Overview
MOLYKOTE® BG-20 Bearing Grease is a high-quality, synthetic ester-based grease used for lubrication points with heavier loads performing at high temperatures and speeds. MOLYKOTE® BG-20 also contains performance additives for enhanced extreme pressure (EP), anti-wear (AW), and oxidation inhibition.
MOLYKOTE® BG-20 is particularly well suited for long-term lubrication with a low tendency to evaporate or oxidize compared to conventional bearing greases.
