MULTIPLEX® 460

ADHESIVE, EXTREME PRESSURE LITHIUM COMPLEX GREASE

Phillips 66® Multiplex 460 is a premium quality, adhesive, extreme pressure (EP), lithium complex grease specially developed for use in demanding industrial applications such as steel rolling mills where high loads, high temperatures and/or wet conditions exist.

Multiplex 460 is manufactured with a lithium complex soap thickener, high viscosity base oils and a high performance tackifier. It is fortified with EP and antiwear additives as well as rust and oxidation inhibitors. It is an adhesive grease designed to have excellent resistance to water spray-off and adhesion to bearing surfaces. This provides protection of metal parts against rust and corrosion and superior lubrication in extremely wet environments, specifically those found in steel rolling mills where bearings are exposed to large volumes of cooling water. It has excellent oxidation resistance providing a long service life and a high load-carrying capacity for excellent wear protection.
