PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic
Multi-Purpose
Grease grade #2
is recommended
in manual or
automatic
lubricating
systems.
NLGI #2 (GLC) is
the preferred
choice for
medium to high
ambient
temperatures,
sleeve type
bushings, high
shock loading
environments,
wet environments
and wheel
bearings and
other automotive
applications.
The correct
consistency
grade of AMSOIL
Synthetic
Multi-Purpose
Grease is
recommended in
heavy and light
duty
applications
found in
manufacturing
plants,
automobiles,
agricultural and
construction
equipment.
These include,
but are not
limited to,
roller bearings,
plain bearings,
thrust bearings,
gears, electric
motors, presses,
winches,
bushings, wheel
bearings,
chassis
lubrication,
universal
joints, ball
joints, tie-rod
ends, and
steering
knuckles. AMSOIL
Synthetic
Multi-Purpose
Greases are
suitable for use
up to 350
degrees F. When
operating at
elevated
temperatures,
frequent
regreasing may
be required.
AMSOIL Synthetic
Multi-Purpose
Greases are
compatible with
many other types
of greases.
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 Multi-Purpose
Grease while the
mechanism is in
operation.
Closely monitor
the system for
any
inconsistencies.

APPLICATION
MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a
clean work
environment is
important when
equipment
greasing is
performed. Wipe
grease fitting
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.
