Versatile Grease Offers Long-Lasting Protection

With its versatility and long-lasting performance, Almatek® General Purpose Lubricant (1232) increases uptime, reduces maintenance costs and lowers lubrication costs. It is a distinctive red color, which shows when fresh lubricant forces out old material. Almatek 1232 is recommended for use in construction, marine, mining, industrial and various other heavy-duty equipment applications.

Available Container Size	N/A Quarter Drum
GHS Statement	N/A For commercial and professional use only
Beneficial Qualities	N/A *Cost Reductions* Provides long-lasting performance Extends relubrication intervals Lowers lubricant costs Reduces maintenance and parts replacement costs Is extremely versatile Simplifies inventory Reduces risk of misapplication *Performance* Clings to metal and protects metal surfaces Resists wash-out or pound-out Provides excellent protection against shock loading Minimizes friction, maintaining cooler operating temperatures Can be applied easily at lower temperatures with standard equipment Maintains exceptional lubricating qualities at higher temperatures Increases equipment uptime *Protection* Provides superior rust resistance and oxidation stability Protects against wear and corrosion without causing extreme fluid friction
Available Grades	N/A NLGI 2
Proprietary Additives	N/A LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Almatek® General Purpose Lubricant contains Almasol. Almasol® solid wear reducing additive is able to withstand extremely heavy loads, chemical attack and temperatures up to 1,900°F (1,038°C). It is attracted to metal surfaces, forming a microscopic layer but not building on itself or affecting clearances. Almasol minimizes metal-to-metal contact and the resulting friction, heat and wear.
