Where are multi-purpose lubricants used?

Multi-purpose grease is used on a wide range of applications, across almost every industry. 

Applications where multi-purpose grease can be used include:

  • Agricultural equipment
  • Conveyors
  • Electric motors
  • Fans
  • Wheel bearings
  • And many more

 

Types of Multi-Purpose Grease:

  1. Lithium Grease: One of the most common types, known for its good temperature stability, water resistance, and mechanical stability.
  2. Calcium Grease: Offers excellent water resistance and is often used in marine applications.
  3. Polyurea Grease: Known for its high-temperature stability and long service life, often used in electric motor bearings.
  4. Synthetic Grease: Made from synthetic base oils, providing superior performance in extreme temperatures and conditions

 

The differences between multi-purpose grease and bearing grease

Whilst multi-purpose grease and bearing grease are largely interchangeable terms, there are some fundamental differences in their formulas and usage. Multi-purpose grease represents a generalist formula, applicable to a wide range of machinery, helping to improve workflows and extend machine lifespans. 

Bearing grease contrasts this, representing a more specialist formula, designed to withstand the high temperatures which bearings within high-pressure machinery can be placed under. 

 

Where to use bearing grease

Unlike multi-purpose grease, bearing grease is a formula designed for usage specifically within high-temperature conditions. Bearing grease is formulated to act under high-pressure and heat situations, meaning in machinery where multi-purpose grease is liable to thinning due to heat, bearing grease should be deployed to ensure smooth workflows.
