Features & Benefits
- Ready-to-Use Product Features
- Features
- The Fastex® Surface Modifier protects against metal-to-metal contact.
- Exceptional shock load protection
- Quick separation from water to resist forming permanent emulsions
- Extremely high-level resistance to oxidation and chemical degradation
- Non-Corrosive to steel and non-ferrous gear set components
- Resists sludge and varnish formation at high temperatures
- The exceptional low friction characteristics contribute to reduced energy consumption.
- Proven performance extends to service and maintenance intervals.
- The Fastex® Surface Modifier Technology
It is a complex package of esters combined with a highly refined and modified hydrocarbon-based fluid, specifically formulated to improve Boundary Lubrication. It both significantly reduces friction and improves the anti-wear characteristics of metal surfaces. This modified surface has a much higher shear strength to protect equipment and improve operating performance. It protects against thermal damage traditionally caused by extreme loading pressures, oil film breakdown or lubricant failure by providing low friction and good anti-wear barrier between metal surfaces.
Applications & Uses
