MK-WS2-HT is a high temperature bearing grease for industrial bearings and lubrication points exposed to elevated temperature, high load, impact load, moisture or high shear. It is made with high-viscosity synthetic base oil, tungsten disulfide (WS2) particles and special additives.
Lowerfriction supplies MK-WS2-HT high temp grease in NLGI grades 0, 1 and 2 and in cartridge, jar, pail and drum packaging. The product brochure reports a dropping point above 320 °C, low oil separation, low evaporation loss and resistance to water, rust and humid environments.
Specification note: The brochure specifies a synthetic high-viscosity base oil, whereas the SDS lists both mineral oil and polyalphaolefin as constituents. Do not describe MK-WS2-HT as fully synthetic unless the current technical documentation states this.

Performance note: The brochure lists a temperature range of -20 °C (-4 °F) to 800 °C (1472 °F). Confirm suitability for continuous or intermittent service in the actual equipment. The 300,000 psi figure applies to WS2 as a material and is not a certified load rating for the finished grease.
| Selection factor | MK-WS2-HT selection consideration |
|---|---|
| Operating temperature | Select based on the actual equipment temperature, duty cycle and operating conditions. The brochure lists a dropping point above 320 °C. |
| Load requirement | Consider high load and impact load applications. Validate equipment load requirements before selection. |
| Speed | Confirm grease consistency and equipment speed requirements before choosing the NLGI grade. |
| Water / humidity exposure | Review water resistance, washout performance and maintenance frequency for exposed lubrication points. |
| NLGI grade | Available NLGI grades: 0, 1 and 2. Select according to the lubrication system and equipment specification. |
| Relubrication requirement | Set the relubrication interval based on temperature, load, environment and operating conditions. |
| Application / requirement | How MK-WS2-HT is used | Selection note |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial bearings | For elevated temperature, load and friction. | Confirm grade and equipment requirements. |
| High or impact loads | EP and abrasion resistance support severe-duty contact. | Validate load and relubrication interval. |
| Water or humidity | Water, rust and humidity resistance supports exposed lubrication points. | Review washout and maintenance frequency. |
| High shear | Mechanical stability supports repeated shear conditions. | Confirm consistency and compatibility. |
The brochure gives NLGI 0 at 310–340, NLGI 1 at 259–265 and NLGI 2 at 220–250 penetration (0.1 mm). Select the grade on the equipment specification, lubrication system and application method, not on the temperature claim alone.
