| Phillips 66® Open Gear Lube is a viscous, tacky, petroleum resin-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 on mining shovels, draglines and excavation equipment used in underground and surface mines and in rock quarries. It also may be used for the lubrication of some cable-actuated equipment. Open Gear Lube 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 provides good resistance to water washout and protects gears against rust and corrosion. Open Gear Lube is available in three grades for use over a wide range of operating temperatures. Applications: - Open and semi-enclosed gears found on mining shovels, draglines and excavation equipment
- Guides and sliding surfaces with large clearances, where asphaltic-type lubricants are specified
- Cables on draglines, clamshells, hoists and other cable-operated equipment where cable clamp safety devices are not used
