Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 greases are extreme pressure (EP) multi-service lubricants designed to give outstanding performance in a wide variety of applications. It may be used in either journal or antifriction bearings in the most demanding industrial applications under extreme environmental conditions.

• Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 is manufactured from the highest quality petroleum oil and thickened with a unique calcium complex sulfonate unsurpassed for mechanical shear stability. Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 greases are compounded with chemical additives for EP characteristics and with select Castrol Molub-Alloy lubricating additives for thin-film, high-pressure anti-wear protection. It is also inhibited against high temperature oxidation and corrosion.
• The results of the Castrol Molub-Alloy additives can be compared with a rolling process in the microrange. The surface roughnesses are gradually leveled and smoothed. Through smoothing of the working surfaces, the loads are distributed over increasing areas and the actual load carrying areas are enlarged.
• During the running-in process, the additive package creates optimum smooth contact surfaces. If, because of shock loads or stop-and-go operation, surface roughness peaks redevelop, the additive package is automatically reactivated. Surface roughness is again equalized and lubrication optimized.
• Corrosion and oxidation inhibitors maximize effective rust protection and long grease life. Operating temperature range of -40°C to +140°C.

Features:

• The load carrying and anti-wear capabilities of Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 exceed conventional complex greases.
• Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 multi-service greases offer excellent oxidation resistance and resist washing out, even under adverse water contamination. This product has been designed to work with aggressive process waters.
• Reduced friction due to the effect of the Castrol Molub-Alloy additives is most evident under boundary and mixed-film lubrication conditions. This benefit is most pronounced where frequent start up, slow speeds or high and unexpected heavy loads are encountered.
• Overall savings are derived from the above and result from less labor and downtime, smoother, more efficient operation with longer parts life and extended lubrication cycles.

Application:

• Typical applications for Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 greases are bearings that are under heavy water contamination.

Note:

• Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 greases should not be mixed with greases using a different thickener.
• Relubrication intervals should be increased gradually to ensure complete removal of previous lubricant and to use the additives to their full advantages.
• Castrol Molub-Alloy 6040 greases can be applied with grease guns or automatic dispensing systems.
