Applications N/A
  • Developed to lubricate food machinery in high-temperature applications where incidental contact with food is possible.
  • They are recommended for sleeve and rolling bearings in overhead conveyors and other material handling equipment.
  • May be applied manually or with automatic dispensing equipment.
  • Lighter consistency GR 823-0 grease can be used in gear cases where a non-channeling slump grease is needed to control leakage.
  • Temperature application range: - 30°C up to – 120°C
N/A Optileb GR 823 greases should not be mixed with greases using a different thickener. Lubrication intervals should be increased gradually to ensure complete removal of previous lubricant. At higher temperatures (above 100°C) relubrication intervals should be established by inspection. N/A Optileb GR 823 greases should not be mixed with greases using a different thickener.

Operating Temperature Range N/A -22 to 248 ºF
Features and Benefits N/A
  • H1 lubricants acceptable for use where incidental contact with food is possible.
  • Very high melting point and non-drip characteristics of this grease minimize product contamination.
  • Unique water resistance provides continuous protection even when equipment is washed down periodically.
  • Physiologically safe (approved by LGA Bayern) - base fluid and all other ingredients used in GR 823 comply with sections 178.3570 and 178.3620 of the FDA guidelines.
