RENOLIT EP 1 and RENOLIT EP 2 greases are multi-purpose lubricants suitable for use in high pressure greasing equipment. Their pumpability ensures regular and easy flow through the fine bore pipes used in automatic systems. RENOLIT EP 2 may be used as a general industrial and automotive lubricant. It can be used for product rationalisation for many applications. RENOLIT EP 2 Complies with British Timken Recommendations 2891 RENOLIT EP 0 grease will provide for an efficient level of pumpability in small bore systems, which means that even when the point of application is remote from the motive source there will be no significant pressure differential to overcome. This factor is critical when selecting the correct lubricant to be supplied via conventional and modern automatic lubrication systems.
RENOLIT EP 00 is a semi-fluid grease also recommended for automatic greasing units and as an alternative to industrial gear oils to prevent leakage. RENOLIT EP 000 is a semi-fluid grease recommended for the lubrication of commercial vehicles and plant served by automatic greasing units. It may also be recommended as an alternative to industrial gear oils in enclosed gearboxes where high leakage rates are experienced.

Note:
RENOLIT EP GREASES are available in five NLGI consistencies 000, 00, 0,1 and 2. The structure of the products is based upon a conventional lithium metallic soap, which will ensure compatibility with other lithium greases of a similar nature. RENOLIT EP GREASES contain extreme pressure, anti-rust and anti-oxidation additives.
Shelf Life:
The minimum shelf life is 36 months if the product is properly stored between 0ºC and 40ºC in its unopened original container in a dry place. The indication of a minimum shelf life does not include any guarantee of durability.
