327 Armor Plate with Moly-D Multipurpose Grease

Specify Grade NLGI No. 1 or No. 2


Description: Armor Plate with Moly-D is a rich green moly grease which provides excellent stability and unsurpassed performance under a wide range of temperatures and operating conditions. Armor Plate grease is entirely unique due to the fact that the moly in it is solubilized which provides superior performance to other greases containing the black solid form of moly, molybdenum disulfide.
Composition: Armor Plate is a non-soap base grease made with a heat resistant organo-clay thickener and a new moly compound which has proven superiority over the more common form of moly which is used in most other moly greases. It also contains EP, rust and corrosion inhibitors and anti-oxidant additives.
Performance Characteristics: Armor Plate is a truly versatile and multipurpose grease for all applications. Its extreme-pressure and anti-wear performance is unsurpassed in all areas of industrial, automotive, farm machinery and other off-road applications.

Moly-D outperforms molysulfide in side-by-side test results, exhibiting superior anti-friction and anti-oxidant properties. It also has excellent thermal stability at extremely high temperatures.

Wear tests show that Armor Plate allows much less wear and gives increased load carrying capability while lowering grease operating temperatures in actual service.

Armor Plate can characteristically be used as a “high temp” lubricant for a wide range of applications where the “non-melt” feature of the grease will prevent loss of the lubricant due to melting where the bases of other greases actually turn to liquid. It is engineered to resist rust, oxidation and corrosion while reducing wear and keeping operating temperatures down. In addition, it has exceptional water resistance and is compounded into a tacky, buttery consistency for excellent adhesion to parts to be lubricated.

Armor Plate is available in both No. 1 and No. 2 NLGI grades. No. 2 has a relatively heavy consistency, but No. 1 has a considerably softer consistency for certain applications such as excellent pumpability at sub-freezing temperatures and automatic lubrication. In extremely cold weather, No. 1 will pump at temperatures as low as -20°F.
