Overview
Cat® Greases are designed to reduce galling and scarring, prevent seizing, and resist corrosion and washout. Unique thickener and additive blends provide enhanced protection for the most extreme conditions. Cat Greases help you keep your equipment running smoothly and reliably, even in the most challenging environments.
We offer a variety of greases to meet the needs of your Cat equipment and the applications they work in.
Cat Greases are designed using special formulas that provide enhanced lubrication and protection from wear. Our greases resist oxidation and water washouts and protects metal against rust. Cat Greases were designed not to corrode or damage steel, copper-bearing alloys, or conventional seal materials.
Cat Greases were designed with the entire system in mind where Cat Filters, Cat Fluids and Cat S·O·S℠ Services work together for enhanced results. Cat Greases are lab and field tested for enhanced system protection.
Caterpillar product brochures and other informational documents are available for your growing business.
Cat® filters are engineered specifically for Cat equipment. With features like urethane end caps, spiral roving, acrylic beads, and non-metallic center tubes, they enhance contaminant retention and leak prevention. This helps protect your engine and hydraulic systems from premature wear—unlike many aftermarket filters that may not meet OEM standards.
Cat fluids are formulated to meet the exact specifications of Cat equipment. They help provide enhanced performance, reduce wear, and extend component life. Using non-Cat fluids may compromise system efficiency and void warranties.
Cat S·O·SSM fluid analysis is a preventive maintenance tool that helps detect wear metals, contaminants, and fluid degradation. It helps identify potential issues before they become costly failures, allowing for proactive maintenance and extended equipment life.
Follow the maintenance schedule in your equipment’s Operation & Maintenance Manual (OMM). Typically, Cat filters are designed for extended service intervals compared to aftermarket options, to help reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
Mixing Cat fluids with non-Cat brands is not recommended. It can lead to chemical incompatibility, reduced performance, and potential damage to components. Use the Cat fluid selector tool to ensure compatibility. https://www.catfluidselector.com/
Cat DEO-ULS (Diesel Engine Oil – Ultra Low Sulfur) is designed for engines using ultra-low sulfur diesel and equipped with aftertreatment systems. It offers enhanced oxidation stability and soot control. DEO is suitable for older engines without aftertreatment.
The report highlights wear metals, contaminants, and fluid condition. Look for flagged values and trend data. If results are abnormal, consult your Cat dealer for recommendations. Regular sampling helps build a baseline for accurate diagnostics.
Use the Cat filter cross reference tool www.catfiltercrossreference.com or consult your Cat dealer. Always verify part numbers and specifications to ensure proper fit and performance.
While the upfront cost may be higher, Cat products offer enhanced protection, longer service intervals, and reduced risk of failure—resulting in lower total cost of ownership.
By identifying issues early, S·O·S analysis allows for planned maintenance instead of unexpected breakdowns. This helps minimize unplanned downtime and maximize equipment availability.
