Heavy-Duty Synthetic Grease Provides Extreme Protection

Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Grease is a heavy-duty synthetic lubricant developed for large unshrouded open gears in the mining, mineral processing and cement industries, and for other severe service applications that require a lubricant with superior wear protection, exceptional load-carrying ability, outstanding tackiness and ease of application at various temperatures. It also works well for applications in which gears experience high point-of-contact temperatures of 327ºC (620ºF) and above.

A product of advanced lubricant technology providing boundary lubrication, unmatched performance and versatility, Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Grease is formulated with high-viscosity 100 percent synthetic base oil, a non-melting thickening system and LE's proprietary heat stable additives. It contains a synergistic mix of Almasol®, LE's exclusive wear-reducing additive, and a unique combination of extreme pressure additives.

Pyroshield®, Almasol® and Duolec® are registered trademarks of Lubrication Engineers, Inc.

Lubrication Engineers operates under an ISO 9001 Certified Quality System.

Proprietary Additive

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.

Pyroshield vs Competitive Open Gear Lubricants LWI

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.

Recommendations

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