Mineral Circles Bearings is an authorized SKF distributor supplying SKF LGWG 3 Automotive Bearing Grease. The SKF LGWG 3 Automotive Bearing Grease is a premium mineral oil-based, special lithium soap thickened grease engineered specifically for wheel bearing applications in vehicles fitted with disc brakes. Whether you’re lubricating car, trailer, or truck wheel bearings, or servicing agricultural equipment operating under wet and severe conditions, LGWG 3 delivers excellent thermal stability and water resistance across an operating temperature range of –30°C to +140°C, with intermittent performance up to 150°C.
LGWG 3 is widely specified by OEM engineers and fleet maintenance teams across the automotive, trailer, truck, and agricultural equipment sectors as the standard grease for disc-brake-equipped wheel bearings.
LGWG 3 is extremely thermally stable, delivering excellent lubrication at continuous operating temperatures up to 140°C (284°F) and withstanding peak temperatures up to 150°C (302°F) for short periods — exactly the conditions generated in wheel bearings behind disc brakes. Dropping point: >185°C (DIN ISO 2176).
Formulated for wet-condition performance, LGWG 3 provides effective lubrication in wet conditions along with excellent water resistance (DIN 51 807/1: 1* rating) and corrosion protection (Emcor standard ISO 11007: 0–0; water wash-out: 0–0). Copper corrosion rating: 1* max. at 130°C (DIN 51 811).
The special lithium thickener combined with a mineral oil base protects wheel bearings operating under severe conditions, including exposure to road spray, mud, and variable industrial or agricultural environments.
LGWG 3 maintains its NLGI Grade 3 consistency under prolonged mechanical working (roll stability: 285* after 50 hrs at 80°C) and resists oil separation (1–2% per DIN 51 817), reducing re-lubrication frequency for fleet and maintenance operations.
In ROF testing, LGWG 3 achieves a minimum L50 life of 1,000 hours at 130°C and 10,000 rpm, reflecting reliable long-term performance in high-speed automotive wheel bearing applications.
