Grease – High-Performance Industrial Lubricating Greases — Export from Iran
Lubricating Grease is a semi-solid lubricant formulated for long-term protection of bearings, joints, and moving parts in harsh operating conditions. Our range includes Calcium Grease and Lithium Grease, designed to provide excellent water resistance, mechanical stability, and oxidation protection.
These greases are suitable for a wide range of industrial, automotive, and agricultural applications, offering reliable performance under high loads, moisture exposure, and extreme temperatures.
Note: Not for high-speed precision bearings unless specified. Avoid contamination with other grease types.
🛢️ Janis Group Lubricating Grease Capability: We supply premium Calcium and Lithium lubricating greases formulated to meet strict NLGI and DIN specifications. Every batch undergoes rigorous testing for penetration, dropping point, and mechanical stability, with SGS pre-shipment inspection, serving automotive, agricultural, and heavy industrial sectors across global markets.

Applications
- Rolling Element Bearings: Electric motors, pumps, fans, and wheels
- Chassis Points: Ball joints, tie rods, and U-joints in automotive
- Agricultural & Construction: Heavy machinery, mining equipment, and tractors
- General Industrial: Lubrication of various bearings, gears, and sliding surfaces
Which Grease Type Fits Your Application?
Calcium Grease
Key Strength: Superior water resistance and mechanical stability
Choose this if: Your equipment operates in wet, humid, or marine environments where water washout is a primary concern.
Typical buyers: Agricultural machinery operators, marine chassis maintenance, and general wet-environment applications.
Lithium Grease
Key Strength: High dropping point (≥185°C) and excellent thermal stability
Choose this if: You need a versatile, all-purpose grease that can handle moderate to high temperatures and varying loads.
Typical buyers: Automotive workshops, electric motor manufacturers, and general industrial maintenance teams.
NLGI Consistency Guide
NLGI 1: Soft – Ideal for centralized pumping systems.
NLGI 2: Standard – The global benchmark for general-purpose bearings.
NLGI 3/4: Firm – Best for high-temperature, slow-moving, or heavy-load applications to prevent leakage.
Key Notes
- Excellent Water Resistance: Especially in Calcium grades, ideal for wet or humid environments.
- High Dropping Point: Lithium grades resist softening at elevated temperatures (up to 120°C operating range).
- Anti-Wear & Corrosion Protection: Reduces friction and prevents rust on metal surfaces.
- Mechanical Stability: Resists softening and breakdown under continuous shear stress.
- Storage: Keep in original sealed containers in a cool, dry place. Shelf life is typically 2–3 years.
- Pre-shipment inspection by SGS included for every shipment.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Calcium grease offers superior water resistance for wet environments but has a lower dropping point (~98°C). Lithium grease has a higher dropping point (≥185°C) and is the global standard for all-purpose, higher-temperature applications.
NLGI grades indicate grease consistency (hardness). NLGI 1 is soft (for centralized pumping), NLGI 2 is standard all-purpose, NLGI 3 is firmer (for higher temps/speeds), and NLGI 4 is very firm (for slow, heavy loads).
Standard Lithium grease has moderate water resistance. For continuous water exposure, Calcium grease or specialized Lithium Complex greases are recommended due to superior water washout resistance.
Minimum order is 200 MT per shipment, typically packed in 400g/1kg cartridges, 15-18kg pails, or 175-200kg steel drums, loaded into 20ft or 40ft containers.
When stored in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry, indoor environment, lubricating grease typically has a shelf life of 2 to 3 years.
