Jewell Amber Oil is a semi-fluid grease, which is used primarily
in manually lubricated valve trains calling for semi-fluid grease or
non-pouring oil. It is also suitable for gear drives which are not well sealed
and a conventional gearbox oil would leak out. Jewell Amber Oil should not be
used in applications that require extreme pressure (EP) greases.
Features
· a lithium grease containing an ISO 680 base oil providing excellent penetration and unusual film thickness
· contains both corrosion and oxidation inhibitors for equipment protection and longer service life
·
special tackifier is also included to help
keep the grease on the surfaces to be lubricated
·
pumpable at low temperatures because of its
soft consistency
·
maintains its semi-fluid consistency when
subjected to shearing action
·
heavy base oil for a
thick lubricant film on parts
·
rust and corrosion
protection
·
non-hardening
characteristics
·
tacky consistency that
helps resist water washout
Semi-fluid greases are handled differently
than stiffer grade products. These greases can be hand applied or can easily be
used in centralized systems. Oil pooling at the product surface can be remedied
by simply stirring the separated oil back into the grease.
