Hello all,
My site has been using the Petrocan Thermex grease in our high temperature applications, in particular for the sliding bearing pedestals of our steam generators. Thermex has been discontinued and the generators are on a 6-year maintenance cycle and the grease channels/ports can't be readily purged. Does anyone know of a grease that is chemically compatible with Thermex that can be used in this kind of application?

I understand you're looking for a replacement grease for Petrocan Thermex in your steam generators' sliding roller bearing pedestals. That's a good question, especially since Thermex is discontinued, and purging the old grease isn't easy.
Any update?
That is an excellent question, particularly considering the fact that Thermex has been discontinued, and removing the old backrooms game grease is not a straightforward task.
Searching for an alternative grease for the sliding bearings in steam generators that use Petrocan Thermex. It's a valid question, especially considering that Thermex is no longer available and that getting rid of old grease is difficult.
I think that's a great question, especially since Thermex is no longer made and getting rid of the old oil isn't exactly geometry dash breeze a picnic.
