ROWE HIGHTEC GREASEGUARD EP 2 is a high-quality, mineral oil-based multi-purpose grease reinforced with corrosion and oxidation inhibitors. Highly effective EP (extreme pressure) additives give it excellent compression resistance under heavy mechanical load. Lithium-saponified for a smooth, stable structure, it is a versatile workshop grease for a wide range of bearings and lubrication points.

Purpose and specifications

This grease is recommended for roller bearings and slide bearings on vehicles, machinery and general industrial equipment. It is classified to DIN 51 502 and carries the consistency and performance designation DIN 51 825: KP 2 K-30, an NLGI grade 2 grease with extreme pressure and corrosion protection rated down to -30 C.

• 0.400kg container sized for both single jobs and ongoing workshop use
• Reliable pumpability and lubrication across an application range of -30 C to +120 C
• EP additives plus corrosion and oxidation inhibitors that protect bearings against wear and rust
• Stable lithium-soap structure that resists water wash-out and stays in place under load

When to use / change?

Use it wherever a versatile NLGI 2 EP grease is specified for roller or slide bearings. Re-lubrication intervals depend on the application, load and temperature; follow the equipment maintenance schedule and re-grease before the existing film breaks down. It performs reliably between -30 C and +120 C. Unopened and stored cool and dry, the shelf life is approximately 5 years.

Frequently asked questions

What does the EP 2 designation mean?
EP indicates extreme-pressure additives for high loads, and 2 is the NLGI consistency grade, a medium firmness suitable for most bearings.

Can I use it on wheel bearings?
It suits general roller and slide bearings; for very high-speed or high-temperature wheel bearings choose a grease rated for those conditions.

Is it water resistant?
Yes. The lithium-soap base and corrosion inhibitors give good resistance to water and rust in service.

Always verify the exact approval against your vehicle's owner manual before use.
