5180: Metso Mineral Grinding

LE's proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Grease contains Almasol.

Almasol® solid wear-reducing additive is able to withstand extremely heavy loads, chemical attack and temperatures up to 1,900oF (1,038oC). It is attracted to metal surfaces, forming a microscopic layer but not building on itself or affecting clearances. Almasol minimizes metal-to-metal contact and the resulting friction, heat and wear.

Conclusion

The graph clearly shows the outstanding preventive wear performance that Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Grease provides as compared to competitive products. Load Wear Index (LWI) is a measure of lubricant's ability to carry a load and minimize wear. The higher the value, the better the lubricant does in preventing wear.

• For best results when switching to Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Grease, first clean the area of application with LE's Duolec® Vari-Purpose Gear Lubricant (1609).

• Use adequate ventilation if used indoors. These lubricants contain a safe, non-chlorinated solvent for improved pumpability and ease of application at low temperatures.
• After application, the solvent evaporates. The resulting lubricant is an NLGI grade 2 grease.
• 5180 should not be further diluted with solvent, even if partial evaporation has occurred, as the functional characteristics could be altered.

• Various applications in the mining and mineral processing industry
• Open gears and slides
• Ball mill open gears
• Kiln open gears
• Bar screens
• Dipper sticks
• Circle rails
