Grease classification L-XBBGA 3 — ISO 12924
ISO 12924 grease code: X = grease, the following letters = lowest and highest service temperature, water resistance and EP performance, the final figure = NLGI grade.
Lubricating grease KF3G-20 — DIN 51825
Grease class DIN 51825: K = bearings, F = solid lubricants, 3 = NLGI grade, G = maximum temperature, -20 = minimum temperature.
Semi-fluid gear grease OGF3G-20 — DIN 51826
Grease class DIN 51826: OG = open gears, F = solid lubricants, 3 = NLGI grade, G = maximum temperature, -20 = minimum temperature.
Open-gear grease, class CKG 3 — ISO 6743-6
Class CKG of ISO 6743-6: semi-fluid to soft grease for open or slow-running gears, NLGI 3 consistency.

Eni Grease NG 3 is a black grease based on mineral oil with an anhydrous calcium thickener. It has a smooth appearance and is additivated with a solid lubricant (graphite). The graphite gives good anti-wear properties and guarantees lubrication even under boundary conditions. It is recommended for lubricating open gears, chains, cables and machine parts running at low speeds, under high loads and in dusty environments. Eni Grease NG 3 sheds water, so it can be used in humid environments and in the presence of water.
