Castrol Tribol 1100/150 (Optigear 1100/150), 185KG

Castrol Tribol® 1100 gear oils with the TGOA® (Tribol Gear Oil Additive) represent a significant advancement in gear oil technology. Developed for service in enclosed gear drives, sliding and rolling bearings, the Tribol® 1100 gear oils are typically used where heavy and shock load conditions prevail. Castrol Tribol® 1100 gear oils are manufactured from the highest quality petroleum base oils. Blended into this oil is the latest development in the field of surface improving additives designated TGOA®. TGOA® is an oil soluble additive package designed to reduce friction while providing surface protection and improvement. The TGOA® additive package outperforms all other EP and antiwear additives because of its unique action on frictional surfaces. The TGOA® additive package is activated by high specific loads and corresponding temperatures causing a chemical-physical reaction. This results in an equalization of surface roughness without creating abrasion. Therefore, surface roughness is reduced without the loss of surface material. The results of the TGOA® additives can be compared with a rolling process in the micro-range. The surface roughnesses are gradually levelled and smoothed. Through smoothing of the working surfaces, the loads are distributed over increasing areas and the actual load carrying area is enlarged. During the running-in process, the TGOA® additive package creates an optimum of smooth contact surfaces. If, because of shock loads or stop-and-go operation, surface roughness peaks redevelop, the TGOA® additive package is automatically reactivated. Surface roughness is again equalized and lubrication optimized.
