Manufacturer's description

Cat Extreme Application Grease - Arctic is designed for high-load, high-speed lubrication points on equipment operating in cold-temperature environments. It combines a high-quality lithium complex thickener with a semi-synthetic base oil, fortified with 5% molybdenum disulfide (moly), to deliver long service life in Cat applications while continuing to perform and protect at operating temperatures down to -50°C (-58°F). The grease resists softening under extreme loads and high speeds, helping reduce component wear, and resists oxidation to protect metal against rust without corroding or damaging steel, copper bearing alloys or conventional seal materials. It is rated over an operating temperature range of -50°C to +130°C (-58°F to +266°F), at NLGI grade 0.5, with a gray-black color. Typical values from the Cat technical data sheet include a base oil viscosity of 60 mm²/s at 40°C (ASTM D445), a dropping point of 230°C (ASTM D2265), a 4-ball weld load of 400 kg (ASTM D2596), a pass on rust prevention (ASTM D1743) and 1A copper corrosion (ASTM D4048). In Cat's grease selection guide, this product is positioned for high-load, high-speed working environments in low-temperature conditions, alongside the Cat Extreme Application Grease - Desert, Prime Application, Utility and Ball Bearing greases.

Applications

• Extreme-cold operating environments, from -50°C to +130°C (-58°F to +266°F).

Performance & benefits

• Long life: high-quality lithium-complex thickener in a semi-synthetic base oil, fortified with 5% molybdenum disulfide (moly), for outstanding performance in Cat applications.
• Extreme-cold operation: performs and protects at operating temperatures down to -50°C (-58°F).
• Reduced component wear: resists softening and continues to protect parts under extreme loads and high speeds.
• Corrosion protection: resists oxidation and protects metal against rust, without corroding or damaging steel, copper-bearing alloys or conventional seal materials.
