Product Description
Overview
• Designed for highly loaded gear applications operating at high temperatures and/or very low temperatures, severe conditions, or requiring extreme pressure (EP) protection.
Features & Benefits
- Exceptionally low pour points and high viscosity indexes, as compared to conventional, mineral oil-based products.
- The high viscosity index provides higher viscosity and greater film thickness at high temperatures, and lower viscosities for easy start-up at low temperatures.
- EP additives protect gears operating in the boundary lubrication regime and guard against failures associated with heavy loading and severe operation.
- Exhibit low foaming tendencies, high oxidation resistance, and provide excellent rust and corrosion protection.
- Lower coefficients of friction than mineral oils, providing reduced energy consumption.
- Superior heat transfer properties, as compared with conventional oils, often result in machinery operating at cooler temperatures.
- Compatible with essentially all commonly used elastomers, gaskets, and seals such as nitrile, Buna N, Viton®, Teflon®, polyethylene, flourocarbon, polyacrylate, epoxy, and PVC. Will not deteriorate acrylic paints or lacquers.
- With proper maintenance, useful service life may be extended beyond that associated with mineral oils.
Applications
- Recommended for gears requiring EP protection, for applications which experience a wide range of temperatures, and where a long-lasting fluid is desired for extended drain intervals.
- Especially recommended for lubricating industrial enclosed gears, sealed-for-life systems, and heavily loaded plain or roller element bearings.
- Recommended for splash lubrication, idler immersion, forced drip, and mechanical spray systems.
- No flushing or cleaning is required when converting from mineral oils to these synthetic products.
- Refer to equipment owner’s manual for proper lubricant recommendation.
- Recommended for the following applications: AIST 224, ISO 12925-1 CKC/CKD, GM LS2, AGMA 9005-F16 AS, DIN 51517 Part 3, David Brown S1.53.101 (E).
