Customer Benefits

Corrosion Delo Gear EP-5 delivers value through:

• Long gear life
  Extreme pressure properties protect hypoid and other types of gears from scuffing and wear.
• Rust and corrosion protection
  Effective inhibitor package protects against rusting or corrosion of gear and bearing surfaces.
• Excellent foam inhibition
  Foaming minimized by use of foam inhibitor.
• Long lubricant life
  Outstanding thermal and oxidation stability allow high temperature operation with long lubricant life.
• Seal Protection
  Formulated to protect against oil seal deterioration.

Product features

• The sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure additive technology used in Delo Gear EP-5 provides exceptional thermal and oxidation stability. In addition, this lubricant is fortified with rust and corrosion inhibitors, a foam inhibitor, and a pour point depressant
• The sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure additives in Delo Gear EP-5 minimize the spalling and wear of gears by creating a microthin sacrificial film on the surface of the gear teeth which is actually softer than the gears themselves. Frictional heat and pressures between gear teeth cause the sulfur-phosphorus to react with the surfaces 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 help assure a well-balanced
  lubricant and long gear and bearing life.

Applications

Delo Gear EP-5 are recommended for use in spiral bevel and hypoid differentials, power dividers, and oillubricated steering axle wheel bearings. Their multi viscosity characteristics allow their use in equipment operating over a broad ambient temperature range. This means good cold flow properties and gear protection.
