High performance Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease is a wide temperature lubricant designed to extend the service life of bearings when loads are moderate to heavy, temperatures are elevated and speeds are low to moderate. This grease matches the rugged service requirements associated with mills and plants producing engineered woods, primary metals, castings, cement, glass and paper.
The following performance characteristics were emphasized in the development of Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease:
Synthetic base fluid for high-temperature stability and low-temperature mobility;
Optimum viscosity base oil, ISO VG 150, to increase the load carrying capacity;
Temperature stability to withstand elevated and intermittently high temperatures (dropping point over 260°C/500°F)
Shear stability to match the anticipated service life of precision anti-friction bearings.
Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease is part of Castrol Performance Lubricants’ Eco-SolutionsTM product offering. Formulated to address environmental concerns, it is free of lead, chlorinated solvents, barium, molybdenum and antimony.
Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease meets NLGI Consistency Grade No. 1. The load-carrying and antiwear capabilities of Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease exceeds conventional complex greases. High performance is the result of chemical additives working synergistically with the synthetic base fluids.
Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease can maintain a high degree of mobility in the work zone of a bearing for its anticipated service life without losing its original consistency. This critical physical property is due to the use of a highly stable, advanced lithium complex thickening system and special manufacturing techniques.
Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease is formulated from premium synthetic base oils.
Premium components in the balanced additive package provide excellent oxidation resistance for very long service life at elevated temperatures.
Applications: Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease should be used when loads are moderate to heavy, temperatures are elevated (up to 232°C/450°F), and speeds are slow to moderate. Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease can be used in anti-friction bearings, bushings and couplings. In addition, the combination of synthetic base fluids provides outstanding low-temperature grease mobility.
Establish reapplication intervals by inspection. See Characteristics section for temperatures and speeds.
Primary Metals including Steel—Use Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease near hot ingots, soaking pits, and reheat furnaces to lubricate pit cover carriages, mill stand screws, slipper couplings, roll bearings, manipulators and guide rolls for continuous casters.
Use Castrol Tribol 4541 Wide Temperature Range Grease to lubricate bearings that are exposed to both low and high temperatures. These applications include conveyors exposed to both low winter temperatures and the high temperatures associated with foundry and casting operations.
Paper and Forest Products—Use in areas exposed to high temperatures and/or outside winter temperatures.
