Castrol Alphasyn T 220 Synthetic Gear Oil
Castrol Alphasyn T 220 gear oil range – a synthetic industrial lubricant based on polyalphaolefin (PAO) fluids and sulphur/phosphorus anti-wear additive technology providing outstanding thermal stability and good load-carrying capacity.
Alphasyn T has been formulated for use in most types of light to medium-duty enclosed gear systems but should not be used for heavy or shock-loaded systems. Alphasyn T is also suitable for bearings and circulatory systems operating at high temperatures. This range is suitable for various applications where lubricating oil is used under high temperatures, e.g. from hydraulic systems through to large, slow-moving gears. All products in the Alphasyn T range have very low pour points and excellent viscosity and temperature characteristics, allowing their use in both low and high-temperature applications.
The Alphasyn T range is fully compatible with nitrile, silicone and fluoropolymer seal materials.
Alphasyn T is classified as follows:
DIN Classification is CL
The Alphasyn T range meets the requirements of:
- DIN 51517 Part 2
- David Brown Type A
Castrol Alphasyn T 220 Lubricant Advantages:
- Good thermal and oxidative stability provides reliable operation and extended operating life when compared to mineral oil-based products.
- An inherently high viscosity index (VI) makes the product suitable for operations operating over a wide temperature range.
- Good anti-wear and load-carrying abilities minimise gear wear and prolong gear tooth life.
- Reduced downtime through water separation and demulsification characteristics resulting in prolonged lubricant life and increased equipment reliability.
- PAO-based lubricant that provides good compatibility with seals, paints and mineral oil-based lubricants.
