosity, oil viscosity index, additive composition and properties, thickener type, working temperature, ambient temperature, stability of the composition formed by the oil and the thickener, atmospheric pollution, loading, speed, re-lubrication intervals, and so on. Where these high temperature greases are used?
Conclusion: Looking for good quality high temperature greases for your machineries? Need help in deciding the right high temperature lubricant? Do contact OMSC at Oman Mechanical Services Company Ltd. LLC today.
