Steel mill had a pillow block bearing running at 326 degrees. Normal operating temperature was 190 degrees. The fourteen-year old bearing was smoking, but they had to keep production going until the morning when maintenance could fix it with new parts. They used EP-2 Grease and twenty minutes later, the temperature had dropped to 260 degrees, the smoking and squealing had stopped. Through the night, the temperature had dropped to 130 degrees and leveled out at 167.

Gold mine’s initial problem was that a set of bearings had score marks causing the operating temperature to rise and no replacement bearings were available for approximately 2 weeks. They turned the white metal bearing caps around, i.e. top to bottom, cleaned the old grease and contamination out, filled with Prolong EP-2 Grease and ran for 4 weeks until a scheduled repair could be done with new bearings. They only run on EP-2 now, but use far less for longer than the old type of grease with better bearing life.

When two samples of grease were tested by the South African Bureau of Standards, Prolong Super Lubricants met or exceeded all of their test criteria.
Properties tested by SABS were as follows:
Penetration, copper corrosion, drop point, evaporation loss, oil separation, rust prevention, water wash-out, wheel bearing leakage, working stability, Timken OK-value, and wear scar diameter.

Research scientists at Northwestern University, sponsored by the Infrastructure Technology Institute, conducted a laboratory project “to study the effect of various lubricants on the wear and corrosion of metals recommended for bridge pin and eyebar connections”. Scientists ran corrosion tests in a salt fog chamber to replicate the environmental conditions United States bridges are exposed to. They used several types of metals and 7 competitive greases in their testing.

Findings are as follows:

• “Prolong EP-2 gave an exceptional reduction in corrosion rate”
• “Results show Prolong EP-2 Grease to be about 10 times more resistant to corrosion than a typical wheel bearing grease”

They ran a series of mixed grease tests on wear and corrosion resistance and concluded, “None of the mixed greases performed as well as Prolong EP-2 Grease, however, there was some reduction in corrosion as the percent of Prolong EP-2 increased”.

We use Prolong EP-2 Grease in air and electric motor bearings, molding press tie bars, oven roller wheels, mask washer agitators, guide pins, mold parts, and volume air pumps plantwide, all with excellent results’ unequivocally recommend Prolong products in any of the above applications.”

Cement company operates a Fuller Kavako to unload cement from the hold of cargo ships. The Fuller’s bearing must be greased every 6 hours and the procedure takes 45 minutes. However, since we began using EP-2 Grease the between greasing has increased to every 2 days. Using your product had led us to substantial savings. We have also begun using EP-2 Grease on the basket elevator. We originally greased the bearings every other day. Since using your product, it is now only necessary to grease the bearings twice a week.”
