Product Description
Castrol Tribol™ GR 1350-2.5 PD (previously called Optipit™) is a lithium soap based grease with an extremely high viscosity base oil containing the advanced MicroFlux Trans (MFT) additive package.
The Microflux Trans additive technology provides optimum wear protection and an extremely low coefficient of friction
even under extremes of pressure, vibration, shock loads, at high or low speeds or varying micro-smoothing of the friction
surfaces. Under severe load, components of the MFT additive combination are activated and diffuse into the surfaces,
initiating an improvement of their friction characteristics through plastic deformation.
The organic reaction products become a component of the tribopolymer system. Unlike the case with conventional
lubricants, the tribopolymers formed by MFT are long-chained compounds with excellent lubricity and adhesion. This
means that the load carrying area is improved and that a hydrodynamic lubrication film is easier to maintain. This unique
physio-chemical reaction achieves a non-sacrificial micro-smoothing of the friction surfaces.
