Fuchs RENOLIN PG 460

Description RENOLIN PG 460

The RENOLIN PG oils are fully synthetic industrial gear oils based on special, newly developed polyglycol base oils. Thus the RENOLIN PG products offer a very high oxidation and temperature stability. Polyglycols have a very good viscosity-temperature behaviour (high natural, shear-stable VI) and can therefore be used within a wide temperature range (depending on the viscosity grade and the working conditions from -35ºC up to 160ºC). Special additives adapted to these polyglycols further improve the good properties of the base oils - high wear protection, excellent corrosion protection also at the presence of condensation water, low foaming, and very good compatibility with non-ferrous metals. The excellent anti-wear properties could be proven in different tests with RENOLIN PG. The load stage >14 was passed in the standard FZG test (FZG A/8,3/90), and the load stage >12 was passed in the FZG test A/16,6/140 (high speed, high temperature FZG test). RENOLIN PG has a high micropitting resistance - load stage “high” - and a good pitting resistance. RENOLIN PG was tested in a special “low speed” FZG test (according to DGMK (Deutsche Wissenschaftliche Gesellschaft für Erdöl, Erdgas und Kohle e.V.) - FZG scuffing test) which RENOLIN PG passed with excellent results (wear category: “low” = excellent). This special test shows the excellent wear protection of RENOLIN PG at two different temperatures (90ºC and 120ºC) under mixed and boundary lubrication conditions. The lubricating film remains stable even at high pressures and under mixed friction conditions. Thus the friction coefficient is low, and a temperature reduction by up to 20ºC can be achieved compared with mineral oil-based lubricants. Efficiency tests in a worm gear test rig demonstrated the high performance and the low friction coefficient which is especially of great importance for the use in worm gears. The results of RENOLIN PG in the FE8 roller bearing wear test were excellent. Tests in a special test rig at the University of Munich (FZG Institute - Forschungsstelle für Zahnräder und Getriebebau) led to excellent results regarding antiwear behaviour and efficiency.

Note

RENOLIN PG is not miscible or compatible with mineral oils, ester oils and polyalphaolefins. When changing between polyglycols from different manufacturers, the compatibility has to be checked. Before changing-over, it is recommended to clean the system and to flush with RENOLIN PG. The compatibility with elastomers, varnishes and coatings should also be checked before changing from mineral oil to polyglycols. The specifications of the roller bearing and gear manufacturers have to be observed.
