Our range of greases

Choosing the right lubricating grease is essential. Using grease for the wrong reason can lead to extreme wear and ultimately, to high costs. Choosing the right lubricating grease can mean the difference between a replacement and a repair. Eurol has a wide range of lubricating greases for a wide range of applications, from our Specialty greases with SYNGIS Technology to general-purpose EP2 grease.

Differences between lubricating greases

Thickness of the lubricating grease

The differences between lubricating greases are dictated by factors such as the thickness of the grease. This is referred to as the NLGI class. Thicknesses are specified as a number from 0 to 3, with an NLGI 0 grease being thinner than an NLGI 2 grease. Central lubrication systems require a thinner grease for easier pumping, which could be an NLGI 00 or even an NLGI 000 grease. These greases are thinner and sometimes appear liquid in consistency.

Make-up of the grease

Aside from the thickness of the grease, greases also differ in terms of their make-up. A lubricating grease consists of a thickener, basic fluid, and additives. The thickener determines the structure of the grease. Examples of thickeners include lithium, calcium, calcium sulphonate, and aluminium. The different structures relate to factors such as temperature, mechanical stability, and resistance to water.
