Note: – For areas with relatively high ambient temperatures, use LGMT 3 instead of LGMT 2– For special operating conditions, refer to the SKF bearing grease selection chart 

Generally use if: Speed = M, Temperature = M and Load = M General purpose

Unless:

Expected bearing temperature continuou sly > 100 °C / 212 °F High temperature

Expected bearing temperature continuou sly > 150 °C / 302 °F, Extremely high temperaturedemands for radiation resistance

Low ambient –50 °C / –58 °F, expected bearing temperature < 50 °C / 122 °F Low temperature

Shock loads, heavy loads, frequent start–up / shut–down High load
