Product description
Mobil SHC Aware™ Gear Series are a range of high performance, anti-wear gear oils for use in marine applications and meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP) guidelines for "environmentally acceptable lubricants". They provide excellent wear protection for gears and bearings and safeguard equipment from rust and corrosion.
They also possess outstanding oxidation properties, which help to extend oil life, and offer a wide operating temperature range and excellent low temperature start-up. Mobil SHC Aware Gear Series demonstrate excellent air release properties versus typical mineral gear oils, resulting in less air entrainment and protection from cavitation. Furthermore, their excellent seal compatibility helps to minimize leaks.
Applications
Marine controllable pitch propeller and thruster applications
Suitable for enclosed gear drives including steel-on-steel spur, helical and bevel designs
