    Product Data

    Optigear Synthetic RO
    High performance gear oil

    Description
    Castrol Optigear™ Synthetic RO 150 high-performance synthetic oil, developed especially for gears used in rail traffic
    and mechanical engineering applications (such as in Robots). The properties of Optigear Synthetic RO mean it can be
    used in extreme climate conditions and for long-term use.

    Optigear Synthetic RO is formulated with Castrol's Microflux Trans (MFT) Plastic Deformation (PD) additive. MFT PD
    helps improve performance when operating temperature and loads reach a certain level of activation energy, by enabling
    the micro-smoothing of surface roughness without increasing wear. The smoothed surface delivers optimum wear
    protection and an extremely low coefficient of friction, especially in applications which experience extreme pressure,
    shock loads, vibrations or low speeds. MFT PD helps to protect against scuffing and shock loading, while maintaining a
    high load carrying capacity, and can help prevent the progression of micro-pitting in pre-damaged gears.

    Application
    Optigear Synthetic RO 150 can be used for all types of spur gear teeth, also under difficult load conditions.
    Bevel gear units, including those with a large offset (hypoid) and heavy alternating loads.
    All types of roller bearings, with heavy loads and low and high temperatures. Can be used in a very broad range of
    temperatures (no preheating needed in winter).
    Dip lubrication at high numbers of revolutions, as well as injection and oil mist lubrication.
    Filtering (mechanical) does not result in any additive loss.
    Not for synchronised gears or limited slip differentials due to low friction coefficients.

    Advantages
    High pressure absorption and excellent wear protection¹
    Safe bearing lubrication in high- and low-temperature ranges
    High seizure load-bearing capacity¹
    Above-average application times – even under difficult conditions¹
    Reduction of friction coefficient and operating temperature¹
    Good corrosion protection¹
    Long service life for gears¹
    Exceeds requirements regarding wear protection in line with DIN 51517, part 3
    ¹When compared to conventional gear oils.
