BALMEROL LICOM 2 GREASE

(Multifunctional High Temperature Grease)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
BALMEROL LICOM 2 Grease is multifunctional high temperature grease formulated with a high dropping point lithium complex soap system and specially developed synergistic additives for lubrication upto 160oC under normal to heavy loads. The complex soap incorporated in the grease enables it to retain its structure even at high temperatures and high loads, thereby reducing leakage and enhancing component life with extension of relubrication intervals. BALMEROL LICOM 2 has excellent shear stability and good surface adhesion. It is non-ageing and is highly resistant to cold and hot water, heat, dust, rust, corrosion and oxidation.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
BALMEROL LICOM 2 is suitable for lubrication of all types of industrial bearings operating under higher than ambient temperature conditions under heavy loads. It is particularly beneficial in high temperature applications where use of conventional greases calls for frequent relubrication. Typical applications include kiln car rollers, hot air fan bearings, electric motor bearings and clutch release bearings in the metallurgical, ceramic, cement and electrical industry. Due to superior load bearing capacity, low coefficient of friction, excellent antiwear properties and better structural stability, BALMEROL LICOM 2 shows considerably better performance as compared to conventional and non-soap greases for high temperature applications. REMARKS BALMEROL LICOM 2 is not compatible with sodium based greases or other conventional greases. Hence, bearings should be thoroughly cleaned before filling BALMEROL LICOM 2 Grease. Only twothird of the bearing needs to be filled for optimum lubrication. AVAILABILITY BALMEROL LICOM 2 is available in 182 kg drums & 18 kg packs.
