Tips When Buying Mobilgrease XHP 222
1. Confirm the NLGI Grade
Do not simply request “Mobil grease.” Specify Mobilgrease XHP 222 NLGI 2 to avoid receiving another grease grade.
2. Confirm the Exact Product
XHP 222, XHP 222 Special, XHP 221 and XHP 223 are different products. Confirm the exact product before ordering.
3. Check the Machine Lubrication Manual
Always compare the grease specification against the OEM lubrication requirements for the machine or component.
4. Avoid Unnecessary Grease Mixing
Different grease thickener systems and formulations may not be compatible. When changing grease type, follow the equipment manufacturer’s or lubricant supplier’s recommendations.
5. Check Storage Conditions
Store grease in its original sealed container and protect it from excessive heat, water contamination, dust and other contaminants.
6. Buy From a Reliable Supplier
For critical mining and industrial applications, verify product authenticity, packaging, batch information and supplier traceability.
