GREASES Alvania* Grease CG – For Couplings Used in Industrial Equipment

7.03

Alvania Grease CG is specially formulated with a lithium soap/polymer thickener, which has excellent resistance to oil separation when subjected to the high centrifugal forces normally found in couplings. Applications: Common grease lubricated couplings include: • Geared Couplings that have internal and external spur gears that mesh within a common rotating hub connecting the shafts • Steel Grid Couplings that have a convoluted band of flexible spring steel physically linking the hubs together • Flexible Chain Couplings that have a roller chain that meshes with a sprocket cut in each mating hub • Alvania Grease CG is suitable for all types of grease lubricated couplings used in industrial equipment • Advanced technology has enabled Alvania Grease CG to perform beyond the normal 6-month change interval. In actual field experience this grease has shown its ability to perform satisfactorily beyond 3 years. This product should be used in all grease couplings, especially in those hard to service or those operating under severe conditions • Because of its high base oil viscosity, Alvania Grease CG is also suitable for use in other industrial applications where the equipment is subject to high water wash, low speeds and heavy or shock loads Advantages: • Resistance to centrifugal separation • Extended re-lubrication frequency • High load carrying capabilities • Resistance to water washout • Stays in place under high speeds • Corrosion and rust protection • Minimizes coupling wear • Minimizes coupling freeze-up • Use at temperatures up to 325°F • One grease for all grease coupling types • Based on ASTM D 1478 and D 4693 torque tests, the minimum recommended bearing lubrication service would be -10°F • For coupling service the minimum usable temperature is not dependent upon ease of pumping or bearing breakaway force. Field service confirms problem-free coupling service at -20°F and below • Actual minimum temperature for coupling service would be below -20°F 112
