Grease is a solid or semisolid lubricant formed as a dispersion of thickening agents in a liquid lubricant. Grease generally consists of a soap emulsified with mineral or vegetable oil.
A common feature of greases is that they possess a high initial viscosity, which upon the application of shear, drops to give the effect of an oil-lubricated bearing of approximately the same viscosity as the base oil used in the grease. This change in viscosity is called shear thinning.
We have different types of Greases:
- Calcium Grease
- Lithium Grease
- Lithium complex Greases
- High Temperature Grease
- Long Life Grease
- Titanium 222 Grease
