Starplex Syn HD delivers value through:
Starplex Syn HD is a high performance grease specially formulated for extreme pressure bearing applications operating under high and low temperature conditions and for those difficult applications requiring extended
lubrication intervals.
It is manufactured using selected highly refined high viscosity synthetic base oils, a lithium complex thickener, rust and oxidation inhibitors, and extreme pressure and tackiness additives. It is light tan in color and smooth and buttery in texture.
Starplex Syn HD provides an alternative for high temperature applications. The uniform molecular structure of the synthetic base oils reduces friction between moving parts and boosts lubrication
performance over a wide temperature range.
The high viscosity index of the synthetic base oils allow for exceptional pumpability at subzero (-18°C/0°F) temperatures, allowing bearings lubricated with Starplex Syn HD to operate at temperatures as low as -51°C (-60°F).
Starplex Syn HD is recommended for use in applications with temperatures up to 232°C (450°F), with a dropping point of approximately 280°C (536°F).
Starplex Syn HD is ideal for a wide variety of applications across several industries, including:
• Paper and Forest Products — Starplex Syn HD is recommended for applications such as: sludge press bearings, lime kilns, pumps, woodyard heavy equipment, Doctor oscillator bearings, felt roll bearings, pulp refiner bearings, rope sheaves, and exhaust fan bearings. Starplex Syn HD is particularly well-suited for high temperature applications, such as felt roll bearings and lime kilns operating at temperatures in excess of 204°C (400°F) when combined with frequent re-lubrication.
• Mining — Starplex Syn HD is recommended for — mining operations that involve high pressure applications requiring low temperature pumpability. Applications include: pins and bushings on buckets and loaders, shaker
screens, crushers, and conveyors
— low temperature mining applications
— automatic lubricating systems in onboard
shovels, trucks, and other mobile equipment
• Off-Road Construction — Starplex Syn HD is well suited for lubrication systems that involve pumping grease through long supply lines at low temperatures. It also displays exceptional water washout resistance properties in wet, off-road environments.
• Marine — The rust and corrosion inhibition properties of Starplex Syn HD make it ideal for use in marine equipment exposed to corrosion environments. Examples include deck equipment, offshore drilling equipment, grease lubricated shaft bearings, cranes, and windlass winches.
Starplex® Syn HD is registered by NSF and is acceptable as a lubricant where there is no possibility of food contact (H2) in and around food processing areas. The NSF Nonfood Compounds Registration Program is a continuation of the USDA product approval and listing program, which is based on meeting regulatory requirements of appropriate use, ingredient review and labeling verification.
