Texas Refinery Corp.'s
890 VARI-PURPOSE
is truly one of the finest gear oils obtainable. Through
extensive research, an advanced base was selected to
provide lasting and superior performance under the
toughest conditions. Can be used where even some of the
more expensive, high-additive gear oils have given
unsatisfactory service. In addition, it is authorized by
the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a H2 lubricant
which has no contact with food. |
Basis Of
The Quality
Formulated with top quality base stocks which are highly refined
to remove any undesirable materials, such as waxes and
varnishes, that could be detrimental to a gear system. This adds
to the protective film strength which is outstanding.
Very
adhesive, meaning it will cling tenaciously to the gears,
providing continuous lubrication, even in the presence of
moisture. The cohesive property is also important . . . the
product will withstand extreme pressure operating conditions.
Provides
Low Non-Channeling Point
Base
stocks that are not as highly refined as those Texas Refinery
Corp. uses can cause problems in colder temperatures. Gear oils
with those base stocks can become so thick in cold weather that
the oil loses its fluidity . . . gears begin to run dry and
metal-to-metal contact occurs. The high quality base stocks used
in 890 VARI-PURPOSE®
assure a low non-channeling point. Operators will not experience
a dry start-up and shifting will be much easier.
Color
Coded
Equipment operators receive several advantages by Texas Refinery
Corp. color-coding 890
VARI-PURPOSE® a bright red. The
chance of a wrong oil being used can be virtually eliminated . .
. a leak can easily be traced . . . and 890's color is a "life"
indicator. When the color changes from a red to a dark color, it
is usually an indication that it is time to change the oil.
Non-Foaming
Many
conventional gear lubricants on the market may begin to foam
during operation, causing extensive problems. First, if foam is
present, the level of the gear oil drops and proper lubrication
is not achieved. Second, foaming will increase the temperature
in the gear box considerably. Special foam inhibitors are
incorporated into this oil to ensure dependable protection. In
most instances, the temperature in a gear box can actually be
lowered with the use of 890
VARI-PURPOSE®.
Contains
Cushioning Additives
Contains a cushioning additive, which is particularly valuable
when using heavily loaded equipment. Highly stable additives,
along with stable base stocks used in this product, make this
the most economical oil to use in heavy duty operations. The
cushioning additive in 890
VARI-PURPOSE® also helps to
eliminate the rumble and howl experienced by equipment.
Water
Resistant
Moisture
contamination in a gear box can be detrimental, causing rust on
the metal surfaces which will produce friction and excessive
wear. Moisture present can be caused by condensation. This
product greatly exceeds most gear oils in water resistance. A
superb additive package does not allow it to emulsify with water
. . . it actually "breaks away" from water, allowing the
moisture to be drained from the gear box as needed - - adding
protection against rust and corrosion! |
