STARPLEX EP
DESCRIPTION
Starplex EP is a top-quality series of multipurpose greases designed especially for ball and roller bearings used in high temperatures. They are manufactured using highly refined, select high viscosity index base oils, and a lithium complex soap resistant to high temperatures. Moreover, they contain highly-efficient EP-type additives which guarantee grease durability, even in extreme operating conditions. Starplex EP is lead-free.
BENEFITS
Starplex EP ensure a series of enhancements in comparison to conventional lithium greases. Thanks to their excellent anti-corrosive qualities and oxidation resistance, they may be used for lubricating rolling bearings exposed to high temperature loads with long service intervals. Starplex EP operate effectively over a wide temperature range. Starplex EP greases are very shear stable, retain their original consistency while working thanks to uniform, outstanding film strength and adhesive properties.
They protect against rust and corrosion, as well as resist water washing. Excellent sealing qualities allow Starplex EP protect friction pairs from dust, dirt and water. Starplex EP is characterized high mechanical stability. As a result, Texaco Starplex greases are particularly effective in providing low wear in shock load service. Starplex EP are classified as high-temperature greases offering working temperature range from -35°C to +140°C, and in the case of continuous grease flow (central lubrication systems) up to +220°C. °C.
APPLICATION
Starplex EP are recommended for lubricating elements exposed to high temperature and mechanical loads.
General use in bearings of vehicle wheels, generators, clutch thrust bearings, engine fan bearings, rollers in driers, papermaking machines, washing machines and dishwashers, household appliances, etc.
Starplex EP were subject to a wide range of performance tests which proved their exceptional functional properties when used in heavy duty industrial equipment operating under adverse conditions - high and low temperatures, heavy, continuous and shock loads, high speeds, and where contamination with water can occur. Its outstanding functional properties they may replace traditional lithium-, sodium- and calcium-based greases, as well as aluminum and calcium complex ones.
