Product Description
Mobiltemp SHC Series products are supreme performance antiwear greases
primarily intended for high temperature applications. They combine the unique
features of polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base fluids with those of an
organo-clay, non-soap thickener. The excellent resistance to thermal/oxidative
degradation provided by the PAO base, coupled with the excellent high
temperature structural stability and high dropping point of the clay thickener
result in an outstanding high temperature greases. The wax-free nature of the
synthetic base fluid and its high viscosity index also provide superior low
temperature lubrication as well as excellent film protection at high
temperatures.
Because the PAO base oil has low traction
properties (compared to mineral oil), Mobiltemp SHC Series also offer the
potential for energy savings through reduced friction and lower torque, and
reduced temperatures in the load zone of rolling element bearings. The
Mobiltemp SHC Series is available as three products: Mobiltemp SHC 32 is an
NLGI 1 1/2 grade with ISO VG 32 base oil; Mobiltemp SHC 100 is an NLGI 2 grade
with ISO VG 100 base oil; Mobiltemp SHC 460 Special is an NLGI 1 grade with
ISO VG 460 base oil, plus molybdenum disulphide for extra wear protection.
The Mobiltemp SHC Series of greases is used in numerous high temperature
applications, as well as applications where low temperature start-up or
running torque are important. They provide excellent grease life at high
temperatures and offer extended relubrication periods and energy savings
potential.
Mobiltemp SHC Series greases have become the
products of choice for many users, in many industries worldwide. Their
reputation is based on very wide application temperature range, and their
excellent overall performance.
Features and Benefits
The Mobil SHC brand of oils and greases are recognised and appreciated around
the world for their innovation and outstanding performance. These molecular
design PAO synthetic products, pioneered by ExxonMobil research scientists,
symbolise the continuing commitment to using advanced technology to provide
outstanding products. A key factor in the development of Mobiltemp SHC Series
were the close contacts between our scientists and application specialists
with key Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to ensure that our product
offerings would provide exceptional performance in the continually evolving
industrial equipment designs.
Our work with equipment
builders has helped confirm the results from our own laboratory tests showing
the exceptional performance of the Mobiltemp SHC Series lubricants. These
benefits include superb high temperature performance including thickener
integrity and oxidation life with enhanced bearing protection and bearing life.
To combat high thermal exposure of the oil our product formulation scientists
chose PAO synthetic base oils for Mobiltemp SHC Series oils because of their
exeptional thermal/oxidative resistance potential. Our formulators used a
special clay thickener to provide excellent structural stability and high
dropping point. Mobiltemp SHC Series greases offer the following benefits:

Applications
Mobiltemp SHC greases offer excellent high temperature grease life, bearing
protection and grease integrity along with excellent low temperature
capability and good wear protection. Specific applications include:
- For Mobiltemp SHC 32
- Sealed or re-packable ball and roller bearings
- Splines, screws and some enclosed gearing
- Extreme temperature applications with a recommended operating temperature range of -50º C to 180º C (with appropriate relubrication intervals).
- For Mobiltemp SHC 100
- High speed bearings and thrust bearings where a wide temperature range is desired
- It is particularly suitable for use in electric motor bearings where operating conditions demand reduced friction, low wear and long service life
- Extreme temperature applications with a recommended operating temperature range of -50º C to 200º C (with appropriate relubrication intervals).
- For Mobiltemp SHC 100 Special
- The presence of molybdenum disulphide makes it particularly suitable for the lubrication of sliding machine elements such as cams and ways, which are subject to shock loading.
- Extreme temperature applications with a recommended operating temperature range of -50ºC to 200ºC (with appropriate relubrication intervals).
- For Mobiltemp SHC 460 Special
- The presence of molybdenum disulphide makes it particularly suitable for the lubrication of sliding machine elements such as cams and ways, which are subject to long relubrication intervals, limited motion or shock loading.
- Oven conveyor or kiln bearings which are subject to high temperatures or cycling between high and normal temperatures
- Extreme temperature applications with a recommended operating temperature range of -40º C to 180º C (with appropriate relubrication intervals).
