Overview
HiTEC® 312G additive contains a high concentration of sulfur for grease applications requiring extreme-pressure performance and high load-carrying capability. The sulfurized iso-butylene technology is compatible with most common grease thickener systems, including lithium and lithium complex soap. It also demonstrates low reactivity with copper alloys. Additionally, HiTEC® 312G additive shows synergistic performance with anti-wear additive technologies like zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP).

Features & Benefits
- Ashless chemistry Excellent extreme-pressure (EP) protection Very high load-carrying capability Low reactivity to copper-containing alloys High sulfur content and activity Excellent booster for FZG, 4-ball weld, and other EP tests Suitable for formulating with lithium, lithium complex, and other common thickeners
Problems Solved
In highly loaded grease applications, metal-on-metal contact, friction, and wear can occur without effective extreme-pressure additives. Sulfur-based chemistries are commonly used as extreme-pressure agents, but many technologies have low sulfur content and activity or react with yellow metals, causing staining and corrosion.
