Description
Castrol Tribol™OG 500-0 Spray with TGOA (previously called Castrol Tribol™ 5000 Spray) is a new, sprayable highperformance
open gear grease. It was especially developed for application in cement, mining and other heavy
industries, to assure proper tribo-technical and economical maintenance of open gears.
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 differs from conventional asphaltic type open gear lubricants, as it does not contain solvents nor
solids.
Outstanding extreme pressure (EP) antiwear characteristics are derived from the latest development in the field of
surface improving additives designated TGOA. The TGOA additive package performs better than other EP and antiwear
additives because of its unique action on frictional surfaces.
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is approved by major original equipment manufacturers.
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is manufactured from mineral oil, selected for optimum physical and chemical stability, blended
with special adhesive agents and thickened with aluminum complex soap.
The TGOA additive package is activated by high specific loads and corresponding temperatures causing a chemical
physical reaction. This results in an equalization of surface roughness without creating abrasion. Therefore, surface
roughnesses are reduced without the loss of surface material.
The results of the TGOA additives can be compared with a rolling process in the micro range. The surface
roughnessess are gradually leveled and smoothed.
The load carrying area is increased with increased safety loads on tooth flanks at reduced friction levels.
If, because of shock loads or stop and go operation, surface roughness peaks redevelop, the TGOA additive package is
automatically reactivated. Surface roughness is again equalized and lubrication optimized.
Application
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is a high-performance lubricant for open gears, wire ropes and similar applications.
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 is recommended for the use on slow moving, heavily loaded open gears.
It is also used to lubricate rack-and-pinion gears, wire ropes, slides, cams and other machinery in mills and
mines and other heavy industries.
Temperature range: 20°C up to + 120°C, +140°C intermittent.
Conditions of Use
Castrol Tribol OG 500-0 should not be mixed with greases of a different thickener.
Relubrication intervals should be adjusted according to operating conditions.
