Phillips 66® Gear Shield Synthetic is a viscous, adhesive, transparent synthetic based gear lubricant cut back with a volatile, non-chlorinated solvent for ease of application. It is recommended primarily for the lubrication and cushioning of open and semi-enclosed gears found on stationary equipment, such as ball and rod mills, kilns and paper mills. Gear Shield Synthetic is specially formulated to provide high load-carrying capacity to protect heavily loaded gears from scoring and galling. It forms a heavy, tenacious film (after solvent evaporation) that adheres well to metal surfaces and will not harden or flake off at low temperatures. This film has good resistance to water washout and protects the gears against rust and corrosion. Applications: - Open and semi-enclosed gears, such as those found on mining ball and rod mills, cement mills, drying kilns, and papermaking machinery and presses
- Mills used to process minerals such as gold, copper, iron, taconite and Phosphate
- Guides and sliding surfaces with large clearances, where asphaltic-type lubricants are specified
- Cables on draglines, clamshells, shovels, hoists and other cable-operated equipment where cable clamp safety devices are not used
