Base Oils

Base oils are the foundation of grease, providing essential lubrication and flow characteristics. Whether mineral, synthetic, or biobased, the right base oil influences viscosity, temperature stability, and overall performance.

Corrosion Inhibitors

Corrosion inhibitors are crucial in grease formulations to protect metal surfaces from rust and oxidation, especially in harsh environments. These additives form a protective barrier that shields components from moisture and contaminants, extending the lifespan of machinery and ensuring reliable performance over time.

Performance Additives

Performance additives elevate grease functionality by enhancing wear protection, oxidation resistance, corrosion inhibition, and load-carrying ability. Tailored additive packages ensure the grease performs under specific operating conditions.

Thickeners

Thickeners are the key ingredients that give grease its semi-solid consistency. These compounds, such as lithium, calcium, aluminum, and poly urea soaps or complexes, act by gelling the base oil, allowing it to hold its shape and adhere to surfaces. The choice of thickener affects not only the grease's texture but also its performance characteristics, including water resistance, stability under high temperatures, mechanical strength, and resistance to shear.

Explore All Components for Grease Manufacturing

Grease formulations rely on a combination of key ingredients to provide optimal performance and protection. The base oil serves as the primary lubricant, while thickeners give the grease its semi-solid consistency and impact its stability, temperature tolerance, and resistance to wear. Performance additives are included to enhance properties like corrosion protection, oxidation resistance, and load-bearing capacity. In some formulations, solid lubricants are added for additional friction reduction and high-load capabilities. Together, these ingredients work in harmony to ensure that grease meets the specific demands of machinery, providing reliable lubrication, protection, and efficiency.
