Lubriplate® Lithplex brick grease is recommended to meet the lubrication requirements of open slot or open well type bearings where the brick grease rides directly on the bearing shaft. The rotating motion of the bearing shaft wipes a film of lubricant onto the bearing surfaces keeping it properly lubricated. Lubriplate® Lithplex brick grease comes in 4 lb bricks (12 bricks/Case). These bricks are easily cut into smaller pieces to place in the bearing opening. The size of the piece should be small enough to allow freedom of movement of the block while riding on the bearing surface. From time to time, it is also a good practice to turn or rotate these pieces. Also, do not over load or over pack the bearing opening or slot. Applications for Lubriplate® Lithplex brick grease are commonly found at rock quarries and paper mills. Its 525 °F dropping point is a major advantage.
