PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Synthetic
High-Viscosity Grease (GVC) is a lithium- complex thickened grease blended with premium ISO-320 synthetic base
oils. This grease is fully compounded with additives providing EP protection, oxidation resistance and rust and
corrosion protection. AMSOIL GVC is shear stable, maintaining its viscosity and consistency in the presence of
mechanical activity, and GVC stays in place by resisting water washout. During high-temperature operation, AMSOIL
High-Viscosity Grease’s thickener system remains intact and the high-viscosity base oils resist thermal breakdown,
providing a thick film for good boundary lubrication protection. AMSOIL GVC adheres to critical components in
severe conditions and provides problem-free operation, resulting in increased uptime and reduced repair and
maintenance costs.
APPLICATION AMSOIL GVC is excellent for use in heavy-duty industrial and off-road
applications where equipment operates under adverse conditions, including exposure to environmental elements,
slow, heavily-loaded applications and shock-loading conditions. Use GVC in wet applications requiring
excellent water resistance and in high-temperature applications up to 177ºC (350°F) in continuous service and
204ºC (400°F) in intermittent service. The lithium complex thickener system and high-viscosity base oil
provide top performance in hostile environments and heavy-duty industrial or off-road applications where
typical multipurpose greases may not perform up to standards.
AMSOIL High-Viscosity Grease is compatible with many other types of greases. However, it is
recommended that when changing greases the equipment be cleaned of the old grease when possible or flushed
with a liberal amount of the new grease while the mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for
any inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility questions should be referred to your AMSOIL representative or
the AMSOIL Industrial Department for assistance.
APPLICATION MAINTENANCE Maintaining a clean work environment is important when
equipment greasing is performed. Wipe grease fittings clean prior to injecting grease to prevent contaminant
ingestion. Maintain bearing housings one-third to onehalf full of grease. Prevent over-greasing as this can
result in excessive heat buildup. Supplement standard grease maintenance by periodically cleaning and packing
housings with fresh grease on an established maintenance schedule.
