Q 1. What applications is Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2 designed for?

A. Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2 is a multi-purpose high-performance grease for bearings and components operating at sustained elevated temperatures. The lithium-complex thickener gives improved high-temperature performance compared to standard lithium-soap greases.

Q 2. What is an NLGI grade?

A. NLGI is the universal grease consistency standard every reputable grease meets, ranging from NLGI 000 (semi-fluid) to NLGI 3 (firm). It is your baseline check — match the grade your handbook specifies (e.g., NLGI 2 for most multi-purpose applications) and the grease is technically suitable for your machine. Every grease on our site lists its NLGI grade.

Q 3. What is the NLGI grade of Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2?

A. Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2 is NLGI 2 — the standard bearing-grade grease consistency.

Q 4. What is a lithium-complex grease?

A. A lithium-complex grease uses a complex soap thickener (lithium 12-hydroxystearate combined with an organic acid) rather than a simple lithium soap. The complex structure gives higher dropping point and improved high-temperature performance — typically with an operating limit around 150-160°C versus around 120-130°C for standard lithium greases.

Q 5. What classifications does Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2 meet?

A. Castrol Spheerol EPLX 200-2 is tested to ASTM D6138 (EMCOR water washout); ASTM D4048 (copper corrosion); ASTM D942 (oxidation stability); ASTM D2596 (extreme-pressure load-wear); DIN 51811 (copper corrosion); and DIN 51805 (low-temperature flow).

Q 6. What is the difference between Castrol Spheerol EPL 2 and EPLX 200-2?

A. Both are Castrol Spheerol NLGI 2 multi-purpose extreme-pressure greases. EPL 2 is the standard lithium-soap grease for general bearing service. EPLX 200-2 (this product) is the higher-tier lithium-complex variant with improved high-temperature performance.

Q 7. What is an OEM Specification?

A. An OEM Specification is the grease requirement set by a vehicle or equipment manufacturer (e.g., MB 267.0, MAN 283 Li-P 2). When a grease lists the code, the grease manufacturer has developed and tested it to meet the criteria the equipment manufacturer requires. Match the code in your handbook and you have a grease engineered for your machine.

Q 8. What is an OEM Approval?

A. An OEM Approval means the grease has been formally tested and signed off by the equipment manufacturer and listed on their official approved-products register (e.g., MB-Approval 267.0). An Approval confirms the grease is recognised by the equipment manufacturer for service use in their machines.
