Description
CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF NG is a uniquely compounded open gear lubricant developed specifically for use on
heavy duty mining equipment. It is compounded to give maximum protection to gears and slides on draglines and shovels
minimising potential pollution to the environment.
Formulated to address environmental concerns, CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF NG is free of lead, antimony, barium
and chlorinated solvents. No solvents of any kind are used.
A highly refined, viscous, paraffinic petroleum derivative is the foundation of a blended base fluid with excellent natural
chemical and thermal stability. CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF NG is compounded to flow readily in the film-forming
process, yet it resists "squeeze-out" and clings tenaciously to gear teeth even in vertical position.
A proprietary blend of CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® lubricating solids is included to promote antiwear and load carrying
properties beyond those of conventional lubricants. The selected lubricating solids work synergistically with chemical
antiwear and EP additives, to reduce friction. Rust and oxidation inhibitors are included in the formulation to protect the
equipment and the lubricating film against the elements in severe climates.
Application
Mining applications include all types of open gears, rails and rollers, racks and pinions, dipper sticks, saddle blocks and
other slides on draglines and shovels.
Advantages
CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF NG is free of solvents and materials considered to be hazardous to the
environment.
CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF NG forms a tough, durable lubricating film with a "cushioning" effect, even
under extreme pressure and at low speeds. The film resists erosion from rain or sleet and resists peeling in dusty
environments.
Additional Information
CASTROL MOLUB-ALLOY® 936 SF may be applied either manually or by heavy-duty automatic systems and should pump
and spray readily down to freezing temperatures.
