GSA-6000
Food grade industrial grease 100% synthetic

Description

The GSA-6000 is a synthetic, superior quality food industry grease which outperforms lithium, aluminum and polyurea base standard greases of the same viscosity.

Characteristics and Benefits

This formula is EXCLUSIVE to Prolab  

The GSA-6000 unique formulation includes such elements as:

- Overbased calcium sulfonate complex
- Prolab Antifriction Treatment 
- Superior quality synthetic oil
- Superior quality adherence agents

GSA-6000 food grade grease formula reaches an EXCEPTIONAL LEVEL of PERFORMANCE 
In all season, it reduces friction, protects against rust, corrosion and oxidation, provides exceptional moisture, wear and load resistance as well as excellent thermal and mechanical stability. Even though the GSA-6000 food grade synthetic grease is classified as NLGI 2, it has pumpability characteristics similar to those of NLGI 0 grade: it is best suited for high rotational speeds (between 3000 and 10 000 rpm).

The GSA-6000 food grade synthetic grease is both POLYVALENT and ECONOMICAL
Encompasses three NLGI grades, thus allowing for reduced grease inventories and less frequent lubricating jobs and, consequently, less energy and grease consumption.

The GSA-6000 food grade synthetic grease is PRACTICAL and SAFE TO USE
It has approval from NSF (H1 - acceptable as lubricant with incidental food contact) , and also CFIA approved. It contains no contaminants harmful to health or the environment. It is offered in a variety of sizes.

Types of Application

The GSA-6000 food grade synthetic grease is a must for every type of business operating in the food industry.

Directions for Use

Always use GSA-6000 food grade synthetic grease in reference to the equipment manufacturer's manual

Warning

Avoid unneeded contact with food during application. Use the minimum required quantity. Whenever performing a grease change, make sure to validate the compatibility of the various greases used (refer to PROLAB's grease compatibility chart).
