CV Joint Grease (Lithium Soap)
Greyhound Lubricants Lithium Moly EP2 CV Joint Grease is a high-temperature NLGI 2 grease formulated with a lithium soap thickener and molybdenum disulfide for shock-loaded, high-movement joints. It is well-suited for CV joints, universal joints, and driveline components that require frequent articulation and boundary lubrication. The moly content provides additional protection during metal-to-metal contact, helping extend joint life under vibration and impact. Typical operating range: -40 °C to +120 °C.
Application: Multi-purpose applications, CV Joints, pins, sliding bearings
Greyhound™ Li-M2 EP2 grease is a multipurpose lithium-based grease containing molybdenum disulfide, the grease is intended for lubrication of different friction units of industrial equipment and vehicle mechanisms (all types of antifriction bearings, including sliding, rolling bearings, and swivel joints (constant-velocity joints), etc.), that operates under conditions of high loads, vibrations and extreme pressures. The grease is a homogeneous ointment varying from light grey to black, slightly fibrous, smooth-textured composition, containing Extreme Pressure (EP) additives.
Greyhound™ Li-M2 EP2 can be used in both automotive and industrial applications ranging from multipurpose to a very specific application. The grease ensures the lubrication of components, working under very heavy or shock loads, like bearings, slide-bearings, axles, and joints. It can be used for the lubrication of electromotors or ventilators. Temperature range: -40°C to +120°C.
The grease is suitable for boundary lubrication at high pressures and high temperatures. In case of accidental overheating, the presence of molybdenum disulfide will guarantee good lubrication, and avoid any jamming or sticking.
Specifications: NLGI 2, DIN 51502: KF2K-40
Benefits:
- The Multi-Purpose character of the grease may replace a wide range of greases, allowing for a decrease in the number of stock items, achieving economies of scale, and simplification of maintenance.
- It forms a durable protective layer, resulting in a reduction of maintenance and downtime costs.
- Excellent mechanical stability avoiding ejection or loss of consistency during operation.
- Excellent bonding properties to metal.
- Grease forms a durable lubrication film, resulting in a reduction of maintenance & downtime costs
- Miscible with most other conventional soap greases.
- Good thermal stability, leading to high resistance to temperature variations.
- Greyhound™ Li-M2 EP 2 does not contain lead, or other heavy metals considered harmful to human health and the environment.

CV Joint (Calcium Sulfonate Soap)
Greyhound Lubricants Calcium Sulphonate Grease CS-CX 300 M2 EP2 is a heavy-duty NLGI 2 grease designed for high loads, shock, water ingress, and contamination. It offers excellent mechanical stability, natural extreme-pressure performance, and superior corrosion resistance. Ideal for pins, bushes, pivot points, chassis components, driveline parts, and severe-duty 4×4 or off-road applications where durability and weather resistance are critical. Continuous operating range -20 °C to +160 °C, with short-term exposure up to +190 °C.
Application: Severe-duty applications, shock-loaded components, water-resistant lubrication
Greyhound™ CS-CX 300 M2 EP2 is a premium, extreme-pressure, non-melting, multi-purpose grease formulated using advanced calcium sulphonate complex technology, enhanced with molybdenum disulphide for additional boundary lubrication. It is designed to provide reliable protection under high loads, vibration, and intermittent or oscillating movement.
The inclusion of molybdenum disulfide supports effective boundary lubrication during conditions of metal-to-metal contact, helping to reduce wear where full lubricant films may be disrupted. The grease offers excellent resistance to water wash-out and corrosion, making it well-suited to wet, dusty, and contaminated operating environments.
Greyhound™ CS-CX 300 M2 EP2 is recommended for severe-duty automotive and industrial extreme-pressure applications where additional protection is required for sliding, oscillating, or shock-loaded components. It performs reliably in demanding service conditions, offering strong film strength, good mechanical stability, and dependable protection under vibration and load reversals.
