Product Description
Spartan EP lubricants are a family of industrial extreme pressure gear lubricants. They are formulated with high quality mineral oils, which help reduce sludge formation helping to increase oil service life. Spartan EP oils contain a sulphur / phosphorus extreme pressure additive system that gives high load carrying ability and protection against wear. In addition these oils provide strong protection against corrosion of steel and copper containing alloys and resist foaming. Spartan EP oils have good water handling properties so that water rapidly separates from the oil for easy water elimination.
Spartan EP oils can be used in either splash or circulating systems. Spartan EP gear oils are suitable for use wherever industrial gear oil is required. Spartan EP grades are suitable for the lubrication of heavily loaded enclosed gear sets including spur, helical and bevel designs and provide protection in applications where shock loading occurs. Spartan EP may also be used in worm gears where specified. They may also be used for lubrication of plain bearings, and in rolling contact (anti-friction) bearings.
Features and Benefits
Spartan EP oils enjoy a reputation for quality and consistency, as well as the ability to handle a variety of tough gear applications. They are manufactured with high quality mineral stocks and a specially chosen additive system. Spartan EP lubricants are manufactured under the highest level of quality assurance and control in our modern blending facilities
Spartan EP gear oils offer the following benefits:
- EP wear protection of gears and bearings
- Resistance to sludge formation leads to outstanding system cleanliness
- Very good oxidation resistance for long oil charge life
- Very good demulsibility to ease water removal
- Manufactured under our stringent Product Quality Manangement System (PQMS) quality control standards.
Applications
Spartan EP gear oils are used in a wide range of industrial spur, helical, bevel and steel-on-steel worm gearing.
Specific applications include:
- Drives for conveyers, agitators, dryers, fans, mixers, presses, pulpers, pumps, screens, extruders, oil well pumps
- Industrial bearings- journal and rolling contact, especially operating at low speeds and high loads
