ITR CALCIUM GREASE (MP2 & MP3) is a high-quality Calcium soap-based grease with graphite, a natural solid lubricant. The lubricant is high-performance and meets NLGI 3,2 consistency. 

Calcium grease is water-resistant and has mechanical stability. The solid lubricant provides extended lubricant coverage to minimize the wear of friction surfaces.

What is MP2 Grease?

MP means multipurpose. MP2 grease is the number two grease of the National Lubrication Grease Institute (NLGI). The lubricant is recommended for light transport, agriculture, and automotive applications. The oil is applied to steering linkage joints and chassis applications. 

MP2 grease has a smooth structure, hence easily pumpable, effective in diverse temperatures, and has a stable composition to withstand extreme hot and cold seasons. The lubricant provides wash-proof protection from elements while preventing wear from friction. 

EP1 Vs EP2 Grease Differences

EP means extreme pressure. The lubricant is made with extreme pressure additives and mineral base oils to ensure durability, stability, adhesiveness, and other required protection. 

Lithium EP grease is made for different machinery and equipment. EP1 is most suited for extreme-pressure gears and centralized systems operating at a baseline temperature. EP2 and EP3 are suitable for general industrial lubrication and heavy-duty bearings.

Tips to Help You Select the Right Grease

It is essential to select the grease to suit your application and operating conditions. Beyond that, check these characteristics;

Base oil type

Base oil type is considered based on the conditions under which you will apply the grease. Factors such as temperature, pressure, and load are essential considerations. Synthetic oils perform better in varied conditions and temperatures, whereas mineral base oils operate better in stable operating temperatures. 

Base oil viscosity

Base oil viscosity is a crucial component of any lubricant. Understanding the lubricant’s base oil viscosity is essential to select the proper grease suitable and applicable for your use. Ordinarily, general-purpose grease should have an ISO 460 viscosity or higher.  

Thickener Type in Use 

Thickener is the lubricating component of the grease and holds the lubricant together. Select a thickener compatible with your machinery and conducive to the ambient temperature.
