FAM FOR LPD 2
DIN 51 502:KP 2K-30; ISO L-X CCHB 2
FOR LPD 2 is a lithium-based lubricating grease fortified with extreme-pressure (EP) additives, specifically formulated for long-term lubrication of wheel bearings in motor vehicles. This grease is engineered to provide extended service intervals that significantly exceed those of conventional greases, reducing maintenance frequency and associated labor costs.
The standout feature of FOR LPD 2 is its exceptional longevity in wheel bearing applications. The lubricant change interval for passenger car wheel bearing lubrication exceeds 100,000 kilometers of travel — a testament to the grease's outstanding oxidation resistance, mechanical stability, and wear protection over extended periods. Good lubrication performance is maintained in bearings operating at speeds up to 3,000 rpm and for DN values (bearing bore diameter x speed) up to 600,000.
The EP additive package provides enhanced load-carrying capacity compared to standard multipurpose greases. This is particularly important for wheel bearings, which must handle combined radial and axial loads during cornering, braking, and driving over uneven surfaces. The EP chemistry forms a protective boundary film on metal surfaces under heavy loads, preventing wear and extending bearing life.
Beyond wheel bearings, FOR LPD 2 is also suitable for lubrication of other chassis and undercarriage points on motor vehicles, as well as agricultural and construction machinery where long-term EP lubrication is required. The grease is compatible with common elastomeric seal materials, ensuring it does not cause hardening, swelling, or degradation of bearing seals. With an operating temperature range of -30°C to +130°C, FOR LPD 2 is a proven, long-lasting solution for vehicle wheel bearing lubrication.
