Primrose Armor Plate with Moly-D Construction and Industrial Grade Grease is a heavy, tacky, green moly lubricant which provides excellent stability and unsurpassed high pressure performance especially for hot ambient and operating temperatures. Armor Plate Construction & Industrial grade grease is entirely unique due to the fact that the moly in it is a compound which provides superior performance to other greases containing the black form of moly (molybdenum disulfide).
Packaged in single, box of 10 and case of 50.
This grease is especially recommended for heavy duty applications in construction and mining equipment in temperatures or operating conditions above freezing.
It is also recommended for extremely high temperature industrial applications in brick and tile plants and steel mills, and where exceptional water resistance is required such as water treatment plants.
For temperatures below freezing or extremely cold temperatures, 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D in No. 2 and No. 1 grades or 357 Armor Plate with Moly-D is recommended.

Common questions about 327-C Armor Plate Grease with Moly-D / NLGI #3
-
What is 327C Armor Plate grease used for?
327C Armor Plate with Moly-D is Primrose's NLGI No. 3 construction and industrial grade grease, especially recommended for heavy duty construction and mining equipment operating above freezing. It is also recommended for extremely high temperature industrial uses in brick and tile plants and steel mills, and where exceptional water resistance is needed, such as water treatment plants.
-
Can I use 327C Armor Plate grease in cold weather?
327C Armor Plate is recommended for temperatures or operating conditions above freezing; for below freezing or extremely cold temperatures, Primrose recommends 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D in the No. 2 or No. 1 grade instead. The 327C TDS describes it as a heavy, tacky grease that provides excellent stability especially for hot ambient and operating temperatures.
-
What parts can I grease with 327C Armor Plate?
Primrose lists 327C Armor Plate for king pins, kiln car bearings, pivot pins, coal stoker shaft bearings, bucket body hinge pins, sleeve bearings, ball joints, pillow block bearings, universal joints, fifth wheels, open gears, sliding surfaces, sludge dewatering floc press bearings, wheel bearings and air hammers.
-
Will 327C Armor Plate grease melt at high temperatures?
No, 327C Armor Plate is an inorganic base grease that will not melt the way soap base greases do, and its TDS lists the dropping point as no melt. Primrose says this non-melt feature prevents loss of the lubricant due to melting in high temperature applications where the bases of other greases turn to liquid.
-
What is the difference between 327C and 327-2 Armor Plate?
327C Armor Plate is the heavier NLGI No. 3 grade, while 327-2 is NLGI No. 2. Primrose gives 327C a heavy, tacky consistency for heavy duty equipment that needs exceptional stay-put properties and high load carrying capacity, and recommends it for heavy duty construction and mining equipment above freezing. For below freezing or extremely cold temperatures, Primrose recommends 327 in the No. 2 or No. 1 grade.
