SKF LGHP 2 is a premium quality mineral oil based grease, using a modern Polyurea (di-urea) thickener. It is suitable for electric motors and similar applications.

I would NOT recommend it, as all of your other lubricants are a Lithium-based product and urea based and lithium based do NOT play well together.

Yes, they WILL mix, regardless of where they are.

As mentioned above, electric motor grease would not be correct for automotive wheel bearings. Just about any compatible grease (Lithium base) that states on the label something like "---Automotive---suitable for wheel bearings---" will work.

What greases are available to you in South Africa; Chevron/Caltrex, Shell/Gadus, Castrol??
