Description
Castrol Alphasyn™ EP gear oil series are high quality synthetic lubricants based on polyalphaolefin (PAO) fluids and sulphur/phosphorus extreme pressure (EP) additive technology providing outstanding thermal stability and high load carrying capacity.
Application
The Alphasyn EP range is intended for use in all types of enclosed gears including heavy and shock-loaded gears and bearings where EP properties are required. They are suitable for use in gearboxes where resistance to micro-pitting is required and for a wide range of applications in extreme environments, for example, mining and quarrying, marine applications and paper production. Use of PAO base stocks provide an inherently high Viscosity Index (VI) and low pour points making these products suitable for use over a wide temperature range. The Alphasyn EP range is fully compatible with nitrile, silicone and fluropolymer seal materials.
Advantages
Excellent thermal and oxidative stability provides reliable operation and extended operating life when compared to mineral oil based products.
High load carrying capacity and good wear protection reduces gear wear and maintenance costs.
Reduced downtime through good water separation and demulsification characteristics.
High Viscosity Index (VI) PAO base oil enables operation over a wide temperature range.
Good compatibility with seals for longer seal life and reduced leakage.
