Industrial questions and answers

  • Which Primrose grease should I use for high temperature equipment like kilns and steel mills?

    Use a non-melt grease such as Primrose 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D or 777 Syn-O-Gen for high heat. Primrose recommends 327C (NLGI No. 3) for extremely high temperature uses in brick and tile plants and steel mills, and lists 777 (minus 40 F to 550 F operating range) for brick and tile kilns and lithographic ovens. By comparison, 311 Blue Max No. 2 tops out at about 280 F.

  • What NLGI grade of Primrose grease should I use?

    Match the grade your equipment calls for: Primrose 311 Blue Max comes in NLGI No. 0, 1 and 2, 327 Armor Plate in No. 1, 2 and 3 (327C), and 777 Syn-O-Gen in No. 0 and 2. Primrose points to softer grades (327-1 and soft 311 grades) for cold weather and automatic or centralized lube systems, and to the heavier 327C for heavy duty construction and mining equipment above freezing.

  • Which Primrose oils can I use where an NSF H-1 food grade lubricant is required?

    Primrose 216 Enviro Blend Food Grade Hydraulic Oil and 216G Enviro Blend Food Grade Gear Oil may be used where NSF (formerly USDA) category H-1 lubricants, for incidental contact with food, are recommended. Primrose makes 216 in Light (ISO 32) and Heavy (ISO 100) for hydraulic systems, air compressors and bearings, and 216G is an ISO 460, AGMA 7 Compounded gear oil for gearboxes, worm and spur gears.

  • What Primrose lubricant should I use on open gears, chains and wire rope?

    Use Primrose 548 Armor Plate for chains, cables and wire rope, 555 Armor Plate for exposed open gears, and 556 Emerald Shield for large shrouded open gears. 548 is an oil-type lubricant that needs no heating, 555 is an NLGI No. 2 EP grease for heavy, generally slow-moving or stationary equipment, and 556 is an extremely viscous synthetic fluid that will not build up on gears or shrouds.

  • Which Primrose product do I use in my hydraulic system: 216, 532T or 480M?

    Primrose 216 Food Grade Hydraulic Oil (ISO 32 or ISO 100) is the oil itself; 532T Seal Saver and 480M are supplements for hydraulic oil. Add 532T at 5% to 10%, or 15% for significant leaks, to condition seals, except in fire resistant, polyalkylene glycol, polyol ester or silicone fluids. Mix 480M at 1:20 for film strength and Moly-D, but not in automatic transmission, wet clutch or friction drive fluids.
