Customer Benefits
- Effective water resistance
Good adhesive properties and effective resistance to water wash out minimize loss of lubricant in service. - Protect metal surfaces
High load-carrying capacity and anti-wear additives extend gear tooth life in heavy duty service. Resistance to flaking at low temperatures maintains surface protection. - Solid film protection
Graphite and molybdenum disulfide provide solid-film protection in event of loss or degradation of the fluid lubricant.
Applications
Can include:
- Exposed gears in construction, mining and industrial equipment.
- Dipper sticks on excavating shovels.
- Automotive fifth wheels (tractor-trailer turntables).
- Steel girth gears (girth tires) on rotary kilns and crushing mills.
- Chain and sprocket lubrication, traveling water screens, fork lifts.
- Sugar mill plain bearings, when fluid lubricants have shown a tendency to leak.
