Description:

Petro-Canada’s VULTREX Line of grease-based open gear lubricants (OGL) and enclosed gear fluids (EGF) are advanced “Solution Provider” products containing synthetic fluids to provide excellent protection for handling the harshest operating conditions that can be encountered – from severe winter cold to extreme summer heat and from very wet to dusty environments.

Vultrex OGL’s ability to extend shovel component life (derived from actual operating data) may provide customers with reduced operating costs and savings. Vultrex OGL Synthetic 2200 outperforms leading competitive products by meeting the strict P&H 520 standard.

Vultrex greases are designed to lubricate large, heavy duty open and enclosed gear drives, as well as bushings and bearings found on mining and offhighway machinery. Vultrex greases are formulated with aluminum complex soaps, taking advantage of their flow and shear properties to protect and extend equipment life. Vultrex OGLs meet the P&H, Bucyrus International (including Marion), Terex O&K, and Komatsu (including Demag) requirements for gear lubricants and are used in the following industries: Mining, Forestry, Pulp and Paper, Construction and General Manufacturing.

All VULTREX lubricants are formulated for use in either automated spray systems or by direct application onto gear teeth, slides or other lubricated surfaces. Major applications for VULTREX include:

• Mining and construction shovels

• Draglines

• Ball mill and grinding mill gears

• Kiln drives

• Drills

• Wire ropes

• Large bearings turning at low speeds

• Slides, dipper sticks and racks

• Bushings

• Propel systems

VULTREX OGL SYNTHETIC 2200 is a solvent-free, synthetic open gear lubricant designed to provide excellent open gear lubrication performance. VULTREX OGL Synthetic 2200 provides excellent wash-off resistance from the shovel stick under all weather conditions and has a lower temperature limit of -30°C/-22°F. VULTREX OGL Synthetic 2200 meets the P&H 520 and P&H 464 specifications, and the Bucyrus International SD4713 specification.

VULTREX OGL SYNTHETIC ALL SEASON 680 is a solvent-free synthetic open gear lubricant suitable for year round use in many climates, with a minimum operating temperature of -40 °C. VULTREX OGL Synthetic All Season 680 meets the P & H 464 open gear lubricant specification, and the Bucyrus International SD4713 open gear lubricant specification.

VULTREX OGL SYNTHETIC ARCTIC is a solvent-free synthetic open gear lubricant. It is intended for use at the very low temperatures encountered in sub-arctic locations during the winter season. It has a proven track record of performance under such conditions, and is recommended for use in these low temperature applications. VULTREX OGL Synthetic Arctic meets the P & H 464 open gear lubricant specification, and the Bucyrus International SD4713 open gear lubricant specification.

VULTREX OGL HEAVY 3600 (contains synthetic lubricants) is a solvent-free open gear lubricant with a higher viscosity and thicker consistency than other VULTREX OGL lubricants. It is suited for the most demanding open gear lubrication requirements and high temperature conditions where low temperature pumpability is not a requirement. VULTREX OGL Heavy 3600 meets the P&H 464 specification, and the Bucyrus International SD4713 specification, including the special requirements for electric mining shovel hoist gears. VULTREX OGL Heavy 3600 is not intended for the lubrication of bushings or bearings.

VULTREX OGL HEAVY 6200 (contains synthetic lubricants) is a solvent-free open gear lubricant with a higher viscosity and thicker consistency than other VULTREX OGL lubricants. It is suited for the most demanding open gear lubrication requirements and high temperature conditions where low temperature pumpability is not a requirement. VULTREX OGL Heavy 6200 meets the P&H 464 specification, and the Bucyrus International SD4713 specification, including the special requirements for electric mining shovel hoist gears. VULTREX OGL Heavy 6200 is not intended for the lubrication of bushings or bearings.

VULTREX EGF-1000 (contains synthetic lubricants) is specifically formulated for heavily loaded enclosed gears on draglines, shovels and excavators. It provides exceptional film strength and excellent anti-wear protection. It is intended for gears where the manufacturer specifies viscosities in excess of 1000 cSt or where a semi-fluid grease is used.

VULTREX EGF-1000 has been used successfully as a lubricant in the enclosed gears of electric mining shovels, underground mining locomotives and many other applications. Due to its exceptional fluidity, film strength and wear resistance, VULTREX EGF-1000 has also been applied as ball mill gear lubricant. It also provides excellent results in with worm gears where “yellow” metals are present and sulphur/phosphorus extreme pressure additives cannot be used.
