Product Description
Delo Gear EP-5 are multipurpose lubricants.They are made from paraffinic base stocks and contain a carefully balancedadditive package to provide gear protection and long lubricant life.The sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure additive technology used in Delo GearEP-5 provides exceptional thermal and oxidation stability. In addition, this lubricantis fortified with rust and corrosion inhibitors, a foam inhibitor, and a pour pointdepressant.The sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure additives in Delo Gear EP-5 minimize thespalling and wear of gears by creating a microthin sacrificial film on the surface ofthe gear teeth which is actually softer than the gears themselves. Frictional heatand pressures between gear teeth cause the sulfur-phosphorus to react with thesurfaces of the gear teeth at the point of contact, thus creating the sacrificial film.The highly refined base stocks and various inhibitors in the additive package helpassure a well-balanced lubricant and long gear and bearing life.
