PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL GH
Series Heavy Duty EP Grease is
composed of synthetic base oils and
lithium-complex thickeners that
provides the film strength, shear
resistance, and mechanical stability
critical to high load protection.
This combination excels in high and
low operating temperature ranges by
providing excellent oxidation
stability, high temperature dropping
points and good low temperature
torque values and pumping
capabilities. AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP
Grease is compounded with oxidation
and corrosion inhibitors, effective
oil soluble EP additives and
molybdenum disulfide (moly) solid EP
additives for all around protection
in severe conditions.
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP Grease is
formulated with a top performing
lithium complex thickener system
that provides excellent water
resistance as identified by the ASTM
D-1264 water washout test. AMSOIL
Heavy Duty EP Grease adheres to
metal and is shear stable during
severe mechanical activity,
maintaining consistency and
providing superior lubrication
protection.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
AMSOIL Heavy
Duty EP Grease in grade #1 is
recommended for use in manual or
automatic lubricating systems. NLGI
#1 (GHB) grease has better mobility
and is the preferred choice for
colder applications, automatic
lubrication systems with long
pumping runs and other applications
(where recommended by manufacturer).
The
correct consistency grade of AMSOIL
Heavy Duty EP Grease is recommended
for use in heavy and light duty
applications found in manufacturing
plants, automotive applications,
agricultural equipment and
construction equipment. These
include, but are not limited to,
roller bearings, plain bearings,
gears, bushings, wheel bearings,
chassis lubrication, universal
joints, ball joints, tie-rod ends,
steering knuckles, and heavily
loaded pivot pins on mining and off
road equipment such as power
shovels, draglines, wheel and back
hoe loaders, excavators and
bulldozers. AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP
Greases are suitable for use up to
325º F. When operating at elevated
temperatures, frequent regreasing
may be required.
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP #1 and
#2 Greases are compatible with
many other types of grease. However,
it is recommended that when changing
greases, the equipment be cleaned of
the old grease when possible or
flushed with a liberal amount of
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP Grease while
the mechanism is in operation.
Closely monitor the system for any
inconsistencies. Any grease
compatibility questions should be
referred to your AMSOIL
representative or AMSOIL INC.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment
is important when equipment greasing
is performed. Wipe grease fittings
clean prior to injecting grease to
prevent contaminant ingestion.
Maintain bearing housings one-third
to one-half full of grease. Do not
over-grease as excessive heat
buildup can result. Supplement
standard grease maintenance by
periodically cleaning and packing
housings with fresh grease on an
established maintenance schedule.
