PRODUCT BENEFITS
Unsurpassed E.P. and Antiwear Performance—JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM was specifically designed to show unsurpassed E.P. and antiwear characteristics. The heavy base fluid helps increase film strength and maintain a proper fluid film in heavily loaded, slow-moving applications. The extreme-pressure and antiwear performance is illustrated with Timken OK Values (ASTM D 2509) of 60 pounds or greater and 4-Ball EP (ASTM D 2596) LWI results of over 60 kgf with a weld point of 500 kgf. 4-Ball Wear (ASTM D 2266) performance is equally impressive with typical wear scars of less than 0.40 mm.
Protects Against Rust and Corrosion—The calcium sulfonate thickener system of the JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM provides excellent natural rust and corrosion protection. JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM easily passes the standard Corrosion Preventive Properties Test (ASTM D 1743). A severe, Salt Fog Test (ASTM B 117) yields passing performance in excess of 300 hours, something few food grade greases of any other technology can achieve.
Outstanding Mechanical Stability—JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM demonstrates excellent mechanical stability, showing little change in Cone Penetration (ASTM D 217) or consistency after 100,000 strokes. There is no evidence of shear breakdown in the Roll Stability Test (ASTM D 1831), even in an extended high-temperature, modified version to increase the test’s severity.
Thermal and Oxidative Stability—The thermal and oxidative stability of JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM means that excellent performance in most high-temperature applications can be achieved without specialized grease. A dropping point (ASTM D 2265) of 572°F (300°C) means that Halo-Guard FG-PM is the highest temperature-capable, heavy-duty, food-grade grease on the market. JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM will outperform nearly all industrial nonfood-grade greases in high-temperature oxidation stability, a remarkable achievement for a food-grade, NSF H1 grease!
Excellent Water Resistance—Water resistance is of particular importance in food-grade grease applications. Few industrial applications are subject to the severe process and sanitation water and chemical contamination inherent in modern food and beverage plants. JAX Halo- Guard FG-PM is one of the most water-resistant food-grade greases on the market with Water Washout (ASTM D 1264) results of 0.42% weight loss.
Contains Micronox® – A first in food-grade lubricants, JAX Micronox® has proven especially effective in protecting JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM Greases over extended lubrication intervals.
APPLICATIONS
JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM satisfies the lubricant demands in nearly any heavily loaded food-plant machinery application including pellet mills. This makes JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM the ideal grease for difficult, highly loaded, greased gear and bearing applications. As a ‘Heavy-Duty’ food-grade grease, JAX Halo-Guard FG-PM can extend food-grade integrity to shop and plant equipment including fork trucks, conveyors, material handling equipment, presses, grain presses and packaging machines.
COMPATIBILITY
Extensive grease compatibility studies have shown JAX Halo- Guard FG-PM possesses very good compatibility with the vast majority of the most popular food-grade greases currently on the market.
