Description
Castrol Alpha SP 680 is an extreme pressure gear oil (CLP, ISO VG 680) based upon highly refined mineral oil.
Application
- The Alpha SP range is recommended for the lubrication of industrial gear boxes using forced circulation or splash and oil bath lubrication.
- They may be used for the lubrication of spur and helical gears and in some lightly loaded worm type gear applications. They have very good viscosity characteristics to ensure starting torques are not excessively high in cold operating conditions.
- The additives are compatible with the ferrous and non-ferrous metals used in industrial gear units.
- The Alpha SP range is compatible with the most common types of seal materials.
