Red Line CV-2 Grease

Description

• Outperforms the best conventional or synthetic greases and lubes
• Withstands extreme temperature and pressure in wheel bearings, U-joints, and high-angle CV Joints
• Excellent high-temp stability, extreme-pressure protection, and water resistance
• Used in a variety of applications with operating temps from -100°F to 500°F
• Strong resistance to oxidation and corrosion, low evaporation and oil separation with a minimum effect on rubber seals
• Contains an organic moly for chassis lubrication and high temp/high speed industrial equipment
• Synthetic fluidity allows increases in bearing life up to 200%
• Will darken after high-temp use-not detrimental to performance

Red Line CV-2 Grease is designed to withstand the extreme temperatures and pressures
which occur in high-performance wheel bearings and CV-joints. The excellent hightemperature
stability, extreme-pressure protection, and water resistance enables it to
out-perform even the best conventional or synthetic greases. Red Line CV-2 Grease can be
used in a wide range of applications at temperatures ranging between -100°F to 500°F and
provides good oxidation and corrosion resistance, low evaporation and oil separation, and has
a minimum effect on rubber seals. The exceptional extreme-pressure performance and the
fluidity of the synthetic oil allows increases in bearing life of 200% to 800%. Red Line CV-2
Grease contains a red moly compound which is a superior lubricant to black moly disulfide
lubricants.
Red Line CV-2 Grease may also be used in industrial applications such as high-temperature
alternator bearings, high-speed ball bearings, conveyor bearings, worm gear drives, servo
mechanisms, and applications where vibrations can cause fretting wear and corrosion to take
place.
Red Line CV-2 Grease will retain its consistency and extreme-pressure performance under
high-temperature and high-shear conditions for extended periods, which extends the
performance ranges of the lubricated components. Red Line CV-2 will slightly darken after
high-temperature use; this darkening will not detrimentally effect the performance of the
grease. Although Red Line CV-2 is compatible with small amounts of many petroleum-based
greases, it is always good lubrication practice to thoroughly clean out the old grease to
eliminate abrasive particles and to minimize the possibility of grease incompatibility.
