How will this grease perform under high heat and heavy loads?

Valvoline’s high-temperature red grease is engineered to keep a stable protective film when components run hot or carry heavy loads. The lithium-complex base and extreme-pressure (EP) additives resist breakdown, reducing wear and preserving bearing life under stress.

• Temperature range: lubricates from -40°F up to 400°F
• EP additives help prevent metal-to-metal contact under heavy loads
• Resists softening and bleeding even at sustained high temperatures

Which vehicles and components is this grease recommended for?

This grease is multi-vehicle compatible and is commonly recommended for GM, Chrysler, European and Japanese applications. It’s suited to wheel bearings, suspension pivots and other chassis points that demand an NLGI No. 2 consistency.
