complex soap thickener fortified with excellent antioxidant, antirust and antiwear additive systems. The
viscometrics of the base oil blend suits the lubrication requirements of Electrical & Traction Motor
bearings. These greases provide long term protection of the rolling elements over a wide temperature
range.
Features & Benefits:
Balmerol Multigrease TM greases provide the following benefits:
Long service life due to the presence of high quality mineral oil and a stable lithium
complex thickener system
Excellent mechanical stability and high temperature capability.
Excellent oxidation stability during service
Superior protection to the rolling elements against rust and wear
ISO VG 100 viscosity of the base fluid satisfies the requirements for grease lubricated
bearings in most electrical motors.
Applications / Recommendations:
Balmerol Multigrease TM 2 & TM 3 greases are suitably designed for most Electrical & Traction
Motors and for bearings requiring sealed for life protection. They are suitable for applications up to 160
o
C.
