What is the best high temp grease?

WD-40 Specialist® High-Temp Grease is a lithium-based grease built to perform in high temperatures and high-friction mechanical loads. It was engineered to meet the demands of protecting high-speed bearings in applications involving high temperatures and heavy mechanical loads.

Where do you use high temperature grease?

High temperature greases are particularly suitable for lubrication of elements such as:

  • roller bearings operating under severe conditions.
  • rolling mill bearings.
  • oven fan bearings.
  • glueing machine roller bearings.
  • hot-mix asphalt stations.
  • crushing and screening equipment.
  • oven racks and furnace hearth rollers.

Is High Temp grease good for bearings?

For high-temperature components, such as wheel bearings, a high-temperature silicone-based grease is required. These greases are designed to hold stable under high temps and against the elements commonly seen in wheel bearings.

What color is high temp grease?

red
Although there is no hard and fast rule, red could be indicative of grease for high temperatures, blue for cold temperatures and green for environment friendliness.

Does the color of grease mean anything?

One thing we are sure of, however – color does not denote a particular type of grease, whether it is red, green, blue or yellow. The color is simply a dye added by manufacturers for marketing purposes, to more easily distinguish the different greases in their product lines.

What is the best lubricant for bearings and explain why?

Oils are the preferred lubricant in open bearing designs or when low torque or high speeds are the priority during bearing operation. “This is due to the relatively lower viscosities as compared to greases. Oil lubrication allows for more efficient movement of the ball through the lubricant, as compared to greases.”

Is lithium grease good for trailer bearings?

MultiPurpose Grease Typically lithium-based, it’s usually not water-resistant or waterproof, nor is it rated for use in bearing applications. While it would work in a pinch for boat-trailer bearings, it’s not the best grease for this application. White lithium grease is a popular multi-purpose grease.
