More about SWEPCO 222 Sprayable EP Open Gear Lube – Easy Application, Maximum Protection
SWEPCO 222 Sprayable EP Open Gear Lube is a tacky, transparent, blue product that is formulated specifically for open and shrouded gears. Many competitor products are asphalt based or opaque making gear tooth inspection messy and difficult.
Advantages of SWEPCO 222 SPRAYABLE EP OPEN GEAR LUBE:
- Is a fully synthetic, non-asphalt-based lubricant formulated to meet the unique challenges of highly loaded exposed and shrouded gear sets.
- Outperforms traditionally used asphalt-based products and provides superior long-lasting protection of gears and equipment.
- Is a state-of-the-art additive chemistry and pure high viscosity synthetic base fluids provide excellent resistance to wear, corrosion, and water. This combination cushions the gears from shock loads and extreme pressure situations.
- Contains a diluent that makes it easy to handle and apply to the gear set. The diluent evaporates off leaving a tough viscous film of lubricant that adheres to the metal surface and spreads to all the gear teeth surfaces. Will not sling off teeth at higher speeds.
- Provides a translucent film that permits easier inspection of gear surfaces. Asphalt-based and other opaque lubricants must be removed prior to inspection.
- Will not “build-up” on gears or in tooth roots. Nor require frequent clean off to prevent uneven wear. SWEPCO 222 will not melt or run off.
Where to Use:
- Mines and quarries in the rock crushers, shifters, and grinders. Also, ball mills and Rod mills.
- Coal fired power plants in the ball and rod mills.
- Seed processing facilities in the crushers, mills, and transfer equipment.
- Drawbridges and canal locks.
- Fire fighting equipment on offshore and land-based drilling rigs.
- Cranes and stevedoring equipment.
- Steel and lumber mills.
- Sand and Gravel companies.
- Rotary Kilns and ovens.
- Concrete plants.
- Swing gears on shovels and draglines.
