Description
Petro-Canada?s Thermex grease is a premium specialty grease formulated to provide long bearing life in moderately loaded, high temperature applications of 260?C (500?F) or greater. The base oil component in Thermex Grease is made from synthetic API Group V, polyalkylene glycol (PAG) fluid, known for its deposit control and lubricating properties at elevated temperatures. The silica gel thickener utilized in Thermex Grease is stable in very high temperature applications. When subjected to extremely high temperatures, the base fluid in Thermex Grease will slowly vaporize leaving little or no deposit. Conventional soap thickened greases with petroleum or synthetic poly-alpha-olefin (PAO) base oils will have tendency to melt and/or form hard carbonaceous residues at elevated temperatures, which greatly reduces bearing life, increases maintenance costs and reduces productivity.
