MOLYKOTE G-4700
Harmonization Code : 3403.19 | Lubricating Preparations (With 70% or More Petroleum Oils) For Automotive and Other Uses
Main features
- Extreme-Load Bearing Lubrication
- PAO Synthetic Base Oil and Lithium Complex Thickener
- Industrial Plastic/Elastomer Compatibility
Product Description
MOLYKOTE® G-4700 Extreme Pressure Synthetic Grease is a high-performance, light-consistency synthetic grease formulated with a polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oil, a lithium complex thickener, and fortified with molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) solid lubricants. Engineered to handle extreme loads, vibration, and shock loading, it offers a higher load-carrying capacity, greater wear resistance, and longer service life than conventional petroleum-based lubricants.
Key features
- Extreme-pressure performance: Designed specifically to withstand extreme loads and shock loading, boasting a high four-ball weld load of 3,700 N.
- Wide operating range & compatibility: Delivers reliable lubrication across a broad temperature range of -40°C to 177°C (-40°F to 350°F) and provides good compatibility with most industrial plastics and elastomers.
- Industry approvals: Meets Cincinnati Machine P-64 and NLGI GC-LB specifications. Formulated without intentional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Applications / Suitable for
- Rolling element and plain bearings
- Pivot pins, cams, guides, and ways
- Drive screws, gears, splines, and other heavily loaded machine elements
