About AeroShell Grease 33
Of 359 grease application points on a Boeing 737, AeroShell Grease 33lubricates all but 9 of them.
ASG33 is effective on virtually all airframe components. For those componentswhere ASG33 is not suitable, AeroShell Grease 22 will do the job. A completegrease range in two products.
- It provides all-round protection in the harshestof conditions, from temperatures as low as -54°C through to scorchingheat
- It helps maintain mechanical stability, avoids water washout and protects your aircraft parts from corrosion caused by de- cing fluids.
Why useAeroShell Grease 33?
Here are a few more reasonsto choose AeroShell Grease 33:
- Replacing the number of greases used on theaircraft with a common grease lessens the likelihood of misapplication ofthe wrong grease and damage to the aircraft;
- The much-improved corrosion resistance and wearprotection properties of ASG33 help prevent expensive replacement of parts byextending maintenance life while also allowing lubrication intervals to beextended; and
- Replacing a range of greases with just one reduces stock inventory and costs.
