GH Series Heavy-Duty EP Grease
NLGI #1, GC/LB
Extreme-pressure, moly-fortified. Provides outstanding protection
for four wheel drive steering knuckles, spring shackles, heavy equipment
pivot joints and other components operating in high-load, low-speed
conditions. NLGI #1 is preferred for cold temperatures and auto pumping
systems. Offers excellent water washout resistance.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL GH Series Heavy Duty EP Grease is composed of synthetic
base oils and lithium-complex thickeners that provides the film
strength, shear resistance, and mechanical stability critical to high
load protection. This combination excels in high and low operating
temperature ranges by providing excellent oxidation stability, high
temperature dropping points and good low temperature torque values and
pumping capabilities. AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP Grease is compounded with
oxidation and corrosion inhibitors, effective oil soluble EP additives
and molybdenum disulfide (moly) solid EP additives for all around
protection in severe conditions.
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP Grease is formulated with a top performing
lithium complex thickener system that provides excellent water
resistance as identified by the ASTM D-1264 water washout test. AMSOIL
Heavy Duty EP Grease adheres to metal and is shear stable during severe
mechanical activity, maintaining consistency and providing superior
lubrication protection.
PERFORMANCE FEATURES
- Moly Fortified for added EP protection
- Adhesive and Shear Stable - prevents squeeze out
- High dropping point (exceeds 500ºF)
- Excellent water-washout resistance
- Oxidation and corrosion inhibited
APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP Grease in grade #1 is recommended for use in
manual or automatic lubricating systems. NLGI #1 (GHB) grease has better
mobility and is the preferred choice for colder applications, automatic
lubrication systems with long pumping runs and other applications (where
recommended by manufacturer).
The correct consistency grade of AMSOIL Heavy
Duty EP Grease is recommended for use in heavy
and light duty applications found in
manufacturing plants, automotive applications,
agricultural equipment and construction
equipment. These include, but are not limited
to, roller bearings, plain bearings, gears,
bushings, wheel bearings, chassis lubrication,
universal joints, ball joints, tie-rod ends,
steering knuckles, and heavily loaded pivot pins
on mining and off road equipment such as power
shovels, draglines, wheel and back hoe loaders,
excavators and bulldozers. AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP
Greases are suitable for use up to 325º F. When
operating at elevated temperatures, frequent regreasing may be required.
AMSOIL Heavy Duty EP #1 and
#2
Greases are compatible with many other types of grease. 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 AMSOIL
Heavy Duty EP Grease while the mechanism is in operation. Closely
monitor the system for any inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility
questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL
INC.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is important when
equipment greasing is performed. Wipe grease fittings 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.
AMSOIL PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
AMSOIL GH Series Greases are available in 14-oz. cartridges,
35-lb. pails, 120-lb. kegs and 400-lb. drums.

AMSOIL
is the undisputed leader in synthetics.............
Since 1972,
AMSOIL Synthetics have
proven to be the BEST.
AMSOIL also engineers and manufactures Ea Oil Filters
with Nanofiber Technology which have a 25,000 mile/1-year
service life as well as specialized filtration systems for
commercial and fleet applications in cars and light, medium and
heavy trucks which can filter particles down to less than one
micron (a standard full flow oil filter can only filter to 20-25
microns, and at a reduced efficiency) making oil changes
virtually unnecessary and virtually eliminating engine wear.
These filters have been proven by millions of miles of over-the
road trucks, construction equipment and fleet service.
-

automotive and truck manufacturers.
-
Provides up to two-times the wear
protection of other motor oils.
-
Increases the life of your vehicle.
-
Improves performance, fuel economy
and efficiency.
-
