Description.

Castrol Molub-Alloy TM 6080 grease is a High Performance multi-service lubricants designed to give outstanding performance in a wide variety of applications. It may be used in either journal or antifriction bearings in the most demanding industrial applications under extreme environmental conditions. 

Molub-Alloy 6080 is manufactured from the highest quality petroleum oil and thickened with a unique calcium complex sulphonate unsurpassed for mechanical shear stability. 

Molub-Alloy 6080 grease is compounded with chemical additives for EP characteristics and with select Molub-Alloy lubricating additives for thin-film, high-pressure anti-wear protection. These additives are dispersed evenly throughout the grease and provide superior protection against component wear, resulting in long service life. 

It is also inhibited against high temperature oxidation and corrosion, and blended and compounded to withstand the heavy loads and shock loading commonly found in the steel/primary metals, construction, mining, and forest products industries. 

The lubricating solids work synergistically with chemical anti-wear and extreme pressure (EP) additives to reduce contact temperatures and wear whilst providing the ultimate in extreme pressure and shock load anti-weld protection. 

Application. 

Typical applications for Molub-Alloy 6080 grease is bearings that are under heavy water or aggressive process fluid contamination. 

Advantages.

The load carrying and anti-wear capabilities of Molub-Alloy 6080 exceed conventional complex greases. 
Excellent friction reduction characteristics due to Molub-Alloy solid lubricants – easier start-up, reduced heat, and reduced energy leading to longer bearing life. 
Molub-Alloy 6080 multi-service greases offer excellent oxidation resistance and resist washing out, even under adverse water contamination. This product has been designed to work with aggressive process waters. 
Reduced friction due to the effect of the Molub-Alloy additives is most evident under boundary and mixed-film lubrication conditions. This benefit is most pronounced where frequent start up, slow speeds or high and unexpected heavy loads are encountered. 
Overall savings are derived from the above and result from less labor and downtime, smoother, more efficient operation with longer parts life and extended lubrication cycles.

Update update master PDS - Values to be updated- water wash ot and water spray off values by technology Additional Information
At temperatures above 121ºC/250ºF, regular reapplications of MA6080 must be considered. 
At temperatures near 177ºC/350ºF, weekly reapplications of MA6080are suggested. 
For continuous service near 204ºC/400ºF, reapply MA6080daily or once each shift. 
Molub-Alloy MA6080 greases can be used above 232ºC/450ºF. However, frequent reapplication of grease is necessary to prevent deterioration of the petroleum base oil. Reapply before the grease in the bearing stiffens. 
In order to minimise potential incompatibilities when converting to a new grease, all previous lubricant should be removed as much as possible prior to operation. During initial operation, relubrication intervals should be monitored closely to ensure all previous lubricant is purged.
