L-427 SUPER BLU® GREASE

Multipurpose, Extreme-Pressure Lithium Complex Grease

Kendall® L-427 Super Blu Grease is a high-quality, multipurpose, extreme-pressure (EP), lithium complex grease developed for the lubrication of automotive and industrial equipment operating under heavy loads at moderate to high temperatures. This grease is NLGI GC-LB certified for use as a multipurpose automotive wheel bearing and chassis lubricant.

L-427 Super Blu Grease is manufactured with high-quality base oils, a special polymer and a lithium complex soap thickener. It is fortified with EP and antiwear additives, rust and oxidation inhibitors, and a tackifier to provide excellent wear protection, thermal stability at high temperatures, and enhanced resistance to corrosion and water washout. It forms an effective seal to help minimize bearing contamination and provides a high level of adhesion to bearing surfaces for improved retention and reduced leakage.
