Description
Castrol Molub-Alloy 870-2 is a high-performance EP grease developed for large, slow moving and heavily loaded rolling element bearings.
- Pack size: 190 kg drum (manufacturer No. 1466EA)
- Also available as: 52 kg drum
Application
CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 870 was initially designed for rolling element bearings with an outer diameter of 600 to 1000 mm and running at around 5 rpm, such as those used in cane sugar rollers. The outstanding viscosity-temperature behaviour and low pour point of the base oil allow operation down to 0 °C.
Advantages
- The base oils are high viscosity mineral oils forming a stable lube film. Corrosion and oxidation inhibitors maximise effective rust protection and long life of the grease.
- CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 870 heavy duty grease provides an excellent sealing effect against contamination and water.
- Castrol Molub-Alloy® lubricating solids, in conjunction with selected soluble EP additives, interact synergistically to provide additional protection against machinery component wear.
