**
TRIAX ATLAS 600 Synthetic Grease is a one of a kind ultra high performance synthetic grease designed for virtually all multi-purpose and heavy duty applications in both regular and severe service. This product is built from the ground up with high viscosity base oils and top tier additive content for exceptional all around performance and stability. It contains a full range of corrosion inhibitors, EP additives, adhesion improvers and oxidation inhibitors. It is designed to stay in place, prevent metal to metal contact in virtually all applications. High mechanical stability and load carrying capacity allows its use in severe service heavy duty applications such as mining, agriculture and construction. High temperature rating ensures performance in high temperature disc brake wheel bearings and high ambient temperatures
APPLICATIONS
- A wide range of automotive and industrial wheel bearings
- Wheel bearings of many kinds, including disc brakes
- U Joints, • 5th Wheels semi truck couplings • Roller bearings • Pinions, suspension and ball joints
- Extreme pressure locations and continuously heavily loaded components
- MARINE: Wide range of marine applications where frequent contact with salt or fresh water is expected
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
- Extraordinary mechanical stability under high loads and torque,
- Exceptional adhesion in all kinds of applications, stays in place
- Extremely wide operational temperature range -40 F to 450 F in continuous operation
- Excellent corrosion protection against water, even against salt water
- Outstanding EP ( Extreme Pressure ) performance
- Over 626 F (324 C) high temperature dropping point
- Virtually waterproof less than 2% washout in direct contact with water
- Nearly zero separation
- Excellent oxidation stability and long term durablity
- Lasts 2 to 3 times longer lithium complex greases
- Classified as GC-LB – chassis and wheel bearing applications

CALCIUM SULFONATE vs LITHIUM COMPLEX
TRIAX high performance greases have made a totalconversion to Calcium
Sulfonate Complex (CSX), starting Nov 2022.
What does Calcium Sulfonate Complex offer that Lithium Complex does not?
Better thermal stability
Improved EP load bearing capacity (30-50% higher) Extreme protection against
water Much higher dropping point Improved mechanical stability
