• Including conveyors and pug mills of asphalt plants, ball mills
of ore crushing
• Wheel bearings and chassis points

Advantages:
• Synthetic XL 102M provides year round protection even at
extremely low and high temperatures
• “ColourSense” indicator - grease changes colour from its
original blue as the temperature rises above 120°C. Colour
changes thru green , then to brown and finally to orange as
the temperature of the application rises. Useful to indicate
possible faulty equipment, excessively high temperatures and
a need for more frequent regreasing.
• Superior high temperature performance and oxidation
resistance
• Excellent load carrying ability
• Excellent low temperature dispensability from the entire XL
family of greases
• Compatibility with most other types of greases (thickeners)
• Outstanding water resistance
• Temperature range from -45 to 170°C

Performance Specifications:
• Darina XL greases meet NLGI GC/LB wheel bearing and
chassis requirements
• Registered with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)
under Lubricants: General, for use where contact with food
will not occur; avoid food contamination during application
and storage.
