Understanding NLGI Grades for Grease Selection

NLGI is about consistency, not total quality, and affects pumpability and grease retention.

  • Why This Topic Matters - Understanding NLGI Grades for Grease Selection affects bearing life, grease consumption, equipment uptime, and maintenance cost.
  • Grease Selection Checklist - Confirm temperature, speed, load, water, dust, application method, relubrication interval, compatibility, and packaging.
  • What to Send for a Recommendation - Send equipment type, speed, load, temperature, water or dust exposure, current grease, NLGI grade, and packaging requirement.
