High temperature, harsh environment grease

SKF LGED 2 is a synthetic fluorinated oil based grease using a PTFE thickener. It is suitable for extremely high temperature from 180 °C (392 °F) up to 240 °C (464 °F) and/or agressive environments such as acids/alkalis, vacuum, oxygen etc.
- Excellent oxidation resistance
- Very low evaporation losses at high temperature
- Good corrosion resistance
- Long life in aggressive environments such as very reactive areas with a presence of high purity gaseous oxygen and hexane
Typical applications:
- Bakery/brick oven equipment
- Glass industry
- Kiln truck wheels
- Load rollers in copying machines
- Wafer baking equipment
- Textile dryers
- Film streching tenders
- High temperature fans
- Vacuum pumps

Important note:
LGED 2 is a fluorinated grease and is not compatible with other greases, oils and preservatives (except LGET 2). Therefore, very thorough cleaning of bearings and systems is essential before applying fresh grease
