About GEAR EP 220/320

GEAR EP 220/320 is a premium quality extreme pressure industrial gear oil specially formulated for heavy-duty enclosed gear systems operating under severe load and shock conditions. It is blended with high-quality base oils and advanced EP additives to provide excellent lubrication, wear protection, thermal stability, and long service life in industrial machinery and gearboxes.

The EP (Extreme Pressure) additives form a strong protective film on metal surfaces, reducing friction, preventing metal-to-metal contact, and protecting gears against scuffing, pitting, and wear under high load operations. GEAR EP 220 and EP 320 are widely used in industries such as cement, steel, mining, textile, paper, construction, and manufacturing plants.

Applications

GEAR EP 220/320 is recommended for:

• Enclosed industrial gearboxes
• Spur, helical, bevel, and planetary gears
• Heavy-duty reduction gear systems
• Conveyor drives and chain drives
• Crushers, mixers, and rolling mills
• Cement and mining equipment
• Hoists, winches, and cranes
• Bearings operating under heavy load conditions
• Splash, circulation, and oil bath lubrication systems
• Industrial machinery requiring ISO VG 220 or ISO VG 320 gear oil

EP 220 is generally suitable for medium-load and moderate-temperature applications, while EP 320 is preferred for heavier loads and higher operating temperatures.
