Product Overview
ROCOL?
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 is a heavy duty, high
temperature bearing grease fortified with
molybdenum disulphide. It has been designed for the
effective lubrication and protection of ball, roller and
plain bearings used in extreme environments.
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 combines the resilience of a
clay thickener with the addition of molybdenum
disulphide ensuring that a lubricating film exists
under the most extreme loadings where the grease
film can be squeezed out.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent high temperature resistance -
operating from -10 degreesC to +235 degreesC.
- Non-melting, organically modified clay (Bentone)
thickened, grease, fortified with molybdenum
disulphide, for excellent high temperature and
water resistance.
- Molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) has an affinity to
metal surfaces leaving a tenacious high load
carrying film with a low coefficient of friction. This
film provides an extremely durable layer,
reducing frictional heat and wear and extending
component life and lubrication intervals.
- Ideal for highly loaded applications, where shock
loads and vibration can occur.
- Highly resistant to oxidation, providing extended
lubrication intervals over conventional lubricants.
- Excellent corrosion resistance to protect in
humid, damp and even wet conditions.
- Highly tenacious lubricants, with outstanding film
strength, ensure the lubricants remain in place
even in severe operating conditions.
- SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 maintains its integrity in
extreme conditions and continues to protect over
extended lubrication intervals, reducing
equipment failure, downtime and lubricant usage.
Directions for Storage and Use
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 can be applied manually,
by grease gun, keg pump or by other methods
suitable for dispensing NLGI No. 2 greases with
solid additives.
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 is compatible with other
clay thickened greases. However, for best results
the previous lubricant should be removed prior to
application.
- Avoid mixing SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 with soap
thickened greases.
- The storage temperature should be controlled
between +1 degreesC and +40 degreesC.
- Shelf life is 3 years from date of manufacture.
Typical Applications
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 is particularly suitable for high
temperature bearings operating in extreme conditions
such as shock loads, vibration and wet environments.
It is designed for all types of ball, roller and plain
bearings typically found in industries such as
steelworks, quarries, mining, marine, docks,
agriculture, construction, brick and tile works and
other industries particularly where ovens or similar
heavy duty, high temperature applications are found.
SAPPHIRE Extreme 2 excels in applications such as
ovens, furnaces, kiln cars, crushers, screens,
presses, loaders, scrapers, wagons and similar
applications where bearings, pins, bushes, slides etc.
are subjected to extreme conditions.
