Castrol Optigear Synthetic X - Range is based on synthetic hydrocarbons and Castrol's Microflux Trans (MFT) Plastic Deformation (PD) additive and surface improvement additive package. MFT PD helps improve lubricant 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. MFT PD helps to protect against scuffing and shock loading, while maintaining a high load carrying capacity, and can help prevent the progression of micro-pitting in pre-damaged gears.
Advantages
Optigear Synthetic X has the following advantages when compared to product in a similar class:-
- High load carrying capacity
- Superior micro pitting protection
- Excellent friction reduction
- Good filtration properties
