Regular application of lubricant to lubrication points that<br />
are not connected to an automatic lubrication system<br />
prevents unpleasant surprises.<br />
with a <strong>high</strong> solid lubricant content gives the <strong>tech</strong>nical<br />
grease the following benefits:<br />
• Extreme pressure resistance<br />
(four-ball tester welding load >6000)<br />
• Outstanding emergency running properties<br />
• Good protection against corrosion and oxidation<br />
• Wide range of operating temperatures<br />
• Good water resistance<br />
• High fulling stability<br />
A WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS<br />
GREASE 219 is suitable for lubricating heavily loaded<br />
roller and slide bearings as well as sprocket gears and any<br />
lubrication points that require <strong>high</strong> pressure resistance.<br />
It is ideal for use in automatic lubrication systems. The<br />
grease can also be applied manually with a grease gun.<br />
With an operating temperature range of –20 to +150 °C<br />
(or even +200 °C for short periods), this grease can withstand<br />
almost any climatic challenge.<br />
FOR LIEBHERR AND OTHERS<br />
The new MOTOREX GREASE 219 can be used in Liebherr<br />
machines in place of the manufacturer’s recommended<br />
MOTOREX MAGAZINE I DECEMBER 2010<br />
GREASE 219 is available in 400g cartridges and 17kg containers<br />
and can be easily loaded into mobile greasing systems.<br />
The four-ball apparatus is used to test the lubricant’s<br />
pressure resistance up to the point at which the balls<br />
weld together.<br />
grease 9900. The new product also meets the specifica-<br />
tions of other major construction equipment and vehicle<br />
manufacturers such as Caterpillar, Komatsu, Akerman-<br />
Volvo, O&K, Volvo and Scania. GREASE 219 is an NLGI<br />
Class 2 product and meets the strict KPF 2 P-20 specifications<br />
under DIN 51502.<br />
“This grease can withstand almost<br />
any climatic challenge”<br />
DETERMINING WELDING LOAD<br />
Welding load is tested using a four-ball extreme pressure<br />
(EP) testing device. The grease is tested in a four-ball system<br />
consisting of one rotating ball in contact with three identical<br />
stationary balls. Test loads are gradually increased until<br />
the four-ball system welds together (see photo above).<br />
Torque or friction torque can also be measured. At the end<br />
of the test, the weld point of the lubricant is calculated.<br />
MOTOREX’s new GREASE 219 has added a new heavyduty<br />
option to the company’s range of <strong>tech</strong>nical greases. •<br />
