Description
SKF LHCA 150 / 20 belongs to oil, part of our Greases and lubrication range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for LHCA 150 / 20 and any equivalents.
SKF LHCA greases are intended for lubricating transmission and conveyor chains. The line is supplied in 20 kg and 208 liter containers, and each designation pairs a viscosity number with a container format. MR Industrial Accessories LLC provides this line to industrial plants across the United States and in several Latin American countries.
The code is simple once you know how to split it. The first figure tells you the viscosity grade of the base oil; the second tells you the container. So LHCA 150 / 20 and LHCA 150 / 208 use the same base oil, one in a 20 kg package and the other in a 208 liter package. The same pattern applies to LHCA 220, LHCA 320 and LHCA 460. Reading the code this way makes it easier to match the container to how much your plant actually consumes.
Typical applications include transmission chains, roller chains, conveyor chains and drive systems in food processing, cement, mining, steel and logistics operations. You will find them on packaging lines, ovens, clinker conveyors and material handling equipment. Correct lubrication limits wear on pins and bushings and helps keep chain elongation within the limits the manufacturer specifies.
Viscosity selection comes down to chain speed, working temperature and load type. A heavier base oil such as LHCA 460 is generally used where speeds are low and loads are high; lighter grades suit higher speeds. Before applying the lubricant, clean the chain and make sure the film covers pins and rollers evenly. Drip, brush or bath methods all need to reach every articulation point.
When evaluating alternatives, compare base oil viscosity and additive type rather than the name on the label. Chains from other manufacturers may work with a similar lubricant, but the real operating conditions should always be the final check. If you have a part number from another brand or an unidentified chain, send it to us on WhatsApp and we will identify a compatible option or quote the exact reference.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the number after LHCA mean?
- The first number is the viscosity grade of the base oil, and the second is the container format: 20 kg or 208 liters. For instance, LHCA 220 / 20 and LHCA 220 / 208 share the same base oil but come in different containers.
- How do I choose between LHCA 150, 220, 320 and 460?
- It depends on chain speed, temperature and load. Higher viscosity handles greater loads and lower speeds; a less viscous base is better for high speeds. If you are unsure, share your equipment data with us.
- Does it work for chains from other brands?
- Yes, it is a general-purpose chain lubricant. What matters is that the viscosity and additives suit the working conditions. If you have another brand's part number, we will help you find the right equivalent.
