RL-2 AVANIA SHELL TUBE GREASE
Shell Alvania Greases RL may be used under a wide range of operating conditions.
They offer very significant advantages over conventional lithium greases at high temperature or in the presence of water.
Shell Alvania Grease RL2 is a medium consistency grease designed, mainly, for general industrial lubrication. Ideal for centralised lubrication systems operating at normal temperatures.
Applications:
Rolling element and plain grease lubricated bearings
Electric motor bearings
Sealed-for-life bearings
Water pump bearings
Typical Physical Characteristics:
NLGI Consistency 2
Soap TypeLithium hydroxystearate
Base Oil (type) Mineral
Kinematic Viscosity @ 40°C cSt 100°C cSt 100.0 10.2
Cone Penetration Worked @ 25°C 0.1mm (IP 50/ASTM-D217) 265-295
Dropping Point °C (IP 132/ASTM-D566-76) 190
Performance Features:
Reliable high temperature performance-Very good performance up to +130°C, resulting in longer bearing life.
Good oxidation and mechanical stability-Resists the formation of deposits caused by oxidation at high operating temperatures. Shell Alvania Greases RL are extremely stable under vibrations and give NO LEAKAGE even in repeated shock-loaded bearings.
Good corrosion resistance characteristics-Effective protection in hostile environments
Long storage life-Does not alter in consistency during prolonged storage
Re-greasing Intervals
For bearings operating near their maximum recommended temperatures, re-greasing intervals should be reviewed.
Health & Safety
Shell Alvania Greases RL are free of any harmful component and are not subjected to labelling.
They are unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application, and good standards of industrial and personal hygiene are maintained.
