Gear Oil:
RPL-GL Series
The RPL-GL series gear oil is formulated using highly
refined, hydro-treated paraffin base oils with special
additives to protect heavily loaded bearings and gear
sets for industrial lubrication. These additives provide
high EP properties for high load carrying ability which
greatly reduces wear. They also provide enhanced
oxidation and thermal stability which resists the
formation of acidic by-products including soft sludge
deposits and hard varnish or lacquer coatings on metal
surfaces, especially at higher operating temperatures. These deposits lead to friction, increased heat,
increased energy consumption and eventually the
possibility of premature equipment breakdown.
The RPL-GL gear oils are tacky. They contain a shear
stable tackifier for extra-adhesive to prevent
drip-drown, leak and splatter. Gear box leakage is also
virtually eliminated, especially when there are worn
seals. The overall result is a noticeable reduction in
overall oil consumption.
The RPL-GL gear oils are used in a wide variety of
industrial and mobile equipment including enclosed gear
systems, chain drives, sprockets, plain and roller
bearings, slide guides, flexible couplings, cams and
open chains. They provide superior lubrication for
enclosed gear drives and reducers from fractional
horsepower gear motors to large high horsepower units on
metal rolling mills and mine hoists using a wide variety
of gears including spur, bevel, herringbone and worm
gear.

No special precautions are required. Follow regular
maintenance instructions as provided with original
equipment. Although the RPL-GL gear oils are compatible with
conventional oils, it is recommended to thoroughly drain and
clean systems prior to switching over. The proper type of
grade of gear oil is important to the performance and life
of a gear set. Selection of the correct lubricant viscosity
is based on speed, load, operating temperatures and gear
geometry.
RPL-GL gear oils are recommended for the lubrication of
industrial hypoid type gears, for gears subjected to shock
loading, transmission gear cases and worm drive axles on
mobile contractor type equipment, open pit and underground
mining machinery.
All RPL-GL gear oils meet or exceed the performance
requirements of US Steel 224 and AGMA 250.04 and AGMA 251.02
specifications for industrial gear oil.
