LubeMax SYN WormGear 220

GZ Industrial supplies is the distributor and supplier of Lubemax lubricants in Nigeria.

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 is an advanced synthetic heavy duty industrial worm drive gear oil formulated using specially selected polyalkylene glycol base fluids and additives. It offers outstanding lubrication performance under severe operating conditions, including improved energy efficiency, long service life and high resistance to micro-pitting.

APPLICATION

Recommended for industrial worm gear reduction systems operating under severe operating conditions, such as high load, very low or elevated temperatures and wide temperature variations.

Extended life systems

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 is particularly recommended for certain systems where maintenance is infrequent or systems are inaccessible (eg yaw gears in wind turbine installations).

Other applications

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 oils are suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splash- lubricated systems.

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 is not recommended for the lubrication of components manufactured from aluminium or aluminium alloys.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Long oil life - maintenance saving

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 is formulated to provide excellent oxidation and thermal stability, extending lubricant life and resisting the formation of harmful oxidation products at high operating temperatures. This helps maintain system cleanliness over extended maintenance intervals.

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 offers the potential to extend service intervals significantly compared to conventional industrial

gear oils.

Excellent wear protection

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 is formulated to have excellent load carrying capacity providing long component life even under shock loading conditions. It also has a high resistance to micro-pitting. These features provide benefits over mineral oil-based products in terms of gear and bearing component

life.

Maintaining system efficiency

LubeMax SYN WormGear 220 offers improved energy efficiency and lower operating temperatures in worm gear applications. Rig testing has shown efficiency improvements of up to 15% in comparison with mineral oil-based products and 11% over other synthetic hydrocarbon-based lubricants. These results have been confirmed by OEM testing and field experience.

TECHNICAL PROPERTIES

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

1. What is worm gear oil?

Worm gear oil is a type of lubricant that is specially designed for worm gear systems, which are composed of a worm (a spiral or screw-shaped driving gear) and a worm wheel (a spur-shaped driven gear). Worm gear oil provides lubrication, protection and heat transfer for the worm gear system

2. What oil to use in a worm drive gearbox?

Compounded mineral oils, EP mineral gear oils, and synthetics are the most popular types of lubricants used to lubricate worm gears. Each has distinct traits, and all three types can be used successfully.

3. What are some common problems or issues related to worm gear oil?

Some common problems or issues related to worm gear oil are foaming, air entrainment, cavitation, emulsification, oxidation, and wear. They can affect the performance and reliability of the worm gear system. To prevent them, ensure you are using good quality oil, maintaining proper oil level and temperature, filtering out contaminants, avoiding moisture ingress and following regular maintenance practices.
