Extreme pressure additives are usually used in applications such as gearboxes, while antiwear additives are used with lighter load applications such as hydraulic and automotive engines. Extreme pressure gear oils perform well over a range of temperatures, speeds and gear sizes to help prevent damage to the gears during starting and stopping of ...
Grease fitting on a bearing A grease nipple on the driver's door of a 1956 VW Beetle. A grease fitting, grease nipple, Zerk fitting, grease zerk, Alemite fitting, or divit is a metal fitting used in mechanical systems to feed lubricants, usually lubricating grease, into a bearing under moderate to high pressure using a grease gun.
Perfluoro(2-methyl-3-pentanone) is a fluorinated ketone with the structural formula CF 3 CF 2 C(=O)CF(CF 3) 2, a fully-fluorinated analog of ethyl isopropyl ketone.It is used as an electronics coolant liquid and fire protection fluid sold commercially by 3M under brand names such as Novec 1230, Novec 649, and FK-5-1-12.
The most common causes are accidents with grease guns, paint sprayers, and pressure washers, but working on diesel and gasoline engine fuel injection systems as well as pinhole leaks in pressurized hydraulic lines can also cause this injury. Additionally, there is at least one known case of deliberate self-injection with a grease gun. [2]
A grease gun (pneumatic) A grease gun is a common workshop and garage tool used for lubrication. The purpose of the grease gun is to apply lubricant through an aperture to a specific point, usually from a grease cartridge to a grease fitting or 'nipple'. The channels behind the grease nipple lead to where the lubrication is needed.
Friction modifiers and extreme pressure additives shall not be used. API Category GL-2 (inactive [ 3 ] ) designates the type of service characteristic of automotive type worm-gear axles operating under such conditions of load, temperature and sliding velocities, that lubricants satisfactory for API GL-1 service will not suffice.
n.o.s. = not otherwise specified meaning a collective entry to which substances, mixtures, solutions or articles may be assigned if a) they are not mentioned by name in 3.2 Dangerous Goods List AND b) they exhibit chemical, physical and/or dangerous properties corresponding to the Class, classification code, packing group and the name and description of the n.o.s. entry [4]
Halocarbons (chlorinated paraffins), for extreme pressure operations; Glycerol mono oleate; Stearic acid, adhering to surfaces via reversible adsorption process under 150 °C, which limits its use to mild contact conditions. Some formulations use colloidal PTFE , but its efficiency is controversial.
