Idemitsu NTG NIGSTAR PL-1 Resin-Compatible Synthetic Grease
NIGSTAR PL-1 is an NLGI 1 resin-compatible grease in the NIGSTAR PL series. The series uses a synthetic hydrocarbon base oil with a lithium-soap thickener and is intended for machinery and components where compatibility with plastics and resins is important. Public series data list PL-1 as a white grease with an operating temperature range of approximately -30°C to +130°C. The NIGSTAR PL series is designed for applications involving prolonged contact with resin materials. Typical examples include bearings, guides and transmission parts in injection molding machines, machine tools and printing machinery. Its synthetic base oil also supports stable lubrication across low and moderate temperatures. With an NLGI 1 consistency, PL-1 is softer than PL-2, providing good spreadability and mobility while still remaining in place on lubricated components.
