Description

Castrol Tribol?OG 500-0 Spray with TGOA (previously called Castrol Tribol? 5000 Spray) is a new, sprayable highperformance

open gear grease. It was especially developed for application in cement, mining and other heavy

industries, to assure proper tribo-technical and economical maintenance of open gears.

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 differs from conventional asphaltic type open gear lubricants, as it does not contain solvents nor

solids.

Outstanding extreme pressure (EP) antiwear characteristics are derived from the latest development in the field of

surface improving additives designated TGOA. The TGOA additive package performs better than other EP and antiwear

additives because of its unique action on frictional surfaces.

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is approved by major original equipment manufacturers.

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is manufactured from mineral oil, selected for optimum physical and chemical stability, blended

with special adhesive agents and thickened with aluminum complex soap.

The TGOA additive package is activated by high specific loads and corresponding temperatures causing a chemical

physical reaction. This results in an equalization of surface roughness without creating abrasion. Therefore, surface

roughnesses are reduced without the loss of surface material.

The results of the TGOA additives can be compared with a rolling process in the micro range. The surface

roughnessess are gradually leveled and smoothed.

The load carrying area is increased with increased safety loads on tooth flanks at reduced friction levels.

If, because of shock loads or stop and go operation, surface roughness peaks redevelop, the TGOA additive package is

automatically reactivated. Surface roughness is again equalized and lubrication optimized.

Application

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is a high-performance lubricant for open gears, wire ropes and similar applications.

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is recommended for the use on slow moving, heavily loaded open gears.

It is also used to lubricate rack-and-pinion gears, wire ropes, slides, cams and other machinery in mills and

mines and other heavy industries.

Temperature range: 20°C up to + 120°C, +140°C intermittent.

Conditions of Use

Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 should not be mixed with greases of a different thickener.

Relubrication intervals should be adjusted according to operating conditions.
