Material Notes:
FeaturesChevron Open Gear Greases are formulated with high viscosity mineral oils in a nonsoap-based thickener. These greases appear brownish-black and are extremely tacky.Chevron Open Gear Greases contain special functional fillers such as molybdenum disulfide and graphite, which impart a long-lasting film on working surfaces. They also contain tackiness additives, wetting agents and rust inhibitors to protect metal surfaces. None of the Chevron Open Gear Greases contain chlorinated solvents. Chevron Open Gear Greases have been formulated with a diluent that does not require a cancer warning label.Chevron Open Gear Greases are in every sense true greases and not asphalt-based open gear lubricants. This has a number of advantages. The lubricants can carry a more complete additive system including friction modifiers such as molybdenum disulfide and graphite, which apply a long lasting antiwear film on gear teeth.ApplicationsChevron Open Gear Greases are recommended:for all open gears in industrial, mining, construction, and marine equipmentfor chain and sprocket lubricationas a tenacious fifth wheel lubricantChevron Open Gear Greases can be applied in a variety of methods, including:from a cartridge in a caulking gunfrom an aerosol can for easy application in hard-toreach lubrication pointsthrough a mechanical lubricator over a wide range of operating temperatures
