SEAL 7M4236 - Caterpillar

Caterpillar provides greases in order to cover a variety of applications and extreme temperature conditions. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for part numbers and for available sizes of containers.Note: Some greases may not be used with other greases. When a commercial grease is used, ensure that the grease is compatible with the grease that is currently used in the system. If the commercial grease is not compatible, the system must be purged. If any questions arise concerning the compatibility of a grease, consult the supplier.Multipurpose Greases
Multipurpose Lithium Complex Grease (MPGL)
Multipurpose Lithium Complex Grease (MPGL) is a general purpose lithium complex grease for medium-duty applications. This product has good characteristics at high temperatures such as a dropping point of 260 °C (500 °F). MPGL contains unleaded extreme pressure additives, antiwear inhibitors, and corrosion inhibitors that provide extra protection in the following applications:
Construction
Agricultural
AutomotiveMPGL meets the requirements for extended service intervals of automotive chassis points. MPGL also meets the requirements for extended service intervals of wheel bearings with disc brakes in automobiles, in vans and in light trucks. This product meets the NLGI certification of "GC-LB". MPGL is also available in a NLGI No. 2 grade. Normal operating temperatures for this product are −28 to 149 °C (−18 to 300 °F). This product is also available as a white lithium complex grease.Multipurpose Lithium Complex Grease with Molybdenum (MPGM)
Multipurpose Lithium Complex Grease with Molybdenum (MPGM) is a general purpose lithium complex grease that is used for light-duty applications and for medium-duty applications. The MPGM is available in the following grades: NLGI No. 2 grade and NLGI No. 0 grade. The MPGM is strengthened with a molybdenum disulfide and a polymer for extra lubrication and protection. MPGM contains unleaded additives. MPGM also contains antiwear inhibitors, rust inhibitors, and corrosion inhibitors that are for protection and lubrication in many environments. The MPGM is formulated with a base fluid that has high viscosity. The MPGM has the following features:
Increased protection against water washout
Increased retention
Resistance to heavy loadsThis product is recommended for heavily loaded pin joints and for journal bearings. This product meets the certification of "GC-LB". Normal operating temperatures for this product are −28 to 149 °C (−18 to 300 °F) for the NLGI No. 0 grade. Normal operating temperatures for this product are −18 to 149 °C (0 to 300 °F) for the NLGI No. 2 grade.Note: If MPGM is not available, use a multipurpose type grease which contains three to five percent molybdenum.Special Purpose Grease (SPG)
Bearing Lubricant (SPG)
Bearing Lubricant (SPG) is available in a NLGI No. 2 grade with a polyurea thickener. This grease is recommended for high temperature antifriction bearings in the following applications: electric starting motors, alternators, fan drives and generators. The Bearing Lubricant (SPG) has an effective operating range of −29 to 177 °C (−20 to 350 °F).Water and Temperature Resistant Grease (WTR)
