Customer Benefits

Maintains gear set efficiencies
High thermal stability EP system maintains clean gear and bearing surfaces, minimizing deposits which interfere with effective lubrication. High oxidation stability limits in-service viscosity increases, which lead to energy losses.

Protects metal surfaces
Extremely effective EP system forms a protective film in areas of metal-to-metal contact, minimizing wear rates and maintaining efficient transfer of power. Good water separation and effective rust inhibitors protect surfaces against rust and corrosion. High thermal stability additive system reduces the formation of high temperature compounds which can be corrosive to bearing materials. The effective corrosion inhibitor provides additional protection for metal components.

Effective oxidation stability
Effective oxidation inhibitors and copper passivator minimize oil oxidation, limiting viscosity increase and can extend oil drain intervals.

Applications

Can include:

• Enclosed industrial gear drives.
• Open gear drives (heavy grades).
• Spur, bevel, helical, worm and industrial hypoid gear cases.
• Industrial type reduction gearboxes on mining equipment, cement mills, ball and rolling mills, crushers, conveyors, kilns, winches, machine tools and marine equipment.
• Chain drives, sprockets, slide guides and flexible couplings.
• Plain and rolling element bearings.
• For bath, splash, circulation or spray lubrication, as applicable to the grade.
