About
SKF LGEP 1 is a high viscosity, low consistency mineral oil based grease, using a lithium-calcium thickener. It is extremely suitable for the lubrication of large bearings subjected to high loads and low speeds. LGEP 1 has been developed to deliver extended maintenance intervals while minimizing downtime.
Features & benefits
- Excellent mechanical stability
- Very good protection against fretting and wear
- Good flow at low starting temperature
- Good flow properties that enable easy replenishment within the bearing design
- Low friction characteristics that help to maintain low operating temperatures
- Excellent water resistance and corrosion protection
- Good pumpability
Typical applications
- Wind turbine main shaft bearings
- Large bearing applications
- Heavy industrial applications
- Centralized lubrication systems
