LGWM 2
 
High load, wide temperature bearing grease
 
LGWM 2 has been developed for lubrication under a wide temperature range, high loads and wet environments. LGWM 2 is a synthetic-mineral oil based grease using the latest complex calcium sulphonate thickener technology. LGWM 2 is suitable for temperatures down to - 40 °C.
