1 This standard prescribes the requirements and method of sampling and test for multipurpose grease suitable for applications on all automotive vehicles and also as wheel bearing grease operating at temperatures ranging from -20 °C to 120 °C.
2 The second revision has been brought out to keep pace with the latest technological developments and international practices. In this revision, the following changes have been made: a) Title of the specification ‘Lithium Base Grease for Automotive Purpose’ has been modified to ‘Multipurpose Grease for Automotive Applications’, as any soap-based material can be used to meet the various requirements given in Table 1. This modification is done, in light of current requirements and advancement in the field of lubrication technology in the country and also to eliminate/reduce spurious product suppliers from the market. b) The requirements of free organic acidity, elastomer NBRL compatibility, life performance of wheel bearing and low temperature torque have been modified as relevant to the industry/based on the end use applications etc. c) Four-ball weld load test has been also incorporated to check the extreme properties for grade 3 in which 3 percent Molybdenum disulphide is used. d) Cl
