Hello nthach,
Hello RDMgr,
thank you both for your feedback.
@nthach,
could you please provide some extra info about the brands that specify the bentonite thickener as a gearbox grease? (I imagine it should be NLGI 000 or 00)
@ RDMgr,
thanks for your valuable feedback. Based on your answer, I would assume a good practice to use a clay grease as a priming, run-in and contact pattern check grease in the beginning of the life of an element, then switch to a silicate grease after degreasing. What are your thoughts on this?
Regards,
