Explanation
CASTROL OPTITEMP ™ XBT 1 LF is a lubricant designed for overload in all types of constant speed connections. Completely
the synthetic product has excellent high and low temperature properties. Thanks to special additives
reduced friction coefficient saves fuel. The product further lowers the temperature at the joint and
improves noise and vibration behavior (NVH). Compatibility with traditional shoe materials is excellent.
Application
Application homokinetic ball and tripod joints (MoS2 free)
Suitable for connections on side shafts and high-speed connections on propeller shafts.
All kinds of vehicles where "fuel economy" is required.
Vehicles that have a direct effect on driving comfort by periodic axial forces in the joint.
The joints are subjected to high mechanical and thermal loads.
Application at extreme temperatures:
-40 ° C low temperature
Constant temperature 160 ° C (in CV joints)
Maximum temperature 180 ° C (in CV joints)
In high slip friction components.
Advantages
Wide range of application
Extremely wide temperature range
High service life, excellent wear behavior
Very low friction coefficients
Excessive reduction in axial forces at the joint
Good oxidation stability
Optimal boot compatibility with CR and Hytrel
"Fuel economy ”" up to 0.05 L / 100 km in some cases)
Significant drop in operating temperatures
Low evaporation losses
