Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT
Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT is a superior performance synthetic grease specifically developed to meet the demanding requirements of wind turbine applications operating across wide temperature ranges. It combines advanced synthetic base fluids with a high-quality lithium complex thickener to provide excellent adhesion, structural stability and resistance to water washout. The wax-free formulation and low traction characteristics deliver excellent low-temperature pumpability and low starting torque, supporting reliable performance in extreme operating environments.
One of the key advantages of Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT is its outstanding performance at both high and low temperatures. The synthetic formulation offers excellent thermal and oxidation stability, helping extend grease life and increase relubrication intervals. This contributes to improved bearing life, reduced downtime and lower maintenance costs in wind turbine systems.
Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT also provides excellent protection against wear, rust and corrosion. The advanced additive system helps protect heavily loaded bearings operating at low to moderate speeds, while the lithium complex thickener delivers strong resistance to water and maintains structural integrity in harsh environments. These properties help ensure dependable lubrication in challenging wind turbine operating conditions.
Another important benefit is its excellent pumpability and mechanical stability. Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT can be used in centralized lubrication systems, grease dispensers or manual greasing applications. Its low traction coefficient may also contribute to improved mechanical efficiency and reduced energy consumption compared with conventional greases.
Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT is recommended for lubrication of yaw, pitch and main bearings in wind turbines. It is suitable for heavily loaded bearings where water resistance and long grease life are critical. The grease is widely used as a first-fill product by wind turbine manufacturers and has demonstrated reliable performance across thousands of installations.
Physical characteristics include NLGI 1.5 consistency with a synthetic base oil viscosity of approximately 460 mm²/s at 40°C. Mobil SHC Grease 460 WT has a dropping point of approximately 255°C and a recommended operating temperature range of approximately −30°C to 150°C. The grease also provides a four-ball weld load of approximately 250 kgf and strong water resistance, supporting reliable long-term lubrication of wind turbine bearings.
