QUINPLEX® forms a barrier
that resists water spray off. Adheres itself to the applied surface
which allows the grease to resist “pound
out” better.
The use of QUINPLEX® enhances the “coupling”
of the oil with the thickener and it improves the overall stability
of the grease & forms a barrier against
corrosion.
What is QUINPLEX®?
- Lubrication Engineers’ exclusive additive that enhances lubricant performance
What does QUINPLEX®
do?
- Improves water resistance
- Improves tackiness
- Improves cohesion (enhances the ‘coupling’ of the
oil with the grease thickener)
- Improves mechanical stability
- Forms a barrier against rust & corrosion
How does QUINPLEX®
perform?
It has been repeatedly demonstrated that lubricants containing QUINPLEX
have decisively out-performed competitive products:
- STABILIZES VISCOSITY: It will increase the
viscosity index of fluid products & grease base oils (such
as Lubrication Engineers 4010, 4030, 4090). This helps stabilize the viscosity against
the influence of temperature changes.
- NO DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS: Due to the chemical
composition of QUINPLEX® it will not
interfere with other chemically active components of lubricants.
- HIGHER LOAD CARRYING ABILITY: Research in the
UK has shown that in a journal bearing test rig, lubricants with
QUINPLEX® carried more load than lubricants
of equal viscosity but without QUINPLEX®.
Research also indicated the load carrying capacity is substantially
greater than existing theory predicts.
- WATER SPRAY OFF TEST RESULTS: Lubrication Engineers 3752 ALMAGARD
will typically have less than 10% water spray off loss in the
ASTM-4049 test. This compares to 60-95% spray-off loss measured
on competitive ‘high performance’ NLGI No.2 multi-purpose
lithium products.
