Primrose Oil 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D NLGI Grade No. 2

Primrose Oil 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D NLGI Grade No. 2 is a rich green moly grease which provides excellent stability and unsurpassed performance under a wide range of temperatures and operating conditions. Armor Plate grease is entirely unique due to the fact that the moly in it is solubilized which provides superior performance to other greases containing the black solid form of moly, molybdenum disulfide.

Technical Details & Test Data

Performance Characteristics
  • Versatile multipurpose grease for all applications.
  • Moly-d outperforms molysulfide in side-by-side test results.
  • Exhibits superior anti-friction & anti-oxidant properties.
  • Excellent thermal stability.
  • In-field service show increased load carrying & less wear.
  • Extreme pressure grease.
  • Non-active sulfur will not corrode yellow metals.
  • Non-melt grease for very high temperature operation.
  • Engineered to resist rust, oxidation, and corrosion.
  • Keeps operating temperatures down.
  • Exceptional water resistance for water washout & spray-off.
  • Very tacky for excellent adhesion to parts to be lubricated.
  • Superior shear stability properties compared to other greases.
  • Excellent resistance to bleeding.

Armor Plate is available in both No. 1 and No. 2 NLGI grades. No. 2 has a relatively heavy consistency, but No. 1 has a considerably softer consistency for certain applications such as excellent pumpability at subfreezing temperatures and automatic lubrication.
