By Paul Dvorak | June 1, 2009

Gearox PAG is a water soluble polyakylene glycol gear lube that provides excellent protection from micropitting, a high film strength, and system cleanliness.

Gearox PAG is a water soluble polyakylene glycol gear lube that provides excellent protection from micropitting, a high film strength, and system cleanliness.

Hydrotex formulates lubricants for wind turbines to extend drain intervals, provide maximum equipment protection, and maintain system cleanliness. Product recommendations from the Farmers Branch, Texas-based company can consolidate the number of different greases used, thereby reducing inventory and a risk of up-tower cross contamination. A few products for the wind industry include Gearox, an additive package that combines polyalphaolefin base fluid for possibly the best micro pitting protection, foaming resistance, system cleanliness, water resistance, and extended drain intervals. Also, Syn-nth hydraulic fluid, an antiwear, ashless, and synthetic version, provides unsurpassed performance at low and high temperatures as well as extended drain internals. The company has many others application-specific lubricants.
