PLANTOGEAR S
Environmentally Acceptable Lubricating Oil and EP Industrial Gear Oil Based on Synthetic Saturated Esters
Description
PLANTOGEAR S products are environmentally acceptable industrial gear oils based on special saturated synthetic esters which guarantee high ageing resistance and excellent wear protection - very good lubricity. The products have a good solvency (good deterging dispersant properties due to the polar ester base oils).
PLANTOGEAR S products have high scuffing protection (FZG > 12). The selected antiwear/ extreme pressure additive system guarantees the wear protection of bearings due to the excellent FE8 roller bearing wear test results (excellent wear protection of roller bearings under severe conditions, high load, low velocity).
Applications
PLANTOGEAR S products can be used as universal CLP industrial gear oils. PLANTOGEAR S products can be used in spur, bevel, planetary and worm gears, especially in environmentally sensitive areas. The products can also be used in drive systems in water protection areas where ground and surface water can be polluted by oil leaks. The formulation of PLANTOGEAR S series is based on fully synthetic saturated high-performance esters based on natural renewable resources.
