How to stop extra wear on gears
Even in the toughest operating conditions you can be sure your differential and transmission gears have full protection against wear by keeping the cases filled with RPM Multi-Service Gear Lubricant. It withstands the extreme pressures that develop in spiral bevel and hypoid gears. A special compound in the lubricant reacts chemically to form a lubricating,
wear-resisting coating on the gear teeth.
RPM Multi-Service Gear Lubricant stands up in high operating temperatures and is oxidation resistant. It contains an anti-foaming agent that helps control expansion and prevent leakage. Ask us about RPM Multi-Service Gear Lubricant.
