CASTROL ALPHASYN PG 460

Castrol Alphasyn™ PG 220 gear oil is a synthetic lubricant based on polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) fluids enhanced with antioxidants, rust inhibitors and Extreme Pressure (EP) additives of high thermal stability.

Application
Alphasyn PG 220 gear oil is primarily intended for use in worm reduction gearboxes, where the low coefficient of friction of the PAG base fluid improves efficiency and consequently reduces power consumption and operating temperatures. This is particularly important in applications where sliding contact is high.
The use of a PAG base stock provides inherently high Viscosity Index (VI) and low pour point makes the product suitable for use over a wide temperature range. Alphasyn PG 220 meets the requirements of most OEM’s that allow the use of PAG based gear oils.

Advantages
-Low coefficient of friction reduces energy consumption and lowers operating temperatures, this leads to longer oil life.
-Good thermal and oxidative stability provides reliable operation and extended operating life when compared to mineral oil based products.
-Inherently high VI makes the product suitable for operations over a wide temperature range.
-High load carrying capacity and good wear protection reduces maintenance.
