FAQs

For general workshop, automotive, and plant grease applications — NLGI 2 lithium grease is the trade default. It works across the typical workshop temperature range (around -20°C to +120°C), applies easily through grease guns, and lubricates most chassis points, ball joints, and non-extreme bearing applications. For higher-temperature applications (over 120°C) — lithium complex or aluminium complex grease. For high-load applications with shock loading — NLGI 2 EP (extreme pressure) grease with molybdenum disulphide. Check the equipment handbook for any OEM-specific grease requirement.

Generally no — different greases use different thickener systems (lithium vs calcium vs polyurea, etc.) that can be incompatible. Mixing incompatible greases causes the structure to break down, the grease to soften and run, and the lubrication to fail. When changing between grease types or brands, purge the old grease completely from the bearing or chassis point before applying the new grease. Within the same thickener family (e.g., one lithium grease to another lithium grease) mixing is generally compatible but not recommended.

For outdoor, agricultural, and water-exposed applications, use a grease with high water resistance and oxidation stability. Calcium sulphonate greases are the standard for marine, agricultural, and off-highway applications — they retain consistency in wet conditions and resist water washout well. Lithium complex with water-resistant additives also works for moderate water exposure. Standard lithium grease tolerates occasional water exposure but is not recommended for prolonged-immersion applications. The product page lists the water-resistance rating.

Yes — all three pack sizes are available across the Shell, Castrol, and Q8 ranges. 400g cartridges are the workshop standard for grease-gun use. 18kg pails are the standard for centralised-lubrication systems and high-volume grease gun applications. 180kg drums supply pumped-grease systems and fleet operations. Trade pricing applies on pail and drum quantities — WhatsApp 07754288583 for a quote on bulk and pallet orders.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase, in original packaging, on orders delivered within the United Kingdom. For damaged-on-arrival items, report within 24 hours with photographs to [email protected] — we will typically arrange collection and replacement at no cost to you. For parts that don't fit your machine, the Fit Guarantee covers a hassle-free return at no cost. For buyer's remorse — you've changed your mind or ordered the wrong item, email us first to obtain a Return Merchandise Number; a restocking fee may apply. Refunds are issued to the original payment method once the return is inspected.

Delivery time depends on the product, your destination, and availability — the estimated time for any item appears on the product page, and 'Check where we deliver' confirms coverage for your postcode before you order. Next-day delivery is available on most products; the option appears at checkout when applicable. We deliver across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

Within Oil, Grease covers the lubricating greases used in plant equipment, agricultural machinery, commercial vehicles, and workshop applications — the high-viscosity lubricants applied to bearings, joints, chassis points, slides, and the components where oil would run off but where grease's higher consistency keeps it in place. Parts For Machines supplies greases for trade and professional use across automotive, agricultural, plant, and industrial workshop applications. Greases are classified by their thickener type, base oil, and consistency.

Common thickeners include lithium (the most widely-used general-purpose grease thickener — suitable for most automotive and plant applications), lithium complex (higher temperature resistance), calcium sulphonate (high water resistance, used in agricultural applications), and aluminium complex (high temperature, low oil-bleed). Consistency is rated on the NLGI scale (00, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) — NLGI 2 is the workshop default for general-purpose grease; NLGI 0 and 1 are softer for cold-temperature and centralised-lubrication systems; NLGI 3 and 4 are stiffer for high-load applications. Parts For Machines is an Authorised Distributor and Seller of Shell, Castrol, and Q8 across the grease range.

Shell covers the Gadus and Alvania general-purpose grease ranges plus specialist greases for high-temperature, marine, and food-grade applications. Castrol covers the Spheerol grease range for plant, agricultural, and industrial use. Q8 covers heavy-duty automotive, plant, and agricultural greases at trade pricing.

Product pages list the thickener type, base oil type and viscosity, NLGI consistency grade, working temperature range, and any specialist additives (extreme-pressure (EP) additives for high-load bearings; water-resistant additives for marine and outdoor use; molybdenum disulphide for shock-load applications). Pack sizes typically include 400g cartridges (for grease guns), 18kg pails, and 180kg drums. Trade pricing on bulk and pallet orders is available; contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583 for a quote on volume requirements.
