Description
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 Spray grease for open gears NLGI 0
Castrol Tribol™OG 500-0 (previously called Castrol Tribol™ 5000) with TGOA is a high-performance open gear grease. It was especially developed for application in cement, mining and other heavy industries, to assure proper tribo-technical and economical maintenance of open gears through automatic spray systems.
Application
- Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is a high-performance lubricant for open gears, wire ropes and similar applications.
- Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 was developed for application through automatic spray systems, but may also be applied manually. Heat or the addition of thinners is unnecessary.
- Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is recommended for the use on slow-moving, heavily loaded open gears.
- It is also used to lubricate rack-and-pinion gears, wire ropes, slides, cams and other machinery in mills and mines and other heavy industries.
- Temperature range: -20 °C up to +120 °C, +140 °C intermittent
Advantages
- Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 forms a very tough lubricating film on friction surfaces. This stable film offers excellent resistance to high loads even at slow speeds. In the FZG special test for grease (A/2.76/50) Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 reaches a scoring load stage of >12 with an extremely low specific wear of <0.20 mg/kWh.
- No additional wear on pistons or plugging of nozzles of automatic spray systems, as Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 does not contain solids.
- Regeneration of damaged frictional surfaces can occur on a microscale range.
- The lubricant film is resistant to weather and environmental influences.
- The stable protective lubricant film is easily and economically applied through automatic dispensing systems over a wide temperature range: -20 °C up to +120 °C, 140 °C intermittent.
- Increased life of machinery and lubricants.
- Extended lube intervals, reduced consumption and consequential reduction of maintenance and repair costs.
