Greasing your Anyang ST Power Hammers

For an Anyang ST power hammer (15kg / 40kg class) you are dealing with:
  • High shock loading

  • Oscillating bearings

  • Heat cycling

  • Scale + moisture contamination

The original Chinese spec historically leaned toward calcium-based or calcium-sulfonate EP greases

⚠️ What NOT To Use (Common Mistake)

Avoid:

  • Standard lithium wheel bearing grease.

  • High temp automotive lithium complex only.

Example:

  • Mobil XHP 222.

  • Mystik JT-6.

They survive heat but are weaker under hammer shock pounding compared to calcium sulfonate.


✅  Recommend for Your Anyang ST

If this were my hammer:

Tier 1 (Best Performance)

  • HammerDuty calcium sulfonate grease.

Tier 2 (Best Availability)

  • Traveller Marine Calcium Sulfonate (Tractor Supply).

Tier 3 (Industrial Gold Standard)

  • Lubriplate Power Hammer grease.


⭐ Advanced Tip (Few Owners Know)

Anyang pitman bearings respond extremely well to:

  • Slightly heavier base oil viscosity calcium sulfonate greases.

You get:

  • quieter hammer,

  • less knock,

  • longer life.
