Exceptional High Temp Stability
Type T38 is made from polyol esters. This unique feature results in no carbon or varnish deposits in high temperature applications; also, it will break down old carbons or varnishes left by other oils or lubricants.
Cleanliness
Type T38 is an ashless lubricant; this helps eliminate the accumulation of solids that create maintenance clean-up problems and downtime. In fact, T38 is often credited with helping to clean chains already dirtied by inferior lubricants.
Low Volatility
T38 maintains a liquid lubricating film at elevated temperatures, thus providing substantially longer lubrication intervals, reduced lubricant consumption, and less smoke.
Energy Efficient
Because T38 is a clean, fluid-film lubricant, it will frequently provide significant reductions in equipment energy consumption.
Better Protection
T38 is formulated to provide excellent protection against wear, rust, oxidation and corrosion, thus extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs.
Opitmum Viscosity
T38 is balanced to provide thorough penetration at lower application temperatures, and optimum lubrication protection in severe applications.
