NSK has developed the H3G bearing grease lubricant 100% naturally biodegradable, totally derived from food grade ingredients. The eco-friendly grease is perfect for any plants where machinery, production equipments or devices come into contact with foods, pharmaceuticals or cosmetics, conforming to the highest international safety standards in these sectors, also offering water resistance and low torque.
The NSK environmentally friendly grease is petroleum-free, and is made entirely from food-based ingredients including the base oil, thickening agent and additives: a food-grade vegetable oil is used as a base oil for its excellent heat tolerance, while the thickening agent contains food additives with a fine 3D network for good base oil retention. In addition, the food additives in the formulation further enhance the durability of the base oil, delivering a grease that offers enhanced oxidative stability and one-third lower friction loss (torque) than existing comparable products. Further advantages of the green grease are less leakage and longer service life, even in presence of exposure to water.
