Lubrizol® 5288
Delivering Longer Bearing Life
The newest addition to our family of multi-functional grease additives, Lubrizol® 5288 delivers longer bearing grease life and minimizes bearing failure. The result: better performance, extended equipment life, high temperature protection and improved economics. A fully-formulated additive package, this versatile chemistry can be used in lithium, lithium complex and urea-thickened greases.
Not Just More. But Better.
Automated greasing systems. Longer re-greasing intervals. Sealed “greased for life” bearings. The options for reducing maintenance costs for mobile and industrial equipment are increasing, and so is the need for premium greases; greases that can provide big results in smaller quantities. For applications that demand top-tier performance, Lubrizol 5288 offers several advantages.
Less Downtime and Lower Maintenance Costs
Keeping equipment running longer requires not just better performance, but the right balance of performance characteristics. Improved oxidation stability coupled with superior antiwear protection, rust prevention and extreme pressure performance extends bearing life. And that means less downtime.
In addition, with Lubrizol 5288, improved oxidation stability minimizes grease degradation, so re-greasing intervals can be extended, allowing for better equipment maintenance synchronization and in most cases reduced grease usage. Lubrizol 5288 also provides protection against corrosion of non-ferrous metals such as, brass bearing cages and offer improved compatibility with elastomeric bearing seal materials.
Global Product Acceptance
Global marketers can be confident that Lubrizol 5288 is registered and accepted globally. At the recommended treat rate of 4%, Lubrizol 5288 provides a competitive advantage and does not trigger EU risk phrase labeling of the finished grease.
The Best Choice For Extending Re-greasing Intervals
Re-greasing intervals are based on manufacturers’ recommendations. In most cases, those intervals are based on grease properties far inferior to premium products like Lubrizol 5288. As a result, there is the potential for standard intervals to be extended, based on laboratory testing, when Lubrizol 5288 multifunctional grease additive is used. The result? Tremendous reductions in labor and material costs.
Your Source for The Right Level of Performance
Lubrizol 5288 delivers outstanding performance under the most challenging conditions. But not all equipment needs are the same. That’s why Lubrizol offers an entire family of multifunctional grease additives from basic to premium; all backed by Lubrizol’s long-established reputation for quality products and services.
