Mobil SHC 100 Synthetic Aircraft Wheel Bearing Grease

Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 is a supreme performance synthetic grease which combines the unique features of a polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base fluid with those of a high quality lithium complex soap thickener. The thickener system provides a high dropping point, excellent resistance to water wash, and a tenacious structural stability. The unique physical properties of the synthetic base oil, combined with selected additives, provide outstanding protection against wear, rust, corrosion, and high temperature degradation. The wax-free feature of the synthetic base oil allows for low-temperature mobility/pumpability and low starting and running torque values. Also, the traction property of the synthetic base fluid is considerably lower than mineral, allowing for temperature reductions in the load zone of rolling element bearings. Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 is the product of choice for aircraft wheel bearing applications.

A key factor in the development of Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 is the close contact between ExxonMobil product engineers and key OEMs to ensure that the lubricant would provide exceptional performance in the continually evolving equipment designs.  This work has helped to confirm the results from ExxonMobil laboratory tests showing the exceptional performance of  Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 including longer grease life, enhanced bearing protection and bearing life, wide temperature range of application, and the potential for improved mechanical efficiency and energy savings.

To combat high thermal exposure of the oil, ExxonMobil product formulators chose proprietary synthetic base oils for Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 because of their exceptional thermal/oxidative resistance potential.  A state-of-the-art lithium complex thickener technology was developed and used specific additives to enhance performance.

Mobil Aviation Grease SHC 100 offers the following features and benefits:

High viscosity index (VI) base stock with no wax content Outstanding high temperature and low temperature performance: Wide application temperature ranges, with excellent protection at high temperatures and low torque, easy start-up at low temperatures.
Thicker fluid films protecting against wear of equipment parts operating at high temperature.

Excellent protection against wear, rust, and corrosion: Reduced downtime and maintenance costs because of reduced replacement of equipment parts

Excellent structural stability and oxidation resistance: Long intervals between re-lubrication and improved bearing life

Low traction coefficient: Potential improved mechanical efficiency  and reduced energy consumption

Outstanding structural stability in the presence of water: Excellent grease retention on parts in hostile wet environments

Low volatility: Little loss of lubricating oil
