Wheel Bearing HD - Sodium Grease
Balmerol Wheel Bearing HD Grease is heavy duty soda soap automotive grease formulated with tailor-made fats mineral oil and selected additives to ensure good stability and load bearing capacity under the most severe conditions. Balmerol Wheel Bearing HD Grease does not melt even at extended hauling, where other sodium greases are likely to flow out of wheel bearing hubs.
Available Size:
500ml 1L 0.35l
Features & Benefits:
- Meets BIS 10647:1983 (Raffi: 2014)
- Good water resistance – Lower grease consumption and better bearing / component protection
- Good corrosion protection in wet conditions which extends equipment life
Applications / Recommendations:
- Balmerol Wheel Bearing HD Grease is recommended for use in automotive front and rear wheel roller bearings of heavy, medium, and light motor vehicles
- Balmerol Wheel Bearing HD Grease surpasses stipulated requirements of IS :10647
- This grease is compatible only with Sodium base grease. Sealed bearings should be thoroughly cleaned before using this grease
