Grease 6, Multi-Purpose Mineral Base, from AeroShell

AeroShell Grease 6 has a useful temperature range of –40°C to +121°C, good load carrying ability and is inexpensive, which makes it suitable for use as a general grease for piston engined aircraft.

AEROSHELL greases have been developed for a wide variety of aircraft lubrication applications. Shell's innovative Microgel thickener technology is used in several AEROSHELL greases to provide greases without the temperature limitations imposed by soap type thickeners. Microgel thickened greases also exhibit excellent load carrying ability and maintain consistency with variations in temperature. These factors help to make Microgell greases particularly suitable for a range of multi-purpose applications commonly found on aircraft. The multi-purpose features of many of the AEROSHELL greases enable users to lubricate their aircraft with fewer greases thus reducing inventory cost and minimizing the risk of a misapplication of the wrong grease.
