Coupling Grease is a high-performance, polymer-containing lithium grease developed for use in grease-lubricated flexible couplings, such as those commonly found in mining equipment, power plants, manufacturing plants and chemical plants. It has exceptional resistance to oil separation when subjected to the
high centrifugal forces typically encountered with medium- and high-speed gear, metallic grid and chain couplings.
Coupling Grease is specifically formulated to the lower (softer) end of the NLGI No. 1 grade to meet most OEM requirements. It is manufactured with high-quality, high-viscosity base oils thickened with lithium 12-hydroxystearate soap. It is fortified with special extreme-pressure (EP) additives, oxidation and corrosion inhibitors and polymers to withstand the centrifugal action in couplings and adhere to the moving parts to provide lubrication, minimize friction and help extend coupling life. It has outstanding performance in the Koppers K36 Centrifugal Oil Separation Test.
