HUSKEY™ LPC SERIES GEAR OILS
Description
HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS are high performance, full synthetic, all-purpose gear oils formulated with HUSKEY’S new proprietary SEM (Surface Eutectic Modification) additive. The revolutionary new SEM technology makes it a Lower Power Consumption (LPC) gear oil, hence the name LPC Gear Oil. They offer maximum wear protection under extreme operating conditions such as vibrations, scuffing, oscillating motions and shock loads, where metal asperity contact occurs. Because of the thermally and mechanically stable polyalphaolefin base oils and SEM technology, HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS give extra protection to micro-pitting due to asperity contact. In addition, compared to both conventional mineral and synthetic gear oils the HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS have proven they can lower operating temperatures of the gear box resulting in lower power costs. Due to their high viscosity index they provide effortless startup even during cold temperatures; yet give extra wear protection in high temperature applications. The added anti foam protection gives extra protection to high speed gear boxes. In addition, the demulsification properties of HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS provide very fast separation from water contamination. They meet or exceed all *major gear oil specifications, original equipment manufacturer requirements and wind turbine manufacturers.
Advantages
- Excellent Load Carrying Capacity Reduces Micro-Pitting at High Shock Loads.
- Protects Against Rust, Corrosion, Foaming, and has Excellent Demulsibilty.
- Reduces Energy Consumption and Operating Temperature
- High Viscosity Index Base Oils Reduce Viscosity Change with Temperature
- Clean Gear Technology Reduces Deposits and Residues at High Temperatures.
- Helps Quiet Worn and Noisy Gears
Usage
HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS may be used on all worm, spur, herringbone and planetary industrial gear sets. Some applications include highly loaded gear boxes used in the paper, steel, oil, textile, lumber and cement industries where gear protection and maximum oil life are required. Because they protect against micro-pitting wear, have excellent filterability and a wide temperature range, HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS are highly recommended for wind turbine gear boxes.
