Chevron Cylinder Oil W 680
Benefits:
- Chevron Cylinder Oils W deliver value through:
- Excellent metal wettability and high film strength for any moisture condition.
- Versatility -- Three viscosity grades available to cover the range of steam pressures and temperatures found in industry.
- Minimized inventory -- Can be used as worm gear lubricants.
- Meets AGMA compounded lubricant specifications.
Areas of Consideration:
Brass/Bronze Worm
Applications:
Compressor manufacturers often recommend cylinder oils for compressor cylinder lubrication. The oiliness of Chevron Cylinder Oils W promotes a metal wetting characteristic that resists the washing action of water and maintains a tenacious oil film on the surface of the compressor cylinder. The low viscosity of Chevron Cylinder Oil W 220 makes it suitable for this application in colder climates. Chevron Cylinder Oil W 460 is recommended for moderate service applications where steam pressures will not exceed 150 psi and temperatures vary between 171°C to 204°C (340°F to 400°F). Chevron Cylinder Oil W 680 is a higher viscosity lubricant recommended for steam pressures up to 300 psi and temperatures from 218°C to 302°C (425°F to 575°F). Chevron Cylinder Oils W are ideal choices for worm gears. Chevron Cylinder Oils W are recommended for use in underground brine pumps at geothermal power generation facilities.
