Overview

A high-viscosity mineral oil for heavily loaded open gears on cement mills, mining mills and rotary kilns. Combines film retention with extreme-pressure lubrication and friction reduction; clear oil allows tooth-surface inspection. The operating temperature range applies to automatic spray lubrication.

Characteristics

  • High-viscosity mineral oil supports film retention
  • Lubrication for heavily loaded open gears
  • Extreme-pressure lubrication and friction reduction
  • Clear oil enables observation of tooth surfaces
