Why choose Admax-L3
Duckhams Admax-L3 is a lithium soap-based, multi-purpose grease made from high-quality hydrotreated base oils and performance additives. Lithium soap greases provide good structural stability, resistance to water washout, and effective protection against wear and corrosion in automotive applications. Duckhams Admax-L3 is mainly for plain or rolling element applications operating under low load, or where shock loading is not expected, such as wheel bearings, chassis points, universal joints and industrial equipment. It may be suitable for passenger cars, vans, trucks, farm tractors, general industrial equipment and machine tools.
- Good mechanical stability means that the grease will remain in grade and stay where applied longer than a grease with poor mechanical stability, extending the re-lubrication interval.
- Outstanding water resistance makes the grease suitable for use in applications where limited exposure to water can be expected.
- Good thermal stability means that the grease can be used at temperatures up to 130 °C without failing.
- Good anti-corrosion and anti-rust properties ensure that the grease protects against corrosion and rust, even in applications where limited exposure to water can be expected.
- Good pumpability gives the grease good dispensing characteristics.
