Synthetic industrial gear oils

SHC synthetic Gear splash Oil

Molylub produce only higher quality, more specialized industrial synthetic based and synthetic esters-based gear oils. Synthetic gear oils are used whenever mineral gear oils have reached their performance limit and can no longer meet the application requirements.

Synthetic oils provide a number of advantages. However, they do not necessarily out-perform mineral oils in all respects and may even result in some drawbacks despite their advantages. In this case we are engineering special requirements gear lubrication fluids.

Synthetic ester based Biodegradable gear oil

Application-related advantages often prevail, increasing the use of synthetic lubricants as gear lubricants, especially under critical operating conditions. The most common synthetic types used include synthetic hydrocarbon oils (SHC), polyglycols (PAG) and ester oils (POE).

Polyglycols based lubricants ensure especially low friction coefficients, which makes them suitable for gears with a high sliding percentage (worm and hypoid gears). With the appropriate additives, they provide excellent antiwear protection in steel/bronze worm gears, and have a good extreme pressure performance.

Polyglycols based Molylub Fluid Syn PG worm gears oil

In gear systems, higher polarity polyglycols allow greater interaction on the metal gear surface. This gives polyglycols mild extreme pressure performance even without additives. Polyglycol oils may have a negative impact on sealing materials and may dissolve some paints. At operating temperatures above 212°F (100°C), only seals made of fluorinated rubber or PTFE are resistant.

POE synthetic ester gear oil Molylub Sorbitol Syn E

Molylub Sorbitol Syn E series ester oils are the result of a reaction of acids and alcohols with water splitting off. There are many types of esters, all of them having an impact on the chemical and physical properties of lubricants. In the past, these lubricating oils were mainly used in aviation technology for the lubrication of aircraft engines and gas turbines as well as gear systems in pumps. Ester oils have a high thermal resistance and excellent low temperature behaviour. In industrial applications, rapidly biodegradable ester oils will gain importance
