A. Fuchs Renolit LX EP 2 is a long-life lithium-complex grease suitable for the majority of industrial and automotive applications. The product can also be used as a general-purpose grease for product rationalisation in heavy industrial workshops.
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.
A. Fuchs Renolit LX EP 2 is NLGI 2 — the standard bearing-grade grease consistency.
A. A lithium-complex grease uses a complex soap thickener 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.
A. The 390g cartridge format fits standard hand and pneumatic grease guns without decanting. The 12-cartridge case supplies a workshop with grease-gun cartridges for ongoing maintenance.
A. Both are Fuchs Renolit NLGI 2 multi-purpose EP greases in 12 x 390g cartridges. Renolit EP 2 UK is the standard lithium-soap grease for general bearing service. Renolit LX EP 2 (this product) is the lithium-complex variant with improved high-temperature performance and long-life positioning.
A. Product rationalisation means consolidating multiple grease types into a single grease across a workshop. A lithium-complex EP grease such as Renolit LX EP 2 covers most industrial and automotive applications, eliminating the need to stock and apply different greases for different machines.
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.
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.
