1. Plastic Gear Grease Selection

Plastic gears are widely used in automotive parts, instruments, digital electronics, and home appliances. Vnovo provides functional gear greases with various viscosities for different structures and materials.

Selection criteria for plastic Gear grease :

1. Lifetime Lubrication: Designed for maintenance-free long-life performance.

2. Material Compatibility: No swelling, shrinkage, or cracking across diverse plastic types.

3. Viscosity & Adhesion: Strong oil film for significant noise reduction and comfort.

4. Low Torque: Minimal impact on motor current during startup and operation.

5. Eco-friendly: Low odor, light color, and compliant with EU environmental standards.

Model	Color	Base Oil	Thickener	NLGI	Temp (°C)	Application
T101	White	Mineral Oil	Lithium	0	-25~130	Small current plastic gears <3V
T102	White	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1	-20~150	3~6V small current plastic gears
T102P	White	Synthetic Oil	Lithium	1	-40~150	Low temp, small current gears <6V
T103	Beige	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1.5	-20~150	6~12V small current plastic gears
T105	White	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1.5	-20~150	Plastic gears >12V

2. Metal Gear Grease Selection

Metal gear transmission requires grease with high wear resistance and load capacity to ensure efficiency and durability.

Selection criteria for metal gear grease:

1. Wear Protection: Low friction coefficient to prevent tooth surface wear.

2. High Adhesion: Resists centrifugal forces at high rotation speeds.

3. Mechanical Stability: Prevents thinning and leakage under shearing forces.

4. Advanced Thickeners: Polyurea or Lithium Complex for high-temperature stability.

Model	Color	Base Oil	Thickener	NLGI	Temp (°C)	Application
T202	Beige	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1	-25~130	Metal-metal/plastic noise reduction
T206	Yellow	Mineral Oil	Polyurea	1	-20~180	Heavy load bearings, worm gears
T207	Yellow	Synthetic Oil	Li-Complex	2	-40~180	Planetary reducers, power tools
T208	Black	Synthetic Oil	Bentonite	2	-40~200	MoS2, high temp, extreme pressure

3. High-Speed Gear Grease Selection

For high-speed applications (up to 10,000+ RPM), Vnovo offers patented formulations (Patent No.: 201210419639.4).

1. Optimized Torque: Balances startup torque, motor current, and noise.

2. Shear Resistance: Prevents grease loss under high-speed shearing.

3. Load Capacity: Contains premium anti-wear and extreme pressure additives.

Model	Color	Base Oil	Thickener	NLGI	Temp (°C)	Application
N201	Beige	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1	-20~130	General gear noise reduction
N201B	Beige	Mineral Oil	Lithium	1	-20~130	PTFE added, anti-wear
N206	Yellow	Synthetic Oil	Lithium	2	-40~180	Organic Mo, planetary gears
N210	White	Synthetic Oil	Li-Complex	1	-35~130	High viscosity, thick film

4. Low-Temperature Gear Grease

Low-temperature greases use synthetic base oils to ensure low startup torque and reliable lubrication in extreme cold, preventing hardening and component wear.

Model	Color	Base Oil	Thickener	NLGI	Temp (°C)	Application
SYN300	Beige	Mineral Oil	Lithium	2	-40~130	Cost-effective gearboxes
SYN320	Beige	Synthetic Oil	Lithium	2	-50~130	Precision electronics/auto
SYN350	Beige	Silicone Oil	Lithium	2	-60~180	PTFE added, plastic/metal
