Industrial Gear Oils
Load-carrying capacity and oxidation life are the two axes. Sulphurised olefins do the extreme-pressure work; the antioxidant pair sets the drain interval; and the metal deactivator stops dissolved copper from quietly catalysing the oil to death. Wind turbine gear oils are the most demanding and the fastest-growing sub-segment in Europe.
