Description

SCHAEFFER’S (since 1839) – #286C Hi-Temp Grease with Copper is an advanced lubricant specifically formulated for high-temperature applications requiring extreme pressure protection. This grease is made from a blend of polyethylene glycol synthetic base fluids and a silica gel thickener, which allows it to perform effectively in harsh environments where temperatures consistently reach 600°F or higher.

The grease is further enhanced with a proprietary high-temperature anti-wear extreme pressure additive system, along with molybdenum disulfide, graphite, and copper flake. When exposed to elevated temperatures, Hi-Temp Grease with Copper gradually softens without any drippage of synthetic base fluids, allowing these solid lubricants to spread and coat bearing surfaces. As temperatures continue to rise, the synthetic base fluids volatilize cleanly, leaving behind a solid lubricant film that can withstand temperatures up to 1,200°F (650°C).

This solid lubricant film, created by the combination of molybdenum disulfide, graphite, and copper flake, adheres naturally to metal surfaces, forming a durable layer that protects against extreme pressures (over 500,000 psi), high shock loads, and vibration. The resulting friction reduction not only decreases wear but also increases bearing life, reduces downtime, and extends lubrication intervals.

In addition to its exceptional high-temperature performance, Hi-Temp Grease with Copper also offers excellent rust and oxidation resistance, water resistance, and mechanical stability. Its adhesive properties prevent it from washing out, splattering, or being squeezed out under heavy loads, making it ideal for use in high-performance machinery where longevity and reliability are paramount.

Performance Benefits:

• Withstands temperatures up to 1,200°F (650°C) without degradation.
• Provides long-lasting protection against extreme pressure, shock loads, and vibration.
• Reduces friction and wear, extending bearing life and reducing downtime.
• Excellent rust and oxidation resistance, ensuring reliable performance.
• Superior adhesive properties prevent washing out, pounding out, and splattering under heavy loads.
• Ideal for high-performance machinery in industries requiring consistent lubrication at extreme temperatures.
