Low friction grease for constant velocity universal joints, particularly plunging type joints that is compatible with silicone elastomer boots

摘要

A silicon elastomer compatible constant velocity joint grease comprises a urea grease composed of a lubricating oil and a urea thickener and an effective amount of a friction reducing additive package comprising vermiculite, molybdenum oxysulfide dithiocarbamate, polyphenylene sulfide and potassium triborate. The additive package solids have particle sizes below about 40 microns.
