Industrial and Automotive Greases in South Africa

Premium grease solutions for reliable equipment protection.

Greases are essential for high-load, slow-speed and harsh operating environments where liquid lubricants cannot provide enough protection. From bearings and bushings to chassis components, couplings and heavy machinery, the right grease gives long-lasting lubrication, resists water washout and protects against wear, corrosion and mechanical failure.

At LUBELINE™, we supply premium industrial greases, automotive greases and trusted products from the Shell Gadus™ grease range and other leading lubricant brands for industrial, mining, agricultural, transport and heavy-duty applications.

What Makes a High-Quality Grease?

Industrial grease is a semi-solid lubricant formulated from:

  • Base oils: mineral, synthetic or biodegradable oils selected for operating temperature and viscosity requirements
  • Thickeners: including lithium, lithium complex, calcium sulfonate, aluminium complex and polyurea systems
  • Performance additives: designed to improve oxidation resistance, wear protection and extreme-pressure performance

This combination lets heavy-duty greases stay in place under shock loads, high pressure, wet conditions and extreme operating environments.

Common NLGI Grades of Grease

Choosing the correct NLGI grade improves lubrication performance, reduces wear and extends service intervals.

  • NLGI 000 and 00: fluid greases used in centralised lubrication systems
  • NLGI 0 and 1: softer greases suited to cold climates and enclosed gearboxes, such as those in industrial gear oil applications
  • NLGI 2: the most common grade for wheel bearings, electric motors and general industrial use
  • NLGI 3: firmer grease for high-temperature and heavy-load applications

Bearing, Extreme Pressure and Water-Resistant Greases

LUBELINE™ also supplies bearing greases, extreme pressure greases, mining greases and water-resistant industrial greases, backed by dependable supply and technical expertise throughout South Africa.
