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 />
