What are the common types of bearing grease, here are the following for you, I hope to help you.


General-purpose lithium-based grease for automobiles, which is a kind of grease commonly used in the modern automobile industry. It has the characteristics of long life, good water resistance and good lubricating effect. A substitute for regular butter. It can be used for most of the lubrication of automobiles. Its service life is twice that of calcium-based greases.


Calcium-based grease, which is commonly known as butter. The most widely used grease in the automotive maintenance industry today. This grease is the technology of the 1930s. In developed countries, it is already a product that has been eliminated. Due to its low price, it is also widely used in the auto repair industry. It is strongly recommended not to use such products again. At least not in your own car.


Extreme pressure lithium complex grease, which is a grease with higher extreme pressure and antiwear properties than general-purpose lithium grease. It should be noted that greases have the same grades as lubricating oils to suit different ambient temperatures and operating conditions. In general, the larger the number, the more viscous it is. Usually, 2# can be used throughout the year in the south, and 1# can be used in the north in winter. 3# is only suitable for tropical heavy-duty vehicles. Of course, strictly speaking, the choice of grease is also affected and restricted by other factors.


Graphite calcium-based grease, usually black, is due to the addition of a certain proportion of flake graphite in the grease, which has good water resistance and rolling properties. It is especially suitable for lubricating the rear steel plates of automobiles. Relevant tests have proved that the service life of automobile leaf springs lubricated by graphite calcium-based grease is more than double that of ordinary butter. It is recommended that car-cutters do not use ordinary butter to lubricate the rear wheel steel plate.


The above are some common types of bearing grease, which are introduced here. I hope you can help them after understanding.
