Gear Oil
Application :
Generally gearboxes consist of white metals or rolling element bearings, and steel on steel gears, or steel on bronze gears of various configurations, fitted with an enclosure. Speeds & loads vary considerably, dependent upon application and gear type. Lubrication may be integral or fed from the oil system of the driving machine.
Often gearbox lubricant is rationalised with the driving system lubricant, (such as engine oil).
