Water-Washout and Sprayoff Protection
The superior wet-duty performance of AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease is formulated with extra durable cohesive and adhesive chemistry. It holds together when exposed to water and clings tenaciously to metal surfaces when wet, protecting components during prolonged exposure to standing or pressurized water.
Corrosion Protection
Frequent or prolonged water contact can increase corrosion, resulting in damage to metal surfaces and compromised components. AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease seals metal surfaces and chemically fights corrosion, making it ideal for applications with extensive exposure to water, mud, snow or ice.
Load-Carrying and Extreme-Pressure Performance
AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease protects components from metal-to-metal contact even under heavy loads. Its extreme-pressure additives protect against sustained or sudden extreme loads for dependable protection against wear.
Application Recommendation
AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease meets the requirements of the HPM core specification and is enhanced with the WR (Water Resistance) tag set by the National Lubrication Grease Institute (NLGI) for wheel-bearing (GC) and chassis applications (LB). It may be used in automotive wheel bearings, chassis or other applications for which an NLGI #2 GC or LB grease is recommended and exposure to water, humidity or other high-moisture conditions is common.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is important when greasing equipment. Wipe grease fittings clean prior to injecting grease to prevent contaminant ingestion. Maintain bearing housings one-third to one-half full of grease. Do not over-grease, as excessive heat buildup can result. Supplement standard grease maintenance by cleaning and packing housings with fresh grease on an established maintenance schedule.
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease is compatible with many other types of grease; however, it is recommended that, when changing greases, the equipment be cleaned of the old grease when possible or flushed with a liberal amount of AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease while the mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for any inconsistencies. Grease compatibility questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL INC.
PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease is available in 14-oz. cartridges, 35-lb. lugs and 120-lb. kegs.
