Abstract
A grease composition for constant velocity joints which consists essentially of: (a) a base oil; (b) an urea thickener; (c) molybdenum disulfide; and (d) a metal salt or an overbasic metal salt selected from the group consisting of metal salts or overbasic metal salts of oxidized waxes, petroleum sulfonates, alkyl aryl sulfonates, salicylate, and phenates. In addition to (a) to (d), it may further contain, (e) an extreme pressure agent selected from the group consisting of a metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent and molybdenum dithiophosphate, or (f) molybdenum dithiocarbamate. The grease composition exhibits excellent wear-resistance and pitting-inhibitory effect.
