Exceptional Oil Life

RPVOT of 2,500 minutes and TOST of 10,000+ hours — outstanding oxidation resistance that enables extended drain intervals in enclosed gearboxes and compressors operating in continuous duty cycles.

Wide Temperature Range

Viscosity index of 166 and pour point of -48°C — exceptional cold-start performance for remote, elevated or cold-climate applications. Maintains adequate film thickness at elevated operating temperatures without viscosity thinning.

Energy Efficiency

Low traction coefficient of the PAO base stock reduces fluid friction in gear contacts and rolling element bearings — producing lower operating temperatures and measurable energy savings up to 3.6% vs mineral equivalents in circulating and gear applications.

Gas Compressor Capability

Approved for oil-flooded rotary screw compressors compressing natural gas, field gas gathering, CO2 and other process gases used in the natural gas industry — a unique dual capability not available in most industrial gear oils.

Shear Stability

Virtually no viscosity loss under mechanical shear in heavily loaded gear and high-shear bearing applications — maintains ISO VG 150 protection throughout the service interval unlike thickened mineral oils.

Rust, Corrosion & Water Resistance

Passes ASTM D665 Procedure B rust test. Excellent demulsibility, foam control and air release performance — critical for marine thruster applications (Rolls-Royce approved) and offshore gear drives exposed to seawater contamination.

Industrial Enclosed Gearboxes

Flender-approved gearboxes (ISO 629–636) · SEW-Eurodrive gearboxes · High-speed, lightly loaded enclosed gearboxes where ISO VG 150 is OEM-specified · Fan and blower drives · Agitators and pump gearboxes · Remote gearboxes where extended drain intervals reduce access frequency

Gas Compressors

Oil-flooded rotary screw compressors compressing natural gas · Field gas gathering applications · CO2 compression · Other process gas applications in the natural gas industry — a specific approval not shared by most industrial gear oils at this viscosity grade

Marine & Offshore

Rolls-Royce Marine approved for thruster lubrication (DWG No 100019001RevB) · Offshore deck machinery gearboxes · Marine auxiliary drives in corrosive seawater environments · Applications requiring outstanding rust and corrosion protection under water contamination

Bearings & Other Applications

High-speed rolling element bearings where ISO VG 150 is specified · Severe centrifuge applications including marine centrifuges · Low temperature applications where seasonal oil changes can be avoided · Remotely located equipment where change-out is difficult
