NLGI 2 POLYUREA 260°C Dropping Point Electric Motors Sealed-for-Life Bearings Low-Noise

Outstanding Grease Life — Specifically Engineered for Electric Motors

Mobil Polyrex EM is a super-premium polyurea grease formulated specifically for electric motor bearings — recommended by many major bearing and electric motor manufacturers for long-life lubrication of ball and roller bearings, particularly in sealed-for-life applications.

The advanced polyurea thickener system was engineered to solve the specific failure mode that conventional lithium-based greases suffer in electric motor applications — thermal degradation and thickener breakdown under sustained motor operating temperatures. For South African manufacturing, processing and facilities operations running electric motors continuously, Mobil Polyrex EM is the correct choice where bearing reliability, low-noise operation and extended re-lubrication intervals are the priority.

Product Overview

Mobil Polyrex™ EM is a super-premium electric motor bearing grease formulated with an advanced polyurea thickener and proprietary manufacturing techniques — delivering improved bearing performance and protection for long electric motor life. NLGI 2 consistency suits the majority of standard electric motor bearing applications across manufacturing, processing and facilities management operations.

The advanced polyurea thickener provides increased durability versus conventional polyurea greases when subjected to mechanical shear forces — maintaining grease structure and bearing protection over the full service interval. Mobil Polyrex EM also delivers excellent corrosion resistance, including additional protection under mild salt-water wash conditions, and low-noise properties suited to ball bearing lubrication in noise-sensitive environments.

Mobil Polyrex EM is compatible with a number of ExxonMobil lithium complex greases and competitive electric motor mineral polyurea products, as determined by ASTM D6185 methodology. Available in 18kg pail and 180kg drum from Orbit Industrial — distributing Mobil lubricants across the Western Cape, Northern Cape and Garden Route.

Why Polyurea Matters in Electric Motor Applications

The case for polyurea grease is stronger in electric motor bearing applications than almost any other lubrication application — because the consequences of using the wrong thickener type are uniquely costly:

Bearing Failure — The Primary Failure Mode

Premature electric motor bearing failure is one of the most common and costly maintenance issues in industrial facilities. Lithium complex greases churn and soften at sustained motor operating speeds and temperatures, causing grease loss and bearing starvation. Polyrex EM's polyurea thickener resists churning and maintains structure throughout the bearing's operating life.

Thickener Incompatibility Risk

Mixing polyurea and lithium complex greases without purging can soften the grease structure and cause it to run out of the bearing — a leading cause of preventable electric motor bearing failure. Always purge bearings fully when switching from a lithium complex grease to Polyrex EM.

Extended Re-Lubrication Intervals

Outstanding grease life of 750+ hours at 177°C allows significantly extended re-lubrication intervals compared to conventional greases — reducing maintenance frequency and labour cost across large electric motor populations in manufacturing facilities.

Low-Noise Performance

Suitable for ball bearing lubrication in noise-sensitive applications such as HVAC systems, hospitals and commercial buildings — where motor bearing noise from grease churning or thickener breakdown is an operational concern.

Full Performance Benefits

Outstanding Grease Life

Outstanding long-life, high-temperature lubrication of ball and roller bearings, particularly in sealed-for-life applications — reducing the need for frequent re-lubrication and unplanned motor maintenance.

Advanced Polyurea Thickener

Increased durability versus conventional polyurea greases when subjected to mechanical shear forces — maintaining grease structure and bearing protection throughout the service interval.

Excellent Corrosion Resistance

Provides protection against rust and corrosion, including additional protection under mild salt-water wash conditions — suited to humid and coastal industrial environments.

Low-Noise Properties

Suitable for lubrication of ball bearings in many noise-sensitive applications, where bearing noise from grease churning or thickener structure is a design consideration.

Excellent Low-Temperature Performance

Maintains pumpability and bearing protection down to -29°C — ensuring reliable lubrication and motor start-up performance in cold storage, refrigeration and outdoor industrial environments.

Broad OEM Compatibility

Recommended by many major bearing and electric motor manufacturers for long-life lubrication of electric motor ball and roller bearings — simplifying procurement across mixed equipment populations.

Recommended Applications

Electric Motor Bearings

Primary design application — standard and sealed-for-life ball and roller bearings on electric motors across manufacturing, processing and industrial drive applications.

Fin Fan Bearings

Cooling fan bearing applications in process plants and industrial cooling systems requiring sustained high-temperature performance.

High-Temperature Pump Bearings

Pump bearing applications operating at elevated temperatures where conventional lithium greases may oxidise or lose film strength prematurely.

Factory-Filled Sealed-for-Life Bearings

Sealed-for-life ball bearings benefiting from extended grease life and low oil separation under continuous operation without scheduled re-lubrication.

Noise-Sensitive Environments

Ball bearing applications in noise-sensitive environments such as HVAC systems, hospitals and commercial buildings where low-noise grease performance matters.

High-Temperature Operation

Ball or roller bearings operating at high temperatures where low oil separation is required to maintain consistent lubrication and extend bearing life.

Important: Polyurea and lithium complex greases are generally incompatible. Purge bearings completely before switching from a lithium complex grease to Mobil Polyrex EM.

Polyrex EM vs Polyrex EM 103 — Grade Selection

Both grades use the same advanced polyurea formulation — select by NLGI consistency and bearing orientation specified in your motor OEM manual

Polyrex EM — NLGI 2 (this product)

— Standard consistency for most motor orientations

— Best mild salt-water wash protection of the two grades

— Dropping point: 260°C · Water washout: 1.9 wt%

— Oil separation: 0.5 mass%

— Available: 18kg pail & 180kg drum

Polyrex EM 103 — NLGI 3

— Stiffer consistency for vertical mounts & large motors

— Superior oil separation & water washout resistance

— Dropping point: 270°C · Water washout: 0.8 wt%

— Oil separation: 0.1 mass%

Nice looking. Not very sturdy. Easy to install.
Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White, Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White
Update: The shelf slopes at about a 45° angle when you put anything more than about a pound on the outside edge of it. Perfectly fine up against the wall. Just seems like the braces inside aren't long enough to really give the stability needed. Bracket is nice and tight against the wall. Had to add braces underneath to hold a small plant, a photo and a small container. Wa sloping more and more each week The shelves look great and we're pretty easy to install. They have a single bracket that is very easy to mount to the wall and get nice and level.. The downside is that the bracket isn't long enough to go between studs. This seems like a pretty simple oversight. I mean why wouldn't you make it long enough to go stud to stud? Secondly and maybe more fatally the bars that go inside the shelf to support them coming out from the wall are significantly shorter than the depth of the shelf. Unfortunately this means the shelf is only supported the first few inches coming out from the wall so there is the potential for a slight lean forward.. The anchors they send are trash. Cheap soft plastic that just tears and bends with a screwdriver. I would suggest spending $2 and grabbing your own anchors from Ace or home Depot. The shelves are essentially made of a high grade cardboard kind of wood. They are not going to support much weight or last for years and years however there incredibly affordable and look nice and easy to install. Long as your expectations are right you'll be happy.
