Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

Mobilgear EP Series is a family of industrial extreme pressure gear lubricants formulated with high quality mineral oils that help reduce sludge formation and increase oil service life. An additive system delivers high load-carrying ability, protection against wear and corrosion, and good water-handling properties, making the range suitable wherever industrial gear oils are specified — in either splash or circulating systems, and under constant or shock loading. Key benefits include extreme pressure wear protection for gears and bearings, good resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation that extends lubricant life and lowers lubrication costs, resistance to sludge and deposit formation for a cleaner system with less maintenance, and good demulsibility and corrosion protection that eases water separation and protects equipment in humid conditions. The range is suitable for a wide variety of industrial spur, helical, bevel and steel-on-steel worm gearing, including drives for conveyors, agitators, dryers, fans, mixers, presses, pulpers, pumps, screens, extruders and oil well pumps. Mobilgear EP 150 is the ISO VG 150 grade of the series (the series is offered in ISO VG 150, 220, 320 and 460), with a kinematic viscosity of 150 mm²/s at 40°C and 15.2 mm²/s at 100°C. It meets DIN 51517-3:2018-09 and ISO L-CKC (ISO 12925-1:2024) requirements, with a viscosity index of 95, a copper strip corrosion rating of 1B, a pour point of -18°C and a flash point of 250°C.

Applications

• Mobilgear EP gear oils are suitable for a wide range of industrial spur, helical, bevel and steel-on-steel worm gearing, including drives for conveyors, agitators, dryers, fans, mixers, presses, pulpers, pumps, screens, extruders and oil-well pumps.

Performance & benefits

• Extreme-pressure wear protection of gears and bearings: less gear and bearing wear, resulting in less unexpected downtime.
• Good resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation: contributes to extended lubricant life and lower lubrication costs.
• Resistance to sludge and deposit formation: helps keep the system clean and reduces maintenance.
• Good demulsibility and corrosion protection: protection in the presence of humidity and easy water separation.
• Suitable for use in splash or circulation systems: wide range of applications helps simplify inventory.
