Application Recommendations
Use AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease in food-service and pharmaceutical industry equipment, including preparation, processing and packaging machinery where there is a possibility of incidental contact.
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease is an ultra-premium aluminum complex grease designed to meet the stringent requirements of FDA 21 CFR 178.3570. It is registered H-1 by NSF for incidental food contact (NSF Registration No. 172163) for use as a lubricant in and around food-processing areas.
Remains Stable at Temperature Extremes
X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease provides exceptional performance over a wide operating temperature range of -49°F to 392°F (up to 482°F in intermittent-use situations), making it an excellent grease for both hot and cold applications.
Maximum Equipment Life
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease features excellent extreme-pressure capabilities that reduce friction and heat generation and help eliminate metal-to-metal contact. It promotes maximum equipment performance and life.
Resists Water Washout
X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease resists water washout, ensuring it stays in place when exposed to water during washing and rinsing. Its excellent washout resistance helps reduce greasing frequency, saving time spent performing maintenance. It also protects equipment from the harmful effects of water, including rust and corrosion.
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease is compatible with lithium complex, calcium 12 hydroxy and other aluminum complex greases. It is not compatible with barium, bentonite clay, calcium, calcium complex, lithium, lithium 12 hydroxy, polyurea or sodium greases. If switching from an incompatible grease-type to AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease, complete purging is required.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a clean work environment is important when equipment greasing is performed. Wipe grease fittings clean prior to injecting grease to prevent contaminant ingestion. Maintain bearing housings one-third to one-half full of grease. Prevent over-greasing as this can result in excessive heat buildup. Supplement standard grease maintenance by periodically cleaning and packing housings with fresh grease on an established maintenance schedule.
PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
AMSOIL X-Treme Synthetic Food-Grade Grease is available in 14-oz. cartridges, 35-lb. lugs and 120-lb. kegs.
