Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040/460-1

Castrol Molub-Alloy™ 6040 grease is based on a unique calcium-complex sulfonate thickener containing premium petroleum base oils with select additives for extreme pressure characteristics.

Greases using calcium sulfonate thickeners have inherent anti-oxidant and rust-inhibiting properties, along with high dropping points and extreme pressure (EP) /anti-wear characteristics. The use of this complex thickener offers advantages over other organic grease thickeners such as polyurea. It also works better than inorganics like aluminium bentonites or fumed silica.

Molub-Alloy 6040 is a high-performance, multi-purpose grease that exhibits excellent adhesive and cohesive characteristics, anti wear capabilities and extreme pressure properties which make it suitable for use in:

• Plain / journal or anti-friction bearings in applications operating under extreme environmental conditions, such as in rolling mills and continuous casters in steel mill plants, and in forming and press sections in paper mills
• Applications with frequent start-ups, low speeds, or where high loads and shock loading are commonplace, such as in mining heavy-duty equipment
• Low-speed, highly loaded coupling systemsare  used extensively in metal rolling mill applications and in high-horsepower transmitting such as in curved tooth couplings.
• Applications where resistance to aggressive process waters and protection against corrosive environments are highly demanded

Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040/460-1 Calcium Complex Grease Advantages:

• Exceptional water resistance – the film coating stays on the surface in the presence of water, including hot and chemically active process waters
• Advanced EP and anti-wear properties – protect equipment against extreme loading and help minimise bearing wear
• Superior mechanical stability – helps reduce product consumption in high-volume applications. High dropping point – withstands breakdown in high temperature applications
• Resists oxidation and prevents corrosive activity on bearings in aggressive process water environments. Suitable for applications utilising both ferrous and non—ferrous metallurgies

Storage:

All packages should be stored under cover. Where outside storage is unavoidable, drums should be laid horizontally to avoid the possible ingress of water and the obliteration of drum markings. Products should not be stored above 60°C or exposed to hot sun or freezing conditions.
