CITGO CITGEAR Synthetic EP Gear Lubricants are designed for highly loaded gear applications operating at high temperatures and/or very low temperatures, severe conditions, or requiring extreme pressure (EP) protection.
Features
- 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.
