CASTROL Spheerol SY 2202

Description

The Castrol Spheerol™ SY series (previously called Energrease™ SY) are super premium extreme pressure (EP)

greases primarily intended for a wide variety of applications at extremes of temperature. They combine the unique

features of a synthetic base fluid with those of a lithium complex thickener. The wax-free nature of the synthetic base oil

and the low coefficient of traction (compared with mineral oils), provide excellent low temperature pumpability and very

low starting and running torque. They offer the potential for energy savings and can reduce operating temperatures in the

load zone of rolling element bearings. The lithium complex thickener gives excellent adhesion, structural stability and

water resistance. The greases have a high level of chemical stability and provide excellent protection against wear, rust

and corrosion; at high and low temperatures.

Spheerol SY series do not contain - lead, chlorine or nitrites.

Application

Spheerol SY 1501 is an NLGI 1 grade grease with an exceptionally high ISO VG 1500 synthetic base fluid. It is intended

for use in plain and rolling element bearings operating at extremely slow speeds, under heavy loads and high

temperatures. Spheerol SY 1501 has a recommended operating temperature range of -20°C to 180°C with appropriate

re-lubrication intervals.

Spheerol SY 2202 is a multi-purpose, extreme pressure grease recommended for heavy duty automotive and industrial

applications. It uses an ISO VG 220 synthetic fluid and although it is a NLGI 2 grade product, it has excellent low

temperature pumpability and a recommended operating temperature range of -40°C to 180°C.

Spheerol SY 4601 is recommended for tough industrial applications. It gives outstanding bearing protection under high

loads at low to moderate speeds and in applications where water resistance is critical. Spheerol SY 4601 is

recommended for use in steel and paper mills. Recommended operating temperature range is -40°C to 180°C.

Spheerol SY 4600 is formulated from an ISO VG 460 synthetic base fluid to an NLGI grade 00 consistency.

Recommended operating temperature range is -40°C to 180°C. It's primary use is in grease filled gear cases subject to

high temperatures, where conventional semi-fluid greases deteriorate rapidly. It is also suited for sealed heavy-duty

truck wheel bearings.

Advantages

Spheerol SY series offer the following benefits:

Reduced downtime and maintenance costs because of reduced wear, rust and corrosion

Outstanding high and low temperature performance

Extended service life with longer intervals between re-lubrication

Reduced energy consumption due to low traction coefficient

Ability to perform well in the presence of water
