Synthetic Aluminum Complex Food Grade Grease
NLGI #2
USDA H-1
HIGH TEMPERATURE EP
Product Code: GXC
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease is an ultra-premium aluminum complex grease designed for food service and pharmaceutical industry equipment where there is a possibility of incidental contact.
This product provides exceptional performance over a wide temperature operating range of -35°F to 350°F (up to 400°F in intermittent use situations), making it suitable for both hot and cold applications.
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease has excellent extreme pressure capabilities that reduce friction and heat generation and help eliminate metal-to-metal contact in processing equipment.
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease resists water washout which ensures that the grease will stay in place when exposed to water during washing and rinsing. It also resists the harmful effects of water, including rust and corrosion.
Food industry equipment such as preparation, processing and packaging machinery requires special greases that must be both efficient and non-toxic. AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease is designed with non-toxic additives to help keep food and pharmaceuticals safe.
This product is an attractive pure-white color to complement a hygenic atmosphere which is important in food processing and pharmaceutical facilities.
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease is recommended for use in all types of equipment and machinery used to prepare, process, package and produce food and pharmaceuticals in which incidental contact with the lubricant is possible. It also features excellent pumpability for use with automatic lubricating systems.
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food Grade Grease is compatible with lithium complex and anhydrous calcium greases. It is not compatible with Barium Complex, Calcium Stearate, Calcium Complex, Clay, Lithium Stearate, Lithium 12 Hydroxy and conventional Polyurea greases.
