Open Gear Lubricants
Powered by FUNCTIONAL technology
Open gear lubricants (OGL) operate under extreme load, shock, and abrasive contamination where sustained film strength and surface adhesion are critical to prevent metal-to-metal contact. Shear-stable and high-quality polymer architecture enhances boundary film persistence, impact resilience, and cohesive strength to maintain protective coverage across heavily loaded gear teeth. Adding the correct open gear lubricant package supports durable adhesion and load-bearing performance in harsh mining and heavy equipment environments where conventional systems can rapidly degrade. OGLs can be produced as high viscosity lubricants or semi-fluid greases depending on the specific use.
