HIGH TEMPERATURE CAPABILITIES

Many applications require the use of a grease which is able to withstan

high temperatures and still carry on its function of lubrication. When

heated, a grease generally becomes softer and flows more readily. At

elevated temperatures, oxidation is more rapid, oil separation (“bleeding”),

increases and the grease’s base oil will evaporate significantly.

A grease’s high temperature capabilities are dependent upon not only the

type of base oils used in its formulation, but also upon the type of

thickener system used.

Schaeffer Mfg’s Aluminum Complex Base and Bentone Base Greases,

because of the use of 100% pure paraffin base oils and/or severely

hydrotreated polyalphaolefin base oils and the use of aluminum complex

base or bentone base thickener systems in their formulation, have the

ability to withstand high temperatures and still carry on its function of

lubrication.
