LE H1 Quinplex Food Machinery Lubricant
LE H1 Quinplex® Food Machinery Lubricant (4025–4022) is a semi-synthetic, NSF H1 registered food grade grease suitable for a broad operating temperature range. It is robust enough to withstand moisture, high temperatures, extreme pressures and other harsh conditions found in food manufacturing plants. Its aluminium complex thickener provides extreme water resistance, excellent mechanical stability, reversibility and tackiness, while Quinplex®, LE’s proprietary impact-resistant additive, and a rust and oxidation inhibitor complete the formula – resulting in longer bearing life, fewer repairs, less downtime and lower lubricant consumption.

KEY FEATURES
| •Formulated with high-viscosity pure food grade base oil |
| •Registered NSF H1 for incidental food contact |
| •Certified Kosher Pareve |
| •Certified Halal by IFANCA |
| •Will not wash out or emulsify when coming in contact with water |
| •Stays in the contact zone, even in high-moisture environments; won’t wash out of bearings |
| •Protects against rust and corrosion |
| •Performs well in a broad temperature range |
| •Excellent service at moderately high temperatures; will not melt or run from bearings |
| •Superior EP load-carrying capability |
| •Exceptional anti-wear protection |
| •Clings tenaciously to metal, resisting repeated impact; won’t pound out or sling off |
| •Long-lasting mechanical stability – does not change consistency after being worked thousands of times |
| •In comparative testing vs. competitive NLGI 2 food grade greases, 4025 showed lower water spray-off loss, four times the minutes to onset of oxidation (PDSC), a higher load wear index and a higher Timken OK load |
