ATLANTIC OPEN GEAR COMPOUND

ATLANTIC OPEN GEAR COMPOUND products are high-performance, non-diluent type, heavy-bodied lubricants that are designed to lubricate open gears in a variety of machines and under a wide variety of climatic circumstances. They protect gear teeth and metal surfaces that are subjected to exceptionally strong loads with extreme pressure additives that are incorporated into the product. They organize themselves into a lubricating coating that is cohesive and sticky, providing resistance to wear, water wash, and excessive “throw-off.” When subjected to boundary conditions, they lubricate appropriately. Even when exposed to temperatures below zero, they do not peel or flake. These lubricants come highly recommended for use in open gears for a wide variety of applications. The two lighter classes are capable of satisfying the needs of many builders when it comes to strongly loaded splash-type enclosed gears.

APPLICATIONS

• Machinery components as hoist gears, swing gears, large press gears
• Equipment in forge shops, pit or strip mining
• Large earthmoving equipment and cement kilns.

PRODUCT FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Reduced maintenance costs because of longer gear life resulting from reduced wear and excellent protection against corrosion
• Reduced lubricant consumption due to excellent adhesive qualities and resistance to “throw off” and water wash-out
• Good low temperature properties with resistance to peeling
