Mobilgear™ SHC XMP Series High performance, synthetic industrial gear oils are designed to provide optimum equipment protection and oil life even under extreme conditions. Mobil’s polyalphaolefin (PAO) technology has been selected for its exceptional oxidation resistance and thermal properties, naturally high viscosity index, excellent low temperature fluidity and absence of undesirable compounds that are often found in mineral oils. The high viscosity index and low traction coefficient of this oil combine to help provide significant reduction in power consumption in many gear drives. Mobilgear SHC XMP Series lubricants contain an advanced and carefully blended proprietary additive system designed to provide excellent protection against conventional wear modes such as scuffing and provide a high level of resistance against micropitting fatigue. In addition, compared to conventional gear oil chemistries, they offer the potential for improved lubrication of gearbox rolling element bearings. Mobilgear SHC XMP Series products offer outstanding rust and corrosion protection in applications where salt water and acidic water protection are required. These products provide outstanding filter life even when moderately wet and have excellent compatibility with ferrous and non-ferrous metals even at elevated temperatures.
Mobilgear SHC XMP lubricants are recommended for enclosed industrial gear drives including steel-on-steel spur, helical, and bevel gears. They are highly recommended in applications that may be subject to micropitting: especially heavily loaded gearboxes with surface-hardened tooth metallurgies. They may also be used in gear applications where extreme low and/or high temperatures are encountered and applications where corrosion may be severe.
Because of their unique mix of properties, including resistance to micropitting wear, and their performance in tough applications and wide temperature range, Mobilgear SHC XMP Series products enjoy a growing reputation among customers and OEMs around the world.
