What is a Moly grease?
Moly greases are special lubricantsthat contain molybdenum disulphide as solid lubricant additive; these moly lubes form a solid sliding film on metal surfaces that are subjected to high loads and stresses.
What is Moly grease compatible with?
Compatible with all lithium, lithium complex, and calcium type greases • Maintains consistency under shear, and provides lubrication. Extreme pressure and anti-wear additives offer protection to meet fluctuating load conditions.
Is 3 Moly grease good for wheel bearings?
ADVANTAGE LITHIUM COMPLEX 3% MOLY EP GREASE is designed for chassis parts and wheel bearings of construction, mining and other heavy mobile equipment, as well as constant-velocity joints, universal joints, brake self adjusting screws and clutch release bearings on heavy equipment.
What is CV Lith Moly grease used for?
The Comma CV & Lith-Moly Grease is designed for Constant Velocity joints plus many multi-purpose greasing tasks. A lithium based grease of Number 2 (medium) consistency, containing Molybdenum disulphide.
What is Teflon grease?
It is a purely synthetic grease which contains microscopic particles of Teflon, it is fairly light bodied and looks a lot like Vaseline.
What is the thickener in a lubrication grease?
Lubrication grease is a mixture of oil and soap or another thickener. The portion of the grease that determines the compatibility is the thickener. Lithium complex is the thickener that is most compatible with other thickeners.
What is the difference between lubrication grease and lithium complex grease?
Lubrication grease is a mixture of oil and soap or another thickener. The portion of the grease that determines the compatibility is the thickener. Lithium complex is the thickener that is most compatible with other thickeners. There are only a few other thickeners that are not compatible with lithium complex, when using one of the Graco greases.
Why is Moly grease used in greases?
There are a few different explanations for why Moly is used in greases. Some say this is to coat the moving parts in a bearing and protect them when they run out of grease, which would prevent wear. Others say that the Moly actually coats abrasive contaminants to prevent them from scoring the moving surfaces inside of the bearing.
