Formulated to adhere to metal parts and stay in place in wet environments, this grease is commonly used in pulp and paper manufacturing and water management facilities.

NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 0 is about the consistency of brown mustard. NLGI 1 is about the consistency of tomato paste. 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. Synthetic-oil-based grease lasts longer than mineral-oil-based grease and generally withstands a wider range of temperatures.

Grease with lithium thickener offers good heat resistance. Grease with aluminum thickener has excellent oxidation resistance. Grease with silica thickener has excellent heat resistance and good oxidation resistance. Grease with calcium sulfonate thickener has good heat resistance and excellent oxidation resistance.

Grease with PTFE has small particles of PTFE that reduce friction and help the grease maintain its lubricity. Grease with moly (molybdenum disulfide) has excellent resistance to wear and can withstand high-load and high-pressure applications. Grease with zinc neutralizes acid and is a good replacement for leaded grease. Grease with boron nitride cures to a semi-dry film that resists corrosion from salt water and won’t wash off.

Grease that cannot be sold to the regions listed are restricted by local chemical regulations and/or product labeling requirements.

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.
