CASTROL Spheerol HTM 1

Description

Spheerol™ HTM 1 is a NLGI 1, clay-thickened grease fortified with Molybdenum disulphide. It is primarily intended for the

lubrication of plain and rolling element bearings operating at low speed and high temperature or under cycling conditions

from ambient to high temperatures. It is based on a high quality, high viscosity mineral oil and is formulated to provide low

volatility and high resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, resistance to water washout and good antiwear

performance under heavy loads and low speeds. The Molybdenum disulphide in Spheerol HTM 1 makes it particularly

suitable for the lubrication of cams, ways and other sliding machine elements subjected to fretting or shock loading.

Application

Spheerol HTM 1 is recommended for the lubrication of plain and rolling element bearings in applications such as oven

conveyor or kiln bearings operating at low speeds and high temperatures or under cycling conditions from ambient to high

temperatures. The grease will not soften and leak under high temperature conditions or harden excessively on cooling. It

is particularly suited to the lubrication of cams, ways and other sliding machine elements subjected to long relubrication

intervals, limited motion or shock loading. The recommended operating temperature range is 0°C/32°F to 170°C/338°F

with appropriate relubrication intervals.

Advantages

• Reduced downtime and maintenance costs due to excellent protection against wear at high temperatures.

• Provides protection against fretting and shock loading.

• Will not soften and leak from bearings.

• Good resistance to water washout and steam.

• Extended intervals between relubrication due to long product life under arduous conditions.
