Description: Supreme Gear Lube is a multipurpose, thermally stable, thermally durable, parasynthetic gear lubricant recommended for use in all types of enclosed industrial and automotive gear drives where extreme pressure characteristics are needed. Supreme Gear Lube is blended from the finest, high quality, severely hydrotreated, polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base fluids and severely solvent refined, severely hydrofinished, high viscosity index, 100% pure paraffin base oils available. This unique combination provides Supreme Gear Lube with the following advantages: 1. Excellent low temperature properties which results in the bearings and gears being instantly lubricated at sub-zero temperatures the moment they start turning. 2. Superior oxidation stability. 3. Excellent resistance to thermal degradation 4. Excellent hydrolytic and demulsibility characteristics 5. Low coefficients of traction, which result in fuel economy benefits. 6. A high viscosity index 7. Increased wear protection and longer gear life 8. Compatibility with all types of seals. Blended into these parasynthetic base oils is a highly specialized, non-corrosive, thermally stable, thermally durable, multifunctional, extreme pressure additive package that provides the Supreme Gear Lube with the following performance advantages: 1. Enhanced thermal and oxidation stability and durability to handle operating temperatures of 250ºF to 300ºF. 2. Excellent extreme pressure properties to protect the gears and bearings from excessive wear and fatigue. 3. Prevention of the formation of sludge and carbon deposits that can erode seals 4. Excellent seal compatibility. 5. Enhanced protection of copper, brass and bronze components from corrosion. 6. Non-corrosivity to brass, bronze and other non-ferrous metal parts. 7. Excellent protection of components from rust and corrosion in dry conditions and in the presence of moisture. 8. Excellent resistance to water and moisture 9. Excellent water separability characteristics 10. Enhanced gear, bearing and seal cleanliness 11. Excellent resistance to foaming. The trend among automotive and industrial gear drive manufacturers is to operate the equipment at higher speeds, loads, power densities and increased torque which results in higher operating temperatures and extreme thermal stress on the gear lubricants. Therefore, it is important that gear lubricants possess thermal stability and thermal durability characteristics. Gear lubricants without these properties rapidly oxidize and decompose at high temperatures which results in: the formation of sludge, varnish, and carbon deposits on the gears, bearings and seals; abraded seals, premature seal hardening and brittleness; and loss of the extreme pressure additives’ ability to protect against excessive wear, spalling and overall distress to the gears and bearings. Supreme Gear Lube resists oxidation and thermal stress at operating temperatures 150F to 175F higher than conventional gear lubricants because of the use of parasynthetic base oils and a thermally stable, thermally durable, multifunctional, extreme pressure additive package. This combination provides the following benefits: 1. A vast reduction in the formation of deposits. 2. Better heat transfer. 3. Excellent protection to the gears and bearings even under the most extreme thermally, stressed operating conditions. 4. Less wear to gears, bearings and seals. 5. Increased oil seal life. 6. Lower operating temperatures 7. Less energy consumption 8. Longer lubricant and equipment life 9. Reduced equipment downtime and maintenance costs Most gearing is designed to perform under hydrodynamic lubrication conditions. That is, a full fluid film must separate the metal surfaces of the gears and bearings during operation. However, during periods of cold start up, extremely high operating temperatures or high shock loading conditions this full fluid film can be destroyed. Boundary lubrication is needed to prevent excessive wear when this full fluid film is destroyed. Micron Moly®, a proven friction reducer, is added to Supreme Gear Lube to provide boundary lubrication. Micron Moly®, a liquid soluble type moly, plates itself to the metal surfaces of the gears and bearings. Once plated, Micron Moly® forms an indestructible, long-lasting, solid lubricant film capable of withstanding pressures up to 500,000 psi. This solid lubricant film, once plated to the gears and bearings, will reduce friction, vibration, and wear, thus extending equipment life. Micron Moly® also provides a smooth finished surface on all moving parts of the gear drives. This smooth finish minimizes the action of cold welding and vibration, which can occur during start up after the gears have been standing idle and during periods of high shock loading. This in turn lessens starting loads and peak power demand; thus, resulting in a realistic fuel economy cost savings. Supreme Gear Lube contains an adhesive-cohesive additive, which allows the product to tenaciously stick and cling to the gears and bearings. This ensures that Supreme Gear Lube retains a fine film that “stays put” on the metal surface of the gears and bearings regardless of how thoroughly it is wiped away. Supreme Gear Lube contains the proper additive system to function and lubricate limited slip, positraction, and high offset hypoid gear rear ends and differentials.
