Protect your vehicle's wheel bearings and moving components with Penrite High Temperature Wheel Bearing Grease, a premium high-temperature extreme pressure (EP) grease designed to provide reliable lubrication, superior wear protection and resistance to demanding operating conditions. Formulated using high-quality base oils and a lithium complex soap thickener, it delivers excellent load-carrying performance, helps protect against friction and wear, and maintains reliable lubrication in high-temperature automotive and industrial applications.

Over time, wheel bearings and other moving components can experience increased friction, wear and deterioration caused by high operating temperatures, heavy loads, water exposure and demanding driving conditions. These factors can compromise bearing performance and contribute to premature component failure. Penrite High Temperature Wheel Bearing Grease is formulated with advanced additives and tackifiers to provide strong adhesion, resist water washout and protect against rust and corrosion, including in saltwater environments. Its extreme pressure performance helps protect components against shock loading, while its lithium complex formulation supports reliable lubrication in demanding applications.

Designed for high-temperature wheel bearings, Penrite High Temperature Wheel Bearing Grease is particularly suitable for vehicles fitted with disc brakes, as well as drum brake wheel bearings, boat trailer wheel bearings and other marine applications. It is also suitable for general chassis lubrication, rolling element bearings, plain bearings, medium-speed anti-friction bearings, agricultural machinery, construction equipment and industrial plant applications. With a recommended continuous operating temperature range of -10°C to +170°C and intermittent temperature capability up to 200°C, it provides dependable lubrication when used according to the equipment manufacturer's recommendations.

Note: Always follow the equipment manufacturer's lubrication requirements and confirm compatibility with existing grease before use.

Directions

• Check the vehicle or equipment manufacturer's handbook to confirm the correct grease type and lubrication requirements.
• Ensure the equipment is switched off, safely secured and cool enough to service before beginning maintenance.
• Clean grease nipples, fittings and surrounding surfaces to minimise the risk of introducing dirt or other contaminants.
• Remove old grease where required by the manufacturer's servicing instructions, particularly when changing to a different grease formulation.
• Apply Penrite High Temperature Wheel Bearing Grease using a suitable grease gun or approved application method.
• For wheel bearings, clean and inspect the bearings and races, then pack the bearings thoroughly according to the manufacturer's recommended procedure.
• Apply the correct quantity of grease to each lubrication point. Avoid over-greasing, as excess grease may cause overheating or seal damage in some applications.
• Reassemble components and adjust bearing preload or clearance according to the manufacturer's specifications.
• Inspect lubricated components regularly and replenish grease at the recommended maintenance intervals.
• Store the product in its original sealed container in a clean, dry environment to help prevent contamination.
• Dispose of contaminated grease and servicing waste responsibly in accordance with local requirements.
