| 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | High Performance Multiuse Grease Specification Update and Work Session
(Breakfast and Lunch Provided) The purpose of this half-day working session is to begin finalizing the High Performance Multiuse (HPM) grease specification which will be available to the industry in Q1 2021. The HPM grease specification will build upon NLGI’s legacy of establishing an industry-wide grease specification. In addition to the HPM grease specification baseline, enhanced performance requirements are also being defined for enhanced water resistance, corrosion resistance, high load carrying capability, low temperature and long-life properties. Feedback on this new specification started formally at NLGI’s June 2019 Annual Meeting, and we will come together in June 2020 at this four-hour working session to review consolidated feedback and work towards finalizing the specification. Even if you are not a grease expert, all are welcome join us to learn about the specification details to apply to your company’s grease products when the HPM grease certification program launches in early 2021. |
*Please note: Education Courses overlap the Technical Presentations briefly on Tuesday afternoon.
