Castrol Optigear 1100/320 High performance gear oil 20l canister

Castrol Optigear 1100/320 Mineral oil-based gear oil ISO VG 320Castrol Optigear™ 1100 Range (previously called Tribol™ 1100 Range) of high-performance extreme pressure gear oils, developed to tackle wear-related problems in heavily loaded industrial gears and bearings. Developed for service in enclosed gear drives, sliding and rolling bearings, the Optigear 1100 gear oils are typically used where heavy and shock load conditions prevail.ApplicationOptigear 1100 oils are particularly valuable in the running-in phase as well as in applications where surfaces have already been damaged in the micro-range. Typical applications are spur, helical, herringbone, bevel and planetary gears as well as in geared couplings. Optigear 1100 gear oils may be used in rolling and sliding bearings. Particularly suitable for Heavy duty reciprocating pumps for drilling mud or cement placement offshore and onshore drilling sites. Optigear 1100 oils have good water separation properties.Specifications / ApprovalsDIN 51517-3 (CLP)ISO 12925-1 (CKC)AdvantagesTests have shown a reduction in the coefficient of friction of up to 60% over conventional oils without PD technology¹ which can deliver energy savings, lower lubricant and component temperatures and improve operational efficiencyIn laboratory tests Castrol PD additives were shown to prevent the progression of micro-pitting in pre-damaged gears. Non-PD oils used in pre-damaged gears showed existing wear levels increased up to three times²Smoothing existing gear damage reduces the cost of repairs and replacements and improves operating efficiency by increasing equipment reliabilityFriction, heat and vibration are reducedOil with Castrol PD additives provides superior protection with wear levels of less than half those observed in tests with conventional non-PD oil³ to help extend planned gear and bearing lifeExtended lubricant service life and relubrication intervals can help to reduce costs and waste oil disposalFull load operation is achieved in a short time, virtually eliminating the running-in periodTechnical specificationsISO Visocity Grade: 320Density @ 15°C / 59°F kg/m³: 912Kinematic Viscosity @ 40°C / 104°F mm²/s: 317Kinematic Viscosity @ 100°C / 212°F mm²/s: 23.6Viscosity Index: 95Flash Point – open cup method °C/°F: 250/482Pour Point °C/°F: -21/-5.8Volume: 20l canisterAlso available in: 208l barrelGLIS number: 156DBEMSDS code: 468690 Information on product safety (Manufacturer, Contact)BP Europa SE, Erkelenzer Straße 20, 41179 Mönchengladbach, GERMANY, +49 800 7235 074, , www.bp.com
