SKF LGHB series grease is a lubricant formulated for bearings subjected to high loads and severe working conditions, where a conventional grease degrades quickly. It is applied in roller bearings, ball bearings and generally in lubrication points that withstand vibration, shock or sustained high temperature. MR Industrial Accessories sells it and advises you on choosing the container and presentation according to your equipment.

The series designation is read in parts: the letters LGHB identify the high-load grease category, and the number after the underscore indicates the consistency grade. Examples range from LGHB 2/0.4 to LGHB 2/180, where the 2 corresponds to the NLGI grade and the second number to the container size in kilograms. Thus, an LGHB 2/0.4 is a small cartridge and an LGHB 2/180 is a 180 kg drum. Always verify the full part number before requesting a quote.

In industry in the USA, Canada, Mexico and South America this grease appears in steel mills, cement plants, grinding plants, mining equipment and heavy transport, where bearings work under high load and vibration cycles. It is also used in bearings of paper machines, presses and gear reducers that do not receive frequent maintenance. It is a common choice when the lubrication point is exposed to dust, water or high temperature and the goal is to extend the relubrication interval.

To select it, take into account the bearing load, the service temperature and the type of sealing on the equipment. A high-load grease does not replace a high-speed grease: if the bearing rotates fast, excess consistency can raise the temperature. During assembly, clean the lubrication point, apply the correct amount and verify that the line is not obstructed. Bearing alignment and clearance also influence the performance of any lubricant.

As for equivalences, each manufacturer has its own nomenclature for high-load greases and codes should not be cross-referenced by similarity. The SKF LGHB series is identified by its full designation and by the NLGI grade, not by color or container. If your equipment uses a grease from another brand, send us the original code and the working conditions, and at MR we will help you find the equivalent SKF reference.

If you already have the container code, send it by WhatsApp to MR Industrial Accessories along with the equipment where it will be used. With that we will provide the quote for the presentation you need, from the small cartridge to the drum, and confirm the quote for the LGHB series. We can also advise you if you are unsure between two consistency grades.
