Exceptional Thermal StabilitySKF LGHP 2/1 provides outstanding stability at elevated temperatures, making it an ideal choice for applications involving continuous high-speed operation and demanding thermal conditions. This ensures long-term lubrication and decreases the frequency of relubrication.
Corrosion and Water ResistanceWith proven corrosion protection (Emcor test rating 0-0) and minimal water washout (1% weight loss at 79C), the grease safeguards bearings against moisture, rust, and contamination, enhancing operational reliability in wet or humid environments.
Wide Application CompatibilitySuited for ball and roller bearings in electric motors, industrial machinery, and marine equipment, SKF LGHP 2/1 delivers consistent performance across various settings. Additionally, it is compatible with most other grease types except sodium-based products.
FAQs of SKF Bearing Grease LGHP 2/1:
Q: How should SKF Bearing Grease LGHP 2/1 be applied to bearings or machinery?
A: SKF LGHP 2/1 should be applied using conventional greasing methods, such as manual or automatic grease guns, ensuring that the bearing housings are clean and free of previous grease, especially sodium-based types, to maintain compatibility and optimal performance.
Q: What benefits does the polyurea thickener in LGHP 2/1 offer compared to traditional thickeners?
A: The polyurea thickener provides enhanced thermal stability and longer service life, enabling the grease to withstand high temperatures up to +150C. It also contributes to improved corrosion resistance and water washout performance, ensuring better protection for bearings.
Q: When does SKF LGHP 2/1 need to be replaced or replenished in an application?
A: Relubrication intervals depend on operating conditions, but due to its high thermal stability and five-year storage life, SKF LGHP 2/1 typically requires less frequent replacement in comparison to standard greases, making it cost-effective for long-term machinery lubrication.
Q: Where can the SKF Bearing Grease LGHP 2/1 be used effectively?
A: This grease is effective in industrial, automotive, and marine environments, particularly for lubricating ball and roller bearings in electric motors and machinery subjected to high speeds and temperatures.
Q: What is the Emcor test rating, and why is it important for SKF LGHP 2/1?
A: The Emcor test rating of 0-0 indicates excellent corrosion protection, meaning the grease effectively inhibits rust formation on bearing surfaces, even under exposure to water, thus prolonging bearing life and reliability.
Q: Is SKF Bearing Grease LGHP 2/1 compatible with other types of greases?
A: LGHP 2/1 is compatible with most grease types except those based on sodium. This ensures flexibility for maintenance and relubrication across various machinery without risking adverse chemical reactions.
Q: What are the recommended storage conditions for SKF LGHP 2/1, and how long can it be stored?
A: SKF LGHP 2/1 should be stored in its original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Under these conditions, it maintains its properties for up to five years, ensuring dependable performance when used within its shelf life.
