Recommended Uses

Meropa® MG gear oils are designed to ensure optimal performance in RENK and Flender/Siemens clutched gear boxes extensively used in marine vessels. The advanced formulation is balanced to provide extreme pressure protection, while providing protection against yellow metal corrosion. The robust chemistry is compatible with multiple types of sealant and paint coatings and helps to minimize the possibility of leaking seals and paint blistering on the inside of the gearbox. Competitive products with over-aggressive chemistries may attack the paint coatings and cause filter plugging.

Performance Benefits

1. Provides Thermal And Oxidative Stability

The thermal and oxidative stability of Meropa MG minimizes deposit formation and can extend bearing and gear life. Good resistance to oil degradation at high temperatures, resulting in extended oil life and long drain intervals.

2. Rust And Corrosion Protection

Meropa MG offers rust and corrosion protection over long service periods.

3. Extended Gear And Bearing Life

Particularly effective in enclosed gear drives operating under extreme load, speed, and temperature conditions.

4. Less Wear

Ensures optimum wear protection with reduced maintenance and increased system uptime.

5. Provides micro-pitting resistance

Delivers reliable micro-pitting and wear protection with reduced maintenance and increased system uptime.

6. Keeps Components Clean

The advanced additive technology helps to prevent varnish and sludge and keeps the components clean. Clean components can contribute to long lubricant and equipment life.

7. Water Separation

Good demulsibility and corrosion protection for troublefree operation in applications where water contamination is unavoidable.
