PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Gear
Compound (GFW) is based on proprietary technology resulting in a lubricant
that does not use asphaltic materials, residual compounded oils or diluent
solvents as part of the lubricant formulation.* Typical gear compounds are
composed of asphaltic and residual oils cut with solvent to ease application
and use. Synthetic GFW does not require solvents to assist the product in
application and use, even in cold weather.
*Aerosol spray contains a solvent that
evaporates quickly leaving a solvent-free film of material on treated
surfaces.
WIDE OPERATING
TEMPERATURE RANGE
AMSOIL 5th Wheel Grease performs well in
cold temperatures and resists dripping off at high temperatures, reducing
the need for frequent re-lubrication.
ADHESION TO METAL
AMSOIL 5th Wheel Grease provides excellent
adhesion to metal surfaces in cold and hot temperatures. Tackiness allows it
to stay in place in high-speed applications, even when applied to open gears
or chains. Spray formulation offers quick and easy application.
WATER WASHOUT
RESISTANT
AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Compound
is formulated to repel water, protect metal parts from rust corrosion and
stay in place to protect gears from wear.
HANDLES HEAVY
LOADS
AMSOIL 5th Wheel Grease provides a tough
grease film to handle heavy loads and help prevent metal parts from
contacting.
PERFORMANCE FEATURES
- Excellent resistance to water washout
- Environmentally preferable to
solvent-containing formulations
- Protects ferrous surfaces from rust
- Excellent adhesion to metal surfaces
- Forms a tacky, tenacious film
- Heavy load-carrying and extreme-pressure
performance
- Stays pliable at cold temperatures
and does not flake off
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Gear
Compound may be applied to fifth-wheels, open gears, chains, flexible
couplings, sliding surfaces of drag lines and shovels, construction
equipment, dredging equipment or any application where a heavy, tenacious
lubricant is required.
Performance Data
AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Gear Compound meets the AGMA 14R and
NLGI #1.5 performance specifications.
Installation
AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Gear Compound is fully compatible with
other fifth-wheel and open gear compounds and may be applied to surfaces
previously treated with other fifth-wheel and open gear compounds.
