Castrol Optigear Synthetic X 320 CSynthetic Gear OilDescriptionCastrol Optigear™ Synthetic X 320 C is based on synthetic hydrocarbons and Castrol's Microflux Trans (MFT) PlasticDeformation (PD) additive system and surface improvement additive package.MFT PD helps improve lubricant performance when operating temperature and loads reach a certain level of activationenergy, by enabling the micro-smoothing of surface roughness without increasing wear. The smoothed surface deliversoptimum wear protection and an extremely low coefficient of friction, especially in applications which experience extremepressure, shock loads, vibrations or low speeds. MFT PD helps to protect against scuffing and shock loading, whilemaintaining a high load carrying capacity, and can help prevent the progression of micro-pitting in pre-damaged gears.ApplicationOptigear™ Synthetic X may be used in spur gear, bevel gear or planetary gear units and in heavy loaded gear units, e.g.wind turbine main gears. It is also suitable for the lubrication of oil-lubricated rolling bearings. Depending on the specificapplication, Optigear™ Synthetic X may be used in an operating temperature range from -35°C/-31°F to +95°C/+203°F(refer to a Castrol technician for more information, if necessary).Optigear™ Synthetic X is a CLP-HC gear oil (according to DIN 51502) and exceeds the minimum requirementsaccording to DIN 51517 (2018), part 3, CLP gear oils formulated with detergents.

AdvantagesOptigear Synthetic X has the following advantages when compared to product in a similar class:High load carrying capacity.Superior micro pitting protection.Excellent friction reduction.Good filtration properties.Excellent bearing lubrication suitability
