About Grease Gun Components

Use this general purpose grease to lubricate most machinery.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.

Mineral-oil-based grease, derived from petroleum, is usually more economical than synthetic-oil-based grease.

Grease with lithium thickener offers good heat and moisture resistance.

Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.

Synthetic Engine Oil

With better heat and oxidation resistance than mineral oil, synthetic oil lasts longer, reducing the frequency of changes. Primarily for use in automotive applications, this oil also works well in machinery.

Viscosity is the thickness of an oil. The higher the grade, the thicker the oil, and the less it flows.
