AMSOIL 100% SYNTHETIC EP #00 GREASE

AMSOIL Synthetic EP #00 Grease delivers heavy-duty protection for grease-filled gearboxes, wheel hubs, and centralized lubrication systems where conventional greases fall short on longevity and film strength. Built on a high-viscosity ISO 460 synthetic base oil with calcium sulfonate thickener, it handles the punishment of commercial, agricultural, and fleet equipment without breaking down.

Grease-filled gearboxes and enclosed drive systems present a unique lubrication challenge. Leaky housings, shock loads from uneven terrain, and wide temperature swings can overwhelm standard greases, leaving components vulnerable to metal-to-metal contact. Equipment that runs in remote locations or on tight service schedules needs a grease that stays in place, pumps reliably in cold weather, and maintains its protective film under extreme pressure.

SHOCK-LOAD PROTECTION THAT HOLDS UP
Rotary mower gearboxes, combine headers, cotton picker spindles, and crusher drives all experience sudden, intense loading that can rupture the oil film of conventional greases. AMSOIL Synthetic EP Grease posts a Four-Ball EP Weld Load of 250 kg in ASTM D2596 testing, meaning it resists welding under high-pressure contact far beyond what standard NLGI #00 greases can handle. Four-Ball Wear testing (ASTM D2266) returns a scar diameter of just 0.46 mm, confirming that even under sustained contact, component surfaces stay protected.

EXTREME TEMPERATURE RANGE WITHOUT COMPROMISE
This grease operates across a service range of -40°F to 350°F. At low temperatures, it maintains pumpability for centralized lubrication systems that need to function reliably in freezing conditions. At the top end, a dropping point above 397°F (ASTM D2265) means the grease structure holds together in high-heat gearboxes, kiln car wheel bearings, and other thermally demanding applications. That range covers everything from winter trucking operations to summer agricultural work without switching products.

CORROSION AND OXIDATION RESISTANCE
Water intrusion and corrosion are constant threats in exposed agricultural equipment, underground mine gear systems, and industrial bottle washers. AMSOIL Synthetic EP Grease passes ASTM D1743 corrosion prevention testing, and its calcium sulfonate thickener provides inherent rust protection beyond what lithium-based greases typically offer. The synthetic base oil resists oxidation over extended service intervals, which matters in applications where regreasing is difficult or infrequent.

LOWER FRICTION, LOWER ENERGY CONSUMPTION
A low coefficient of friction reduces the energy required to drive grease-lubricated components. In conveyor drive gearboxes, escalator slide rails, and pneumatic tools, that translates directly to lower operating costs and reduced heat generation. Less friction also means less thermal degradation of the grease itself, extending its useful life in the application.

BUILT FOR COMMERCIAL AND FLEET APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic EP Grease is the primary type of grease recommended for truck wheel hubs as outlined in RP 631B, issued by The Technical and Maintenance Council of the American Trucking Association. It suits truck trailer bearings, steering axles, steering gears, and mobile drilling equipment. For fleet maintenance managers running centralized lubrication systems, its reliable low-temperature pumpability and long service life reduce both downtime and grease consumption.

SPECIFICATIONS AND COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic EP Grease is an NLGI #00 grade grease with a calcium sulfonate thickener and ISO 460 synthetic base oil. It is compatible with many other grease types, but when switching from a previous grease, AMSOIL recommends cleaning the old grease from the equipment when possible or flushing with a liberal amount of AMSOIL Synthetic EP Grease while the mechanism is in operation. Monitor the system closely after any grease changeover.
