WHI-NOVAEP2-10 WHITMORES Novagard EP2 Lubricating Grease (10 Pack of 14 oz. Tubes)
Whitmore's Novagard® extreme pressure aluminum complex base grease can be used in a variety of grease-lubricated mining applications. Because of its excellent water resistance, wide operating temperature range, extreme pressure and antiwear characteristics, users have found that Novagard® can replace several previously stocked greases. This aids in reducing inventories and lessening the chance of misapplication.
Novagard® contains MoS2 and graphite to provide solid film lubrication which plates out on lubricated components to virtually eliminate metal-to-metal contact, even under severe shock loading conditions. Since it is available in four grades, including one formulated to be used at -45°F (-43°C), it is easily applied, both manually or by automatic systems, in virtually all ambient temperatures. With a dropping point in excess of 425°F (218°C), Novagard® also provides protection in many elevated temperature applications. This wide operating range allows operators to use a single grade of Novagard® under varying weather conditions.
Many equipment applications experience stop and go conditions or reversing direction. This tends to shear down conventional greases, necessitating frequent re-lubrication, and may shorten bearing life. Novagard® has excellent mechanical stability which allows it to retain its original structure and consistency, even when worked very hard for extended periods under varying loads and speeds.
