CASTROL Molub-Alloy 4086/460-1

Description

Castrol Molub-Alloy

TM

4086 high performance bearing grease is a heavy duty all-weather grease manufactured from high

quality components, carefully selected for their compatibility with Molub-Alloy lubricating solids. Molub-Alloy 4086 has

good film strength and is formulated to protect against friction and wear under heavy loading due to a proprietary blend of

Molub-Alloy solid lubricants.

Application

Castrol Molub-Alloy 4086 is designed for industries with applications most commonly requiring the heavy duty, all weather

capabilities of this range including steel, mining, logging, chemical, and construction. It is particularly useful where

conditions require sealing against outside contaminants such as dust and water.

Molub-Alloy 4086 range operates effectively in plain, journal, and antifriction bearings. They exhibit adhesive and

cohesive characteristics and are resistant to mechanical shearing. Typical applications are in ball and roller bearings,

bushings, slides, screws, and general lubrication where loads may be heavy and speeds low.

Molub-Alloy 4086/460-1 grease is Bucyrus certified (with lubricating solids <5% by weight and <10 µm max

particle size).

Molub-Alloy 4086 bearing grease can be applied by any standard grease dispensing method.

Advantages

• Excellent friction reduction characteristics due to Molub-Alloy solid lubricants – easier start-up, reduced heat,

and reduced energy leading to longer bearing life

• Excellent EP and anti-wear properties – protects equipment against extreme/shock loading and helps minimise bearing

component wear and hence extends equipment life

• Excellent mechanical stability and adhesion – the grease keeps its consistency in service ensuring long term protection

and reduced consumption as film stays between lubricated surfaces

• Good water resistance – the coating film stays on the surface in the presence of water; even when exposed to the

action of hot and chemically active process water

• Outstanding oxidation and thermal stability – provides reliable performance and extended lubricant life in high

temperature applications
