PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are qualified against the highest grease standards and
are designed for multiple use applications. Composed of premium quality synthetic base oils and
lithium complex thickeners, Multi-Purpose Greases provide superior film strength, shear resistance,
adhesion properties and mechanical stability, and they excel in temperature extremes by providing
excellent oxidation stability, high temperature dropping points and low temperature torque values
and pumping capabilities. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are formulated with oil soluble
extreme-pressure additives for heavy loads, as well as oxidation and corrosion inhibitors that
impart good oxidation stability and rust protection.

PERFORMANCE FEATURES
  • High dropping point of 430°F
  • Resists thermal and oxidation degradation
  • Excellent water-washout resistance
  • Good low temperature pumpability and torque values
  • Adhesive and shear stable to prevent squeeze out

Applications or Requirements
  • GLA (#0) Cincinnati Milicron P-79 Spec

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease grade #0 is recommended in manual or automatic
lubricating systems. NLGI #0 (GLA) has better mobility and is the preferred choice for colder
applications, automatic lubrication systems with long pumping runs and gear box applications
(where recommended by manufacturer).

The correct consistency grade of AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease is recommended in
heavy and light duty applications found in manufacturing plants, automobiles, agricultural and
construction equipment. These include, but are not limited to, roller bearings, plain bearings, thrust
bearings, gears, electric motors, presses, winches, bushings, wheel bearings, chassis lubrication,
universal joints, ball joints, tie-rod ends, and steering knuckles. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose
Greases are suitable for use up to 350 degrees F. When operating at elevated temperatures,
frequent regreasing may be required.

AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Greases are compatible with many other types of greases.
However, it is recommended that when changing greases, the equipment be cleaned of the old
grease when possible or flushed with a liberal amount of Multi-Purpose Grease while the
mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for any inconsistencies. Grease
compatibility questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or AMSOIL Inc.

APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is important when equipment greasing is performed. Wipe
grease fittings clean prior to injecting grease to prevent contaminant ingestion. Maintain bearing
housings one-third to one-half full of grease. Do not over-grease, as excessive heat buildup can
result. Supplement standard grease maintenance by periodically cleaning and packing housings
with fresh grease on an established maintenance schedule.
