OUTSTANDING ADVANTAGES
– High Viscosity Index: Ensures minimal viscosity fluctuation due to temperature changes, aiding smooth starting at low temperatures and reducing gearbox torque loss.
– High Oxidation Stability: The combination of antioxidants and highly refined base oils ensures excellent oxidation stability under high-temperature operating conditions.
– High Endurance Ability For Heavy Load: Extreme Pressure additive prevents welding and pitting at gear contact points due to heavy loads.
– Prevent Foaming: The addition of anti-foaming agents helps prevent foaming for smoother lubrication.
– Prevent Corrosion & Rust: Effective rust preventatives and corrosion inhibitors help prevent corrosion caused by water and acids generated during oil degradation.
