Apreslube

Veedol Apreslube is a range of high performance, heavy duty industrial gear oils which have been developed for the lubrication of enclosed gears, working under both normal and severe operating conditions.
Formulated using high quality base oils and sulphur-phosphorus based additive technology, Apreslube oils show excellent results in the FZG Gear Load Test which is a benchmark for gear wear protection and load carrying capacity. In addition, special inhibitors provide outstanding protection against rust, corrosion, and foaming.
Features/Benefits
- Excellent thermal stability helps keep gears and bearing surface clean, minimizes deposits.
- High oxidation resistance limits the increase of in-use oil viscosity which can lead to energy loss.
- Outstanding extreme pressure capability ensures minimized wear helping prolonged equipment life.
- Effective inhibitor additives provide additional protection and promote longer oil life.
