Description
Castrol OPTITEMP ™ HT 1 LF is a grease designed for the most extreme loads in constant velocity ball joints. It displays
excellent high and low temperature behavior and due to its special additions provides a reduction of the coherent
friction results in reduced fuel consumption and reduced temperatures in the joints. It is also recommended for the
application with ventilated boots due to extremely low evaporation losses. The compatibility with boots made of
commonly used materials is very good.

• Application in homokinetic ball joints * Vehicles which require fuel economy
* Joints subject to extremely high mechanical and thermal loads
* Application at extreme temperatures (possible down to-45°C/ - 49 ° F):
160°C / 320 ° F permanent temperature application
180°C/356 ° F maximum temperature application
Advantages
* wide temperature range
* long service life
* extremely low coefficients of friction
* very good oxidation stability
* optimal boot compatibility with CR and Hytrel
* fuel economy (in extreme cases up to 0.15 l / 100 km) compared to Castrol mineral CVJ grease
* lowering of joint temperatures generated by friction
