PAL OGC

OPEN GEAR COMPOUNDS

These are heavy viscous black bituminous product, fortified with special EP and thickness agents. They have excellent film strength to withstand the high pressure normally encountered in heavily loaded open gears. They also possess good antiwear and antirust properties. They are homogeneous and heat reversible, i.e., they return to the same homogeneous state after heating as before heating. Thus they have the ability to stay in place and provide protection to open gears and wire ropes.

Recommended for lubrication of open gears, cable and wire ropes.

Not recommended for lightly loaded open gears and not to be used in food processing industries.
