Manufacturer's description

The eni Grease LCX products are top-tier greases, formulated to meet the most severe lubrication demands across several industries: wind power, metallurgy, cement plants, paper machines and glassworks. eni Grease LCX 1.5/460 is an EP grease of NLGI 1.5 consistency, formulated with a special ISO VG 460 synthetic base oil. It is recommended in particular for lubricating gears running at low speeds and high loads, in wet environments and at high temperatures, as in the steel and papermaking industries. It is also recommended for the yaw and pitch bearings of wind turbines and for tunnel boring machines (TBM). Recommended temperature range: -40 °C / +180 °C.

Applications

• Eni Grease LCX 1.5/460 is a lithium complex grease, formulated with synthetic base oil of viscosity ISO VG 460 that allow the grease to operate at very low temperatures. The particular combination of anti-wear, EP, anticorrosive and anti-oxidant additives guarantees excellent performance in severe operating conditions such as high loads and in presence of vibrations. In addition, the synthetic base gives a high thermal and oxidative stability over time, allowing a reduction of downtime cases and maintenance costs. Eni Grease LCX 1.5/460 is specifically indicated for slow reducers operating in humid environments, with high loads and high temperatures such as used in steel, paper and glass industries and in the lubrication of the main shaft bearings and the bearings which regulate the propeller pitch and the swinging of the wind blades. Eni Grease LCX 1.5/460 is suitable for the lubrication of excavating machines and TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine).

Performance & benefits

• Suitable for applications at high and low temperature thanks to the nature of the synthetic base and the very high dropping point
• Extension of service life and relubrication intervals, even in the presence of strong mechanical and thermal stresses
• Excellent adhesiveness and resistance to water washout. Can be used in humid environments and in the presence of water
• Good loads resistance
• High anti-rust and anti-corrosion protection and compatibility with all types of metals both ferrous and non-ferrous

Standards & approvals

• DIN 51825 KPHC1,5R-40

  Lubricating grease KPHC1,5R-40 — DIN 51825

  A DIN 51825 grease designation: consistency, thickener/EP-additive letters and lowest service temperature are coded in "KPHC1,5R-40" (P = EP additives, F = solid additives, HC = special base oil, the digit is the NLGI grade, the following letter the upper temperature range, the final figure the lower service-temperature limit).

• ISO 12924 L-XDFHB 1,5

  Grease classification L-XDFHB 1,5 — ISO 12924

  An ISO 12924 grease code: "X" marks a grease, the following letters give the lowest/highest service temperature, water resistance and EP performance, and the trailing figure is the NLGI consistency grade.
