Castrol Tribol GR ES 2
01736 757002Castrol Tribol GR ES 2 Energy Saving Grease
Castrol Tribol GR ES 2 (previously called Longtime ES 2) is an energy saving, synthetic high performance grease based on novel thickener-technology.
It has excellent mechanical and shear stability and extraordinary resistance against water and humidity as well as metalworking fluid emulsions.
The carefully selected additive package includes antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors and a unique EP/AW system. The novel polymeric thickener is non-ionic, inert and contributes to an increased film thickness. This, in turn, results in longer life and easier and more secure maintenance. On account of its polymeric nature we can use the lower base oil viscosity instead of a higher base oil viscosity product. This in turn helps reduce the application temperature and leads to energy saving. Significant drop in temperature has been observed in certain applications.
Due to the inertness of the thickener system, the product is also compatible with most types of conventional lubricating greases. In addition, the technology provides high adhesion and low solubility resulting in excellent resistance to water and aggressive chemicals.
- For lubrication for both sliding- and rolling applications
- The product can be used for consolidation within a plant
- For lubrication of electric motor bearings.
- For Bearing-lubrication even under strong influence of emulsions or water.
- For lubrication of Chucks in Machine tools
- Temperature application range: – 30°C up to 100°C, max 120°C short term peaks.

Storage:
All packages should be stored under cover. Where outside storage is unavoidable drums should be laid horizontally to avoid the possible ingress of water and damage to drum markings. Products should not be stored above 60°C, or exposed to hot sun or freezing conditions.
This product was previously called Castrol Longtime ES 2. The name was changed in 2015.
