Castrol Optigear ALR X1 Synth. Gear Oil for robots ISO VG 150, 20L

Castrol Optigear™ ALR X1 is a high performance synthetic gear oil (ISO VG 150) designed for lubrication of robot gear boxes. 
Optigear™ ALR X1 has also been coloured yellow in order for Robot manufacturers and End Users to immediately visually detect any leakages.

• Pack size: 20 L canister
• Also available in: 208 L drum

Applications

• Robot gear box systems where oil lubrication is preferred to grease due to high speeds and ease of change over
• Intended to extend oil change intervals versus current commercially available products, allowing for lower downtime and increased maintenance intervals
• Suitable for both low and high temperature applications due to very low pour point and excellent viscosity and temperature characteristics

Specifications & Approvals

• DIN Classification: CLP
• Meets the requirements of: DIN 51517 Part 3

Benefits

• Good thermal and oxidative stability provides reliable operation and extended operating life when compared to mineral oil based products
• Inherently high viscosity index (VI) makes the product suitable for operations over a wide temperature range
• Good anti-wear and load carrying abilities minimises gear wear and prolongs gear tooth life
• Reduced down time through water separation and demulsification characteristics resulting in prolonged lubricant life and increased equipment reliability
• PAO based lubricant that provides good compatibility with seals, paints and mineral oil based lubricants
• Coloured yellow to immediately visually detect any leakages

Product Description

Castrol Optigear™ ALR X1 is a high performance synthetic gear oil designed for lubrication of robot gear boxes. Based on a combination of additives to provide excellent bearing performance, good load carrying and outstanding thermal stability. This synthetic based gear oil is also designed to give an extremely low sludge forming propensity as well as good elastomer/seal compatibility with minimal interaction. Optigear ALR X1 has also been coloured yellow in order for Robot manufacturers and End Users to immediately visually detect any leakages.
