Moly EP Synthetic Plus Grease is a multipurpose, extreme pressure wide temperature
range grease that is specially formulated for use in all types of heavy duty automotive,
construction, mining, farming and industrial equipment and electric motor applications that
are being used under the most adverse conditions of excessive pressure, high shock
loading, extreme hot and cold temperatures, and moisture.
Moly EP Plus Grease is compounded from a unique blend of the finest select severely
hydrotreated polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base fluids and high viscosity index paraffin
base oils available. Blended into these para-synthetic base fluids is an aluminum complex
base thickener and selected extreme pressure and rust and oxidation additives. This
formulation provides Moly EP Synthetic Plus Grease with the following outstanding
performance features.
1. Excellent Low Temperature pumpability characteristics at temperatures as
low as -45?F (low temperature pumpability dependent upon NLGI grade
used.
2. A wide temperature application range of -45?F to 350?F.
3. Excellent resistance to water washout.
4. Excellent shear and mechanical stability.
5. Excellent antiwear and extreme pressure load carrying properties.
6. Excellent reversibility. This property allows Moly EP Synthetic Plus Grease
to have the ability to retain its grease-like consistency and remain in the
bearings during periods of heat, high shock loading, extreme pressures,
and severe mechanical action.
7. Excellent rust and oxidation inhibiting characteristics.
8. Excellent resistance to oxidation.
Incorporated into this blend of para-synthetic base fluids, aluminum complex thickener and
selected additives is Molybdenum Disulfide. The molybdenum disulfide provides Moly EP
Synthetic Plus Grease with the ability to act as a “backstop” lubricant when the grease
base is either destroyed or wiped away due to unexpected loads, start-up or other
conditions which exceed the capabilities of the grease base’s fluid film lubrication. This
“backstop” is created by the molybdenum disulfide’s natural affinity for metal surfaces.
This natural affinity for metal surfaces allows the molybdenum disulfide and solid lubricant
package to plate itself to these surfaces in order to form a long lasting solid lubricant film.
This solid lubricant film will withstand pressures up to 500,000 pounds per square inch,
giving the metal surfaces of the bearings the protection they need during periods of high
speed, high shock loads and extreme pressure.
The Moly’s solid lubricant film also helps to reduce friction. This reduction in friction results
in reduced wear and a reduction in contact area temperature. This in turn leads to
increased equipment life, less downtime and extended lubrication cycles.
Moly EP Synthetic Plus Grease also has excellent adhesive properties. Because of these
excellent adhesive properties, Moly EP Synthetic Plus Grease will not wash out, pound
out, splatter or squeeze out under the heaviest load or vibrations.
