equipment are subject to temperatures that cause
ordinary greases to melt and run, leaving critical
bearing surfaces unprotected. Almasol® High
Temperature Lubricant is designed to withstand
high temperatures, staying in place to provide
constant lubrication. It also resists oxidation
and vaporization. By ensuring longer lubrication
intervals and fewer bearing failures, Almasol
High Temperature Lubricant helps contribute to
increased production and a healthier bottom line.
A plastic extruder such as this is the type of high-temperature application for which
Almasol 1250-1251 provides superior bearing protection.

DSC is a sophisticated technique for evaluating the Thickener Type Inorganic Inorganic
oxidation characteristics of a sample of lubricant Texture Smooth, Smooth,
in a static condition. It is a rapid and reproducible Buttery Buttery
method that measures the heat flow under Color Red Red
controlled conditions. Samples are put under NLGI Grade 2 1/2 1

Recommendations
• Although this product is formulated with inorganic
thickeners, it contains petroleum oil which, under very
high temperatures, can ultimately form carbon and
residues as do other greases with petroleum oils.
• May show high-starting torques due to heavy oil.
