SKF LGLS 2 is a high viscosity grease that has been developed to be used ideally via lubrication systems under medium to high ambient temperatures. Its anhydrous calcium thickener, combined with a high base oil viscosity, offers excellent water resistance and stickiness to surfaces as well as very good anti-wear properties.
• Excellent pumpability at medium to high ambient temperatures
• Excellent water resistance and corrosion protection • Excellent anti-wear properties • Excellent adhesion to surfaces
Typical applications • Construction equipment • Heavy duty off-road applications such as excavators, wheel loaders, etc • Forestry and agricultural equipment such as forwarders and harvesters • Collector trucks • Chassis • Harbour equipment • Marine • Wire rope lubrication • Joints • Slow plain bearings

Advanced tool for grease selection and relubrication calculation
LubeSelect for SKF greases Selecting a suitable grease for a particular bearing is a crucial step if the bearing is to meet design expectations in its application. SKF knowledge about bearing lubrication has been encapsulated into a computer program that can be consulted at skf.com/lubeselect
LubeSelect for SKF greases provides you a user friendly tool to select the right grease and suggest frequency and quantity, while taking into account the particular conditions of your application. General guidelines for typical greases for different applications are also available.
