NGLI Certified
What does it mean to be NLGI certified?
Known as the National Lubricating Grease Institute (NLGI), is a not profit organization that aims to serve the lubricating grease industry by helping to identify acceptable greases to be used as a chassis lubricant (LB) and greases that are acceptable for both chassis and wheel bearing lubrication (GC-LB).
The NLGI number indicates the consistency of the grease as shown by its worked penetration value. The penetration test determines the depth to which a standard cone enters a grease sample in tenths of millimeters. Each NLGI grade represents a defined range of worked penetration values.
Why is it important to be certified?
Customers can have a peace of mind when using a well certified product as it has been tested and ensured to be safe for use.
This also means the product sold is at a high level of quality which helps you to protect your equipment and allows it to perform at its best, increasing productivity and efficiency.
