PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease (GPTR1,
GPTR2) delivers excellent wear protection and extreme-pressure
performance over extended service intervals in medium- and heavy-duty
applications. It combines select base oils, proprietary synthetic
polymeric chemistry, an advanced additive package and a lithium-complex
thickener for excellent impact resistance, reliable contaminant control
and maximum longevity.
Extreme Impact Resistance
Greasable components on heavy-duty trucks and equipment regularly
operate in severe-service, extreme-pressure environments. Frequent
high-load operation increases the potential for grease to pound out,
which can leave components vulnerable to increased wear and corrosion.
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is formulated to deliver
maximum pound-out resistance. Its exceptional adhesion and cohesion
properties help keep the grease in place to seal out water and
contaminants and provide a protective barrier between metal components.
Long Service Life
Most trucking companies work to maximize the amount of time tractors are
on the road, and inferior greases are not engineered to perform over
extended service intervals. The long intervals truckers demand can
result in components being left unprotected because the grease has
squeezed out of place. AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
engineered to remain intact for maximum protection over extended service
intervals. Owners/operators can be assured their equipment is protected
when the job demands additional time on the road between maintenance
checks.
Superior Rust and Corrosion Protection
Over-the-road trucks and commercial equipment operate in all types of
weather. Water, snow and ice are encountered regularly, and they combine
with salt and other road-deicing chemicals to promote accelerated rust
and corrosion on chassis and fifth-wheel components. AMSOIL Truck,
Chassis and Equipment Grease clings tenaciously to metal surfaces,
helping to keep rain, snow and other corrosive contaminants from
penetrating greasable components. It is formulated with an advanced
additive package designed to combat the harmful effects of roadway
contaminants, helping components last longer and saving fleets money.
Maximum Extreme-Pressure Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
engineered for maximum protection in extreme-pressure applications. It
features a sophisticated additive package and exclusive synthetic
polymeric technology designed to provide long-term protection for
heavily loaded components. AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease’s
high Timken OK Load and excellent Four-Ball Weld Test results prove its
superior performance in extreme-pressure environments.
Ideal for Fleets
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is ideal for mixed fleets
that operate in severe service. It provides exceptional protection and
long service life for a broad range of applications.
Cost-Effective Choice
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease offers enhanced protection
for extended component life, reducing replacement costs. In addition,
its long service life reduces the need for frequent re-application (or
requires less grease at each servicing), reducing maintenance costs.
Reduced Environmental Impact
Less-tenacious greases are ejected from greased components and pollute
the surrounding environment. AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease
is formulated to stay in place for long service intervals, resulting in
less grease pollution and reduced grease consumption. In addition,
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is formulated without the use
of barium, chlorine, antimony or sulfur, which are all potentially
harmful to the environment.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
recommended for heavy-duty over-the-road tractors and trailers, delivery
fleets, dump trucks, refuse haulers, utility fleets, emergency service
vehicles, sewer and septic trucks, snow removal vehicles, wreckers,
municipal service vehicles, equipment haulers, cement mixer trucks,
airport support vehicles and more.
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Grease provides exceptional performance in
heavily loaded chassis grease points, wheel bearings, axle assemblies,
universal joints, pivot pins, fifth-wheel hitch plates, steering
linkages, spring pins, king pins, ball joints, water pump bearings and
other greased heavy-duty components.
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
compatible with many other types of grease. However, it is recommended
that when changing greases, the equipment be cleaned of the old grease
or flushed with a liberal amount of AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Grease
while the mechanism is in operation. Closely monitor the system for any
inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility questions should be referred
to your AMSOIL Dealer or AMSOIL INC.
*Note: AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Grease is designed to remain in
place for long service intervals. The same properties that provide its
enhanced tenacity can also make it harder to pump. A heavy follower
plate may be necessary when pumping grease from larger package sizes.
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is not recommended for
automatic or centralized lubrication systems unless the system is
designed to pump a tackier grease.
