Manufacturer's description

Mobilgear OGL 461 is a high-performance advanced technology grease that combines extreme pressure additives with finely dispersed graphite for load carrying. It is designed primarily for lubricating large, slow-to-medium speed, heavily loaded open gears, and is formulated for excellent adhesion and resistance to fling-off under severe operating conditions. It is an NLGI 1.5 grease (worked penetration 305 × 0.1 mm) with a base oil viscosity of 460 mm²/s at 40°C. It belongs to the Mobilgear OGL Series, together with grades 007, 009 and 2800. Typical applications include ring gears on cement kilns and ball mills, and other open gearing in mining, steel, cement, paper and chemical industries. Mobilgear OGL 461 is also suitable for priming newly assembled open gear surfaces before initial turning. Key benefits include superior wear protection (four-ball wear scar 0.6 mm), very good rust and corrosion protection, strong adhesive properties that reduce fling-off and consumption, and a formulation free of lead, nitrite and solvent for reduced environmental impact. No formal OEM approvals or specification codes are listed on the datasheet.

Applications

• Mobilgear OGL 007, 009, 2800 and 461 are designed for the lubrication of large, slow- to medium-speed, heavily loaded gears in heavy-duty applications.
• Mobilgear OGL 007, 009 and 2800 are conveniently applied by spraying onto gear teeth.
• Mobilgear OGL 461 is also suitable for priming the surfaces of newly assembled open gears, to provide lubrication during initial turning.
• The Mobilgear OGL Series is used across a wide range of industrial sectors, including mining (including high-temperature applications such as ring gears on cement kilns and ball mills), steel, cement, paper and chemical applications.

Performance & benefits

• Developed by ExxonMobil research scientists, Mobilgear OGL 007, 009, 2800 and 461 provide excellent protection and performance in large open gearing across a wide variety of industrial applications.
• They were developed to meet the requirements of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and the needs of customers who prefer a soft to semi-fluid grease for heavily loaded, slow- to medium-speed open gearing.
• A critical requirement for products of this type is to separate the heavily loaded gear teeth and avoid surface wear and damage.
• Mobilgear OGL 007, 009, 2800 and 461 are formulated with a specific quality of finely dispersed graphite, shown to significantly increase elastohydrodynamic (EHL) film thickness under the high-load/slow-speed conditions typical of large open gearing.
