The Mobil SHC Gear 1500, 3200, and 6800 lubricants are supreme performance heavy-duty gear oils primarily designed for all kinds of enclosed gearing as well as plain and rolling element bearings. They are designed to provide outstanding service in terms of equipment protection, oil life, and problem-free operation enabling increased customer productivity. These scientifically engineered synthetic lubricants are formulated from synthetic base fluids that have exceptional oxidation and thermal properties and excellent low temperature fluidity. The combination of a naturally high viscosity index and a unique additive system enables these products to provide outstanding performance under severe high and low temperature operating conditions. The nature of the synthetic base fluids also contributes to the products’ excellent low temperature performance. They have excellent protection against gear scuffing and resistance to shock loading. The synthetic base stocks have inherently low traction properties that result in low fluid friction in the load zone of non-conforming surfaces such as gears and rolling element bearings. Reduced fluid friction produces lower operating temperatures and improved gear efficiency.
