SKF LGEP 1: High-Viscosity Extreme Pressure Bearing Grease

Product Description

SKF LGEP 1 is a high-viscosity, low-consistency mineral oil-based grease formulated with a lithium-calcium thickener. Designed for large bearings subjected to high loads and low speeds, this grease ensures reliable lubrication even in demanding conditions. Whether you’re maintaining wind turbine main shaft bearings, heavy industrial equipment, or centralized lubrication systems, SKF LGEP 1 delivers extended maintenance intervals while minimizing downtime.

Performance of SKF LGEP 1

1. Excellent Mechanical Stability: SKF LGEP 1 maintains its consistency under varying loads, preventing excessive wear and ensuring long-lasting performance.
2. Protection Against Fretting and Wear: The grease provides very good protection against fretting corrosion and wear, safeguarding critical components.
3. Low Starting Temperature Flow: Even at low temperatures, LGEP 1 flows smoothly, allowing easy replenishment within the bearing design.
4. Low Friction Characteristics: The grease helps maintain low operating temperatures due to its low friction properties.
5. Water Resistance and Corrosion Protection: SKF LGEP 1 exhibits excellent water resistance and guards against corrosion.
