Castrol Optigear Synthetic RO 150 Synthetic gear oil PAO 20L

High performance gear oil ISO VG 150

Castrol Optigear™ Synthetic RO150 high-performance synthetic oil (PAO based), developed especially for gears used in rail trafficand mechanical engineering applications (such as in Robots).

Application

• Optigear Synthetic RO 150 can be used for all types of spur gear teeth, also under difficult load conditions.
• Bevel gear units, including those with a large offset (hypoid) and heavy alternating loads.
• All types of roller bearings, with heavy loads and low and high temperatures.
• Can be used in a very broad range of temperatures (no preheating needed in winter).
• Dip lubrication at high numbers of revolutions, as well as injection and oil mist lubrication.
• Filtering (mechanical) does not result in any additive loss.
• Not for synchronised gears or limited slip differentials due to low friction coefficients.

Specifications / Approvals

• DIN 51517-3 (CLP)

Advantages

• High pressure absorption and excellent wear protection¹
