Castrol Alpha SP 680 Industrial Gearbox Oil

DESCRIPTION

Castrol Alpha SP 680 gear oil provides a high-quality lubricant which is based upon highly refined mineral oil, enhanced with an extreme pressure additive technology providing good thermal stability and a high load-carrying capacity. The extreme pressure additive system not only provides this aforementioned high load-carrying capacity but is also designed to provide a high degree of microscopic wear protection.

Microscopic wear protection, also known as micropitting protection, is critical in preventing destructive wear at the micro level therefore extending gear life and meeting the evolving demands of smaller and higher output gear boxes.

APPLICATIONS

Castrol Alpha SP 680 oil is recommended for the lubrication of industrial gearboxes using forced circulation or splash and oil bath lubrication. Alpha SP 680 oil may also be used for the lubrication of spur and helical gears and in some lightly loaded worm-type gear applications.

Castrol Alpha SP 680 oil provides very strong viscosity characteristics to ensure starting torques are not excessively high in cold operating conditions.

The additives are compatible with the ferrous and non-ferrous metals used in industrial gear units. The Alpha SP range is compatible with the most common types of seal materials.

ADVANTAGES

Castrol Alpha SP 680 oil Advantages:
