EP000 (NLGI 000) grease is a semi-fluid, highly pumpable lubricant specifically designed for applications where standard solid greases are too thick and liquid oils might leak. It features "Extreme Pressure" (EP) additives to protect machinery subjected to heavy shock loads, vibrations, and high mechanical stress

Grease is a solid or semi-solid lubricant composed of a liquid lubricant (like oil) and a thickening agent, often a soap, used to reduce friction and wear in machinery and other applications

Zolton Grease (often marketed under the brand Zalton) is not a single product but a range of semi-solid lubricants. While they share some similarities with the general lithium greases previously discussed, Zolton offers specific variants like AP-3 and EP-2 that are formulated for different industrial and automotive stress levels

Grease is a semi-solid lubricant consisting of a base oil thickened with a "soap" (like lithium or calcium) to help it stay in place. Unlike oil, which flows and carries away heat, grease is used in open systems and parts where liquid oil would leak out or be washed away by water.

To help you select and apply the right grease for your specific maintenance needs, here are the essential technical documents and visual guides for 2026.

Lithium-based grease is a versatile, semi-solid lubricant composed of a base oil (mineral or synthetic), a lithium soap thickener, and performance-enhancing additives. It is the most widely used industrial grease, accounting for approximately 75% of global applications due to its excellent mechanical stability, water resistance, and high-temperature tolerance

High-temperature grease is a specialized lubricant formulated to maintain stability and a protective film in environments where standard greases would thin, oxidize, or melt, typically starting at 120°C (248°F). Modern high-temperature greases can handle continuous operating temperatures up to 250°C and intermittent peaks over 300°C. 

Industrial grease is a semi-solid lubricant composed of a base oil, a thickening agent, and specific additives designed to reduce friction and wear in heavy machinery. It is essential for components that require long-term lubrication where liquid oils would leak or fail to stay in place, such as bearings, gears, and motors.

Technical Specifications

• Thickener Type: Commonly available as either Lithium Soap or Calcium Soap.
• NLGI Grade: Typically Grade 3 or Grade 3–4, offering a firm, buttery texture.
• Dropping Point: Usually above 180°C for lithium versions and around 90°C for calcium-based versions.
• Operating Range: Generally stable from -20°C to +130°C depending on the specific formulation.
• Texture: Smooth and buttery, often with excellent shear stability. 

MP2 is a high performance multi-purpose lithium based grease suitable for a wide range of industrial and automotive applications. It is engineered to provide a long service life in a broad range of applications.
It is fortified with a multifunctional polymer, rust and corrosion inhibitors to give protection for a wide range of applications and service conditions. It has good oxidation resistance.
