Product Description

Exxon RONEX MP is a premium quality multipurpose grease that can be used in a wide range of automotive and industrial applications. RONEX MP consists of a mineral oil base fluid thickened with a lithium complex soap thickener, and contains performance-enhancing additives. RONEX MP grease has excellent performance over a wide temperature range, and provides moderate load carrying and extreme pressure properties. In addition it is resistant to water, and provides protection against corrosion. The grease has good oxidation and thermal stability. RONEX MP is compatible with most elastomer seal materials. RONEX MP is an NLGI Grade 2 grease.

RONEX MP grease may be used in industrial applications in bearings, gears and couplings that require the use of water resistant, extreme pressure grease. It may also be used in electric motors of the NEMA insulation Class A and B types. RONEX MP is an excellent all round automotive grease, it can be used as a chassis grease for extended lubrication intervals, as well as a wheel bearing grease. The high thermal stability of the grease means that it is ideally suited to wheel bearings of disc brake vehicles, where high temperatures are generated during severe braking. RONEX MP can also be used as a lubricant for ball joints, as it provides good protection from wear, low torque, and protection against water contamination. RONEX MP meets the NLGI GC-LB requirements for wheel bearings and chassis lubrication. RONEX MP has become the grease of choice for many users, especially those with multiple grease applications.



Features and Benefits

RONEX MP grease is a leading member of the RONEX brand of premium quality products that have gained a world-wide reputation for reliability under tough operating conditions. RONEX MP grease is made using a proprietary lithium complex soap thickener, and a high quality paraffinic mineral oil base fluid, along with a balanced package of functional additives that provide reliable quality and service. As with other Exxon brand greases, RONEX MP is manufactured to the highest levels of quality and consistency. RONEX MP offers many performance features including:



  • Well balanced grease properties for multi-purpose applications in many types of industrial and in automotive applications resulting in less grease types needed and related inventory benefits
  • Excellent resistance to high temperature degradation for long service life and extended grease lubrication intervals even in tough situations
  • Very good extreme-pressure and anti-wear properties for protection and potential life extension of bearings and other lubricated mechanisms, including shock load applications
  • Excellent high- and low-temperature performance to minimise cold-weather dispensing problems
  • Good water-resistance properties for reliable grease performance in hostile aqueous environments
  • Manufactured under ExxonMobils stringent Product Quality Manangement System (PQMS) quality control standards

Applications

Application notes: RONEX MP is recommended for application by hand packing or by grease gun. It should not be used in centralised lubrication systems having long feeder lines unless these systems are designed to handle a Grade 2 consistency grease.

RONEX MP is a multi-purpose grease for both industrial and automotive applications operating in a wide range of conditions of temperature, loading and environment. Specific applications include:

  • Industrial - All kinds of plain and rolling element bearings
  • Industrial - Couplings and gears
  • Industrial - Electric motors of the NEMA (National Electric Manufacturers' Association) Insulation Class A and B types
  • Automotive - Truck, bus and construction applications
  • Automotive - Wheel bearings, especially those operating at high temperature, for instance during severe braking with disc brakes
  • Automotive - Ball joints and chassis lubrication
