Grease Selection — Quick Reference

Grease = base oil + thickener + additives. Selection turns on application (bearing/chain/open gear/food contact), operating temp, load + speed, and compatibility (incompatible thickeners = breakdown when mixed). AIMS stocks 75+ greases across all major categories.

Grease Type Best For Operating Temp
Lithium / Lithium Complex General workshop bearings, multi-purpose — most common -30 to 130°C (Li) / -30 to 150°C (LiX)
White Lithium Grease (Aerosol) Light-duty sliding mechanisms, hinges, sporting -20 to 130°C
Moly (MoS₂) Grease High-load + shock-load + slow-speed — CV joints, mining -20 to 150°C
EP (Extreme Pressure) Grease Heavy bearings, gears, mining + agricultural -20 to 140°C
Food Grade Grease (NSF H1) Food + bev processing — incidental food contact -20 to 150°C
Silicone Grease Plastics, rubber seals, electrical, non-staining -40 to 200°C
Synthetic (PAO / PFPE) Extreme temperatures, food (PFPE), aerospace -50 to 250°C (PAO) / -65 to 280°C (PFPE)
Calcium Sulfonate Marine + corrosion-prone — water-resistant -20 to 180°C
Polyurea Sealed-for-life electric motor bearings -30 to 160°C — long life

Critical compatibility: Lithium vs Calcium = compatible. Lithium vs Polyurea = NOT compatible (mix = breakdown). Always purge old grease before changing types. NLGI consistency: #00 (semi-fluid) / #0 / #1 / #2 (workshop default) / #3 (firmer). Brands: Rocol, CRC, Inox, Dy-Mark, Molytec. Companion: lubrication, grease types guide, moly grease guide.

Industrial Grease — Lithium, Food Grade, Silicone & Moly Greases Australia

AIMS Industrial stocks 75+ lubricating greases from Rocol, CRC, Inox, Dy-Mark and Molytec — covering white lithium grease, food-grade grease, silicone grease, moly (molybdenum disulphide) grease and multi-purpose grease in cartridges, tins and aerosol formats.

The right grease specification is critical to bearing life, seal compatibility and food safety compliance — AIMS stocks the specialist grades needed across Australian industrial operations.

Grease Types & Applications We Stock

  • CRC Food Grade Multi-Purpose Grease: CRC food grade grease NSF H1 rated for incidental food contact — required in food processing, beverage, pharmaceutical and packaging machinery where standard greases would create a contamination risk. Suitable for bearings, slides and general lubrication points.
  • Inox MX6 Food Grade Grease: Inox MX6 food grade grease for lubrication of food processing equipment, bakery machinery and dairy plant — NSF H1 rated with high moisture resistance for washdown environments.
  • Dy-Mark White Lithium Grease: Dy-Mark Protech white lithium grease for general-purpose machinery lubrication — bearings, hinges, tracks and slides. White lithium grease provides good load-bearing capacity across a wide operating temperature range without staining or darkening adjacent surfaces.
  • Rocol Sapphire Silicone Grease: Rocol MX22 silicone grease for lubrication of rubber seals, O-rings, plastic components and electrical connectors — silicone grease is compatible with rubber and plastics where petroleum-based greases would cause swelling or degradation.
  • Molytec Moly (MoS2) Greases: Molytec molybdenum disulphide (moly) greases for extreme pressure and high-load applications — gears, splines, threads and slow-speed, heavy-load bearings where conventional greases are squeezed out. Moly provides boundary lubrication even when the grease film breaks down.
  • Multi-Purpose & General Workshop Greases: Standard lithium-complex and calcium-based multi-purpose greases for general workshop, agricultural and transport maintenance — compatible with most standard bearing and chassis grease applications.

Selecting the Right Grease

  • Food Grade Compliance: If your machinery has any risk of incidental food contact, CRC and Inox food grade greases (NSF H1 rated) are required by law in Australian food and beverage manufacturing. Using non-food-grade grease in these applications creates a compliance and liability risk.
  • Silicone for Rubber & Plastics: Rocol silicone grease is the only safe lubricant for rubber O-rings, elastomeric seals and plastic components. Petroleum-based greases cause rubber to swell and degrade — never use lithium or moly grease on rubber seals.
  • Moly for High Load & Slow Speed: Molytec moly greases are specified for slow-speed, high-load applications including open gears, earthmoving equipment pins and heavily loaded chassis pivots where standard greases are pressed out and cannot maintain an adequate lubricating film.
  • Operating Temperature Range: Check each grease's rated temperature range against your application. High-temperature applications (oven conveyor bearings, furnace equipment) require specialist high-temperature greases. Standard lithium and white lithium greases from Dy-Mark cover most general workshop temperature ranges.
