Overview
MOLYKOTE® BG-555 is a high-quality grease with a long performance lubricant life that performs well at elevated temperatures and in high humidity where conventional lubricants fail. MOLYKOTE® BG-555 Low Noise Grease is manufactured in a dust-free facility, removing impurities and allowing it to achieve a quieter bearing performance and enhanced surface protection.
MOLYKOTE® BG-555 Grease performs several times longer than competitive mineral oil lubricant solutions in roller bearing applications across a wide temperature range of −40°C to 150°C (−40°F to 302°F). MOLYKOTE® BG-555 Low Noise Grease significantly suppresses vibration, squeak, rattle, and harshness for components while in operation.
