High-Speed Bearing Grease
Also known as spindle grease, use this in machine tools and other high-speed applications.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
Grease with lithium thickener offers good heat and moisture resistance. Grease with PTFE thickener has good heat, moisture, and oxidation resistance. Grease with barium thickener has good heat resistance and excellent moisture resistance.
Grease with PTFE has small particles of PTFE that reduce friction and help the grease maintain its lubricity. Grease with zinc neutralizes acid and is a good replacement for leaded grease.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.

Electric Motor Bearing Grease
Able to handle light to moderate loads at high speeds, this grease is often used on electric motor bearings for fans, pumps, and dryers.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
Mineral-oil-based grease, derived from petroleum, is more economical than synthetic-oil-based grease. Synthetic-oil-based grease lasts longer than mineral-oil-based grease and withstands a wider range of temperatures.
Grease with lithium thickener offers good heat and moisture resistance. Grease with polyurea thickener has excellent heat resistance and good moisture and oxidation resistance.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Wire Rope and Cable Grease
Penetrate to the core of wire rope, preventing rust and reducing wear between strands. This grease has excellent corrosion resistance and is suitable for use in marine environments. It is thick to stay in place at high wire rope travel speeds.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 3 is about the consistency of vegetable shortening.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.

Open Gear and Chain Grease
Tackier than gear box grease, this grease sticks to open gears and roller chain. It resists moisture for corrosion protection and can lubricate under heavy loads.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste.
Mineral-oil-based grease, derived from petroleum, is more economical than synthetic-oil-based grease.
