PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease (GPOR1,
GPOR2) combines an over-based calcium-sulfonate
complex thickener and proprietary synthetic polymeric
technology to provide outstanding performance in heavy duty
off-road applications.
AMSOIL developed an exclusive synthetic polymeric
system custom-built to provide performance benefits
specific to off-road equipment. This synthetic technology
helps give AMSOIL Off-Road Grease tenacious cling ability
and maximum pound-out resistance over extended service
intervals, even in wet environments.
EXTREME IMPACT RESISTANCE
Greased components in heavy equipment are subjected to
serious abuse. Virtually all heavy-duty off-road equipment
operates under heavy-load conditions. The extreme impact
common to off-road equipment forces all of that heavy load
(pressure) onto places where the equipment pivots, relying
on the grease to prevent metal-to-metal contact. Lesser quality
greases cannot withstand the load and are pounded
out of the impact area. When
pound-out occurs, heavily loaded
components are
left unlubricated, which
can result in metal-to-metal contact and
extreme amounts of wear.
AMSOIL Off-Road Grease’s exclusive
synthetic polymeric technology provides exceptional
adhesion (ability to cling to components) and cohesion
(ability to cling to itself) properties. It is engineered to resist
pound-out better than other greases in heavily-loaded,
extreme-pressure applications and stay in place longer,
providing outstanding lubrication over extended service
intervals and reducing the detrimental effects of missed
grease points.
5% Moly-Fortified to Meet CAT Requirements
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease
is heavily fortified with moly for maximum wear
protection to meet Caterpillar’s requirement for pin
and bushing applications. Its high Timken OK load and
excellent four-ball wear and four-ball weld test results
are proof of its exceptional load-bearing capacity.
Extended Service Life, Excellent Value
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease provides
serious severe-duty performance over extended service
intervals. It resists pound-out and significantly reduces the
amount of grease ejected during repetitive pounding action.
Field test results show that AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric
Off-Road Grease reduces grease consumption by up to
50 percent. That allows operators to either maintain their
current maintenance schedule and use up to 50 percent
less grease per application, or extend the length of time
between re-greasings by up to 50 percent. Its superior
pound-out resistance combined with extended service
intervals and superior protection result in reduced lubricant,
labor and equipment-replacement costs.
Excellent Water Washout Resistance
Greased components on heavy equipment are frequently
exposed to water. AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road
Grease resists water washout to maintain the external
seal on greased components and help prevent water and
other contaminants from entering wear-prone areas.
Calcium-Sulfonate Complex Thickener
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease features
a calcium-sulfonate complex thickener for enhanced
extreme-pressure performance. Calcium-sulfonate
complex is the ideal thickener for off-road grease. Its
inherent extreme-pressure benefits deliver excellent
impact resistance.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease is ideal for
heavy-duty, heavy-load-bearing applications operating in
the adverse conditions found in agricultural, construction,
landscaping, logging and mining environments.
Applications include power shovels, drag lines, wheel and
track loaders, excavators, bulldozers, skid steers, dump
trucks and other heavy-duty equipment with heavily-loaded
pivot pins, king pins, bucket pins and bushings.
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Off-Road Grease is a perfect
choice for Caterpillar equipment requiring 5 percent moly
for pin and bushing applications. AMSOIL Off-Road
Grease provides superior performance, protection and
longevity in heavy-duty, off-road applications.
