DROPPING POINT — 350°F (177°C) minimum.
MINIMUM TIMKEN EP O.K. LOAD — 40 lb. (18 kg).
ADDITIVES — Rust and oxidation inhibitors that do not corrode
steel or swell or deteriorate synthetic seals.
General Purpose Grease
Bi-annual Lubrication —
The following specifications and
lubricants for general purpose grease apply to gear couplings that
are lubricated bi-annually and operate within ambient temperatures
of –30°F (–34°C) to 200°F (93°C). For temperatures beyond this
range, consult Factory. For normal service, use a NLGI #1 extreme
pressure (EP) grease EXCEPT when the coupling speed is less than
the minimum specified in Table 4, Page 5. At these lower speeds,
use a NLGI #0 extreme pressure (EP) grease. When one or more
gear couplings in an application require NLGI #0 grease, the
same grease may be used in all of the couplings. DO NOT use
cup grease.
If coupling leaks grease, is exposed to extreme temperatures,
excessive moisture or experiences frequent reversals or axial
movements; more frequent lubrication may be required.
Lubricants listed in Tables 1, 2, & 3 are typical products only and
should not be construed as exclusive recommendations.

WORKED PENETRATION AT 77°F(25°C) —
NLGI #1 . . . . . . . . 310-340 (See Table 1)

DROPPING POINT — 300°F(149°C) or higher
TEXTURE — Smooth or fibrous
MINIMUM TIMKEN O.K. LOAD — 30 lb.
SEPARATION AND RESISTANCE — Low oil separation rate and
high resistance to separation from centrifuging.
LIQUID CONSTITUENT — Possess good lubricating
properties . . . equivalent to a high quality, well refined
petroleum oil with EP additives.
INACTIVE — Must not corrode steel or cause swelling or
deterioration of synthetic seals.
Oil Lubrication
EP oils may be a more effective lubricant than grease when the
required coupling speed is one half of the minimum speed
range of NLGI #1 grease listed in Table 4, Page 5 (Minimum
rpm
¸
2). Oil lubricated couplings must be sealed to prevent
leakage, i.e. keyways, etc. Couplings must be drained and
refilled with new oil every six months for operating temperatures
up to 160°F (71°C) and every three months for couplings
operating at temperatures of 160°F (71°C) up to 200°F (93°C).
For temperatures beyond this range, consult Factory. The
minimum operating temperature must not be lower than the
pour point of the oil. The specified amount of grease listed in
Table 4, Page 5, is in pounds and also applies to the volume of
oil in pints.
