I found a local Canadian supplier for this Klondike brand, calcium sulphonate nano grease. I was very impressed when comparing the specs to all the others so I ordered 40 tubes for my farm equipment and trucks. Has anyone come across more impressive specs than these? Thanks
Has anyone found grease with better specs than this?

other than timken and load numbers is a regular CA sulfonate grease.
I'm sure there is some boutique or major grease for mine equipment that may exceed or equal maybe bel ray or XOM.

Certainly the 4 ball weld load test number is Uge. 
That’s what I noticed. Typical calcium sulphonate specs but excellent bearing/load numbers. Don’t think that I’ve ever seen better.
We use Premalube Xtreme where I work to lube equipment that is heavily loaded and sees tons of water. Works well for us.
Does Klondike make their own products? Looks like a Battenfeld spec'd Calcium Sulfonate. The Calcite does wonders with the Weld test, the rest of the spec's can be equaled or bettered by a lot of other products. Only downside to Calcium Sulphonate greases are cost and raw material availability.
How's it working for you?
Northern Metallic is one of the Klondike distributors in BC.
The pulp mills use calcium sulfonate greases in wet areas.
Their go to grease is Petro-Can OG-2.
Your Klondike example is like their HD OG-2 with a thick base oil.
For wheel bearings make sure the product meets GC-LB.
Klondike is a discount brand in my opinion. I might use their engine oil if it was free to keep the dust down on the driveway.
Interesting opinion, why do you think that?
The price is the first clue. And not in Club API the second.
Klondike has several eo's on the API list.
Calcite is multi-functional in a CaS grease. It is the thickener and provides anti-wear and EP capabilities. In the manufacturing process amorphous calcium carbonate is converted to calcite and thickening occurs. As an EP additive in a #2 grade grease it will yield a 500 kgf weld point, 620 kgf at a stretch. The Klondike grease is boosted to 800 kgf with a small amount of tungsten disulfide and possibly something else that is nonhazardous and not listed on the SDS.
License # should be 163, WPP on the bottom of Klondike bottles and jugs.
My current flavor is Triax Atlas 600. Full synthetic lithium complex with a Timken load of 80 lbs.
