Product description
Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD 18 kg – NLGI 1 bearing grease formerly Longtime PD 1
Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD is a high-performance grease based on highly refined mineral oil with a lithium thickener, designed for the lubrication of heavily loaded rolling and plain bearings. The product was previously marketed as Castrol Longtime PD 1. Castrol renamed the series to Tribol GR 100 PD in 2015.
The GR 100-1 PD version has an NLGI 1 consistency and is intended for long-term lubrication of components operating under high pressure, vibration, shock loads and varying speeds. Its formulation uses MicroFlux Trans (MFT) additive technology to help reduce friction and wear on interacting surfaces.
Applications of Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD
Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD is primarily intended for heavily loaded rolling and plain bearings operating under demanding industrial conditions.
Typical applications specified for the Tribol GR 100 PD series include bearings in spinning and grinding spindles, geared motors exposed to shock loads, screening and woodworking machines, bearing surfaces in printing machines and bearings operating under high radial loads.
The series is also suitable for bearings with reversing or oscillating motion, curved-tooth gear couplings and centralized lubrication systems.
What distinguishes Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD
MicroFlux Trans (MFT) technology is designed to improve protection against wear and reduce friction even under high pressure, vibration and shock loading.
Under high loads, MFT additives support the formation of a protective layer and micro-smoothing of interacting surfaces. According to Castrol, this can increase the effective load-bearing surface, reduce localized pressure and wear, and help maintain the lubricating film.
Reduced friction and improved surface interaction can contribute to lower component wear, reduced noise and fewer unplanned stoppages caused by lubrication-related component damage.
When to choose Tribol GR 100-1 PD
The NLGI 1 version is suitable when a relatively soft bearing grease is required for industrial applications exposed to high loads, vibration and shock loading.
The operating temperature range specified for the Tribol GR 100 PD series is -35°C to +140°C. Grease selection should also take into account bearing speed, load, lubrication method and the machine manufacturer's recommendations.
Changing from another grease to Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD
When changing from another lubricant, Castrol recommends removing as much of the previous grease as possible to reduce the risk of lubricant incompatibility. During the initial operating period, relubrication frequency should also be monitored until residues of the previous lubricant have been removed from the system.

FAQ – Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD 18 kg
Is Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD the same product as Longtime PD 1?
Yes. Castrol previously marketed the Tribol GR 100 PD series under the Longtime PD name. Tribol GR 100-1 PD corresponds to the former Longtime PD 1 designation.
What types of bearings is Tribol GR 100-1 PD intended for?
It is designed for heavily loaded rolling and plain bearings, particularly where high pressure, vibration or shock loads occur.
What does NLGI 1 mean?
NLGI 1 indicates a relatively soft grease consistency. The correct consistency should be selected according to the lubrication point design, lubrication system and the machine manufacturer's recommendations.
What is the operating temperature range of Castrol Tribol GR 100-1 PD?
Castrol specifies an operating temperature range of -35°C to +140°C for the Tribol GR 100 PD series.
Can Tribol GR 100-1 PD be used in centralized lubrication systems?
The Tribol GR 100 PD series can also be used in centralized lubrication systems. The suitability of the NLGI 1 grade should be checked against system design, line length, temperature and equipment manufacturer requirements.
Should the previous grease be removed before using Tribol GR 100-1 PD?
Yes. Castrol recommends removing as much of the previous grease as possible before changing lubricant to reduce the risk of incompatibility.
