Multi-Purpose Grease
Specify Grade NLGI No. 00, No. 0, No. 1, or No. 2
| Description: |
Blue Max 310 is a smooth, deep blue, lithium complex grease formulated for operations from a minus 40°F but with a dropping point of 500°+F. |
| Composition: |
A high-quality, high-performance lithium complex grease. |
| Performance Characteristics: |
MECHANICAL STABILITY - 310 Blue Max resists thinning or hardening in bearings, thereby minimizing leakage and maintaining extended, long life service.
OXIDATION AND CORROSION PROTECTION - The high level of additive treatment minimizes chemical deterioration over extended periods of storage and service. Protects steel and copper alloy bearings against rust and corrosion.
EXTREME PRESSURE PROTECTION - The EP additives in Blue Max 310 provide effective wear protection for ball and roller bearings at high rpm and under heavy load.
FORMULATION - Superior quality refined lube stocks are combined with a high quality lithium complex thickener and additives under rigid laboratory and process control. Special compounding supplies beneficial anti-friction properties.
TEMPERATURE STABILITY - Blue Max 310 offers excellent low temperature pumpability and high temperature protection.
WATER RESISTANCE - It effectively resists washout and excessive dilution by water, assuring all-weather lubrication.
|
| Applications: |
Blue Max 310 is an extreme pressure (EP) grease. Recommended for extended service in heavy duty equipment, high temp wheel bearings (disc brakes), high speed roller and ball bearings, electric motor bearings, throw out and all general industrial and automotive grease requirements. Blue Max 310 is recommended in soft and semi-fluid grades for extreme cold and for centralized lubrication systems. |
