Castrol Optigear ALR X1
Castrol Optigear ALR X1 is a high performance synthetic gear oil designed for lubrication of robot gear boxes. Based on a combination of additives to provide excellent bearing performance, good load carrying and outstanding thermal stability. This synthetic based gear oil is also designed to give an extremely low sludge forming propensity as well as good elastomer/seal compatibility with minimal interaction. Castrol Optigear ALR X1 has also been coloured yellow in order for Robot manufacturers and End Users to immediately visually detect any leakages.
Strong thermal and oxidative stability allows Castrol Optigear ALR X1 to resist breakdown at elevated operating temperatures, helping the product retain its protective properties under demanding duty cycles.
Castrol Optigear ALR X1 maintains a stable viscosity profile throughout its service life, resisting shear-induced thinning so that critical lubrication clearances remain consistently protected.
Advanced extreme-pressure (EP) additive chemistry delivers strong load-carrying capability, helping to protect mating surfaces against scuffing and micro-pitting under heavy-duty operation.
Castrol Optigear ALR X1 is designed for use in Robot gear box systems where oil lubrication is preferred to grease due to high speeds and ease of change over. ALR X1 is intended too extend oil change intervals versus current commercially available products allowing for lower downtime and increased maintenance intervals for oil lubricated systems. Extended elastomer/seal compatibility testing highlights the low interaction of Castrol Optigear ALR X1 with common seal materials, critical for reduced or no leakage within oil lubricated robots.
Castrol Optigear ALR X1 is manufactured to Castrol’s standard tolerances; users should consult the safety data sheet for handling, storage and disposal guidance.
