AIMOL Gearline CLP F
Gear oil offering protection against micro pitting
AIMOL Gearline CLP F is range of mineral gear oils developed for any type of gearbox. The latest technology in base oils and a special additive package provides excellent protection against micro pitting. AIMOL Gearline CLP F provides superior EP properties, a very good anti oxidant and anti rust protection, excellent anti wear properties and has a low tendency to foaming. Furthermore AIMOL Gearline CLP F provides quick moisture separation and optimal filterability.
MICRO PITTING
Micro pitting occurs under elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) and will appear on the
working surfaces of the gear. It is recognized as damaging to gear tooth accuracy, and
in some cases, a primary failure mode.
Micropitting begins as surface contact at high points on gear tooth surfaces, such as
crests of undulations, peaks of cutter scallops, ridges of grinding lay and edges of
grinding scratches where maximum peak-to-valley roughness of tooth surface may be
about two to four mm. It may occur at edges of teeth and boundaries of surface
defects, such as scratches and dents. It may also occur adjacent to damage from other
failure modes such as micropitting or scuffing, and anywhere lubricant film is disrupted.
AIMOL Gearline CLP F is formulated according to the latest technology and the latest
knowledge of preventing from micro pitting.
APPLICATIONS
AIMOL Gearline CLP F can be used in industrial gears when EP properties are needed or whenever US STEEL 224,
DIN 51517 CLP or CINCINNATI MILACRON. It meets the FLENDER specifications.
Typical applications of heavy loaded gearboxes can be found in
Wind turbines
