PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic GVC is a lithium complex thickened grease blended
with premium ISO-320 synthetic base oils. This grease is fully compounded with
additives providing EP protection, oxidation resistance and rust and corrosion
protection. AMSOIL GVC is shear stable, maintaining its viscosity and
consistency in the presence of mechanical activity, and GVC stays in place by
resisting water washout. During high-temperature operation, GVC's thickener
system remains intact and the high viscosity base oils resist thermal breakdown
and provide a thick film of lubricant for good boundary lubrication. AMSOIL GVC
adheres to critical components in sever conditions and provides problem-free
operation, resulting in increased uptime and reduced repair and maintenance
costs.
APPLICATION
AMSOIL GVC is excellent for use in heavy duty
industrial and off road applications where equipment is working under adverse
conditions such as exposure to environmental elements, slow, heavily-loaded
applications and shock-loading conditions. Use GVC in wet applications requiring
excellent water resistance and in high temperature applications up to 350°F
continuous service and 400°F intermittent service. The lithium complex thickener
system and high viscosity base oil provide top performance in hostile
environments and heavy duty industrial or of road applications where typical
multipurpose greases may not perform up to standards.
AMSOIL GVC Lithium Complex Grease is compatible with many other types of greases. However, it is recommended that when changing greases the equipment be cleaned of the old grease when possible or flushed with a liberal amount of the new grease while the mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for any inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL Industrial for assistance.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is
important when equipment greasing is performed. Wipe grease fittings clean prior
to injecting grease to prevent contaminant ingestion. Maintain bearing housings
one-third to one-half full of grease. Prevent over-greasing as excessive heat
build up can result. Supplement standard grease maintenance by periodically
cleaning and packing housings with fresh grease on an established maintenance
schedule.
