Castrol Optigear EP 100 High performance gear oil CLP 20l canister

Castrol Optigear EP 100 Mineral oil-based gear oil ISO VG 100Castrol Optigear™ EP is formulated with Castrol’s Microflux Trans Plastic Deformation (MFT-PD) additives and increased load carrying additives.MFT-PD helps improve performance when operating temperature and loads reach a certain level of activation energy, by enabling the micro-smoothing of surface roughness without increasing wear. The smoothed surface delivers optimum wear protection and an extremely low coefficient of friction, especially in applications which experience extreme pressure, shock loads, vibrations or low speeds.ApplicationIn Optigear EP the combination of MFT-PD low friction, gear oil-CLP and GL5 – FZG Sprungtest performance means this product range is particularly suited for applications where boundary and mixed film lubrication conditions occur. These are conditions are most likely found in gear boxes and bearings which have stop/start motion such as in Robots or Textile machines.The combination of high performance in the GL5 – FZG Sprungtest, FE8 bearing test, elastomer compatibility, low friction makes this range is unique in Industrial gears. Specifications / ApprovalsDIN 51517-3 (CLP)AdvantagesVery high load carrying capacity.Reduction of the coefficient of friction and temperature.Extended operating periods even under high loads and speed.Improvement of the surface quality and smoothing of existing surface damage.Reduced running-in period or even eliminated.Extended service life of gears.Reduced energy, maintenance and disposal costs.Technical specificationsAppearance: clear, yellow/ brownISO Viscosity Group: 100Density @ 15°C / 59°F: 892 kg/m³Kinematic Viscosity @ 40°C / 104°F: 102 mm²/sKinematic Viscosity @ 100°C / 212°F: 11.4 mm²/sViscosity Index: 97Flash Point – open cup method: 240 °CPour Point: -24 °CVolume: 20l canisterAlso available in: 5l canister, 208l barrelGLIS number: 151F3EMSDS code: 467777 Information on product safety (Manufacturer, Contact)BP Europa SE, Erkelenzer Straße 20, 41179 Mönchengladbach, GERMANY, +49 800 7235 074, , www.bp.com
