FAQ
1. What types of transmission fluid are there?
Gear oils can be divided into several categories tailored to specific applications. These include mineral gear oils, which provide proven lubrication for many standard applications, as well as synthetic gear oils, which are designed for extreme temperatures and heavy loads. There are also special industrial gear oils with high-pressure additives (EP oils) that offer improved wear protection. The appropriate oil should be selected based on the type of gearbox and operating conditions to ensure optimal performance. Without proper lubrication, components can wear out more quickly, leading to a loss of performance and costly repairs. High-quality gear oils ensure efficient power transmission, reduce friction, and extend machine maintenance intervals.
2. Is hydraulic oil the same as transmission oil?
Although both hydraulic oil and gear oil are used for lubrication and power transmission, there are significant differences in their function and composition. Hydraulic oil primarily serves as a medium for transmitting pressure in hydraulic systems, while also providing a certain degree of lubrication for moving parts. Transmission oils, on the other hand, are specifically designed to lubricate gears and transmission components, minimize friction, and reduce wear.
While some hydraulic oils can be used in certain gearboxes, it is essential to follow the manufacturer’s specifications to ensure proper function and maximum service life of the components. BASINOL gear oils are optimally tailored for high-performance gearboxes, heavy-duty applications, and thermally demanding operating conditions. They meet the highest OEM approvals and ensure reliable performance for long-lasting drive systems.
3. What industrial gear oils does BASINOL offer?
BASINOL offers a wide range of industrial gear oils for various loads and operating conditions. These include the zinc-free, mineral oil-based Gear EP products in viscosities ranging from 46 to 680, as well as the fully synthetic, polyalphaolefin-based Gear Syn products in viscosities ranging from 150 to 680. BASINOL positions these products for high-performance gearboxes in industrial machinery and equipment, emphasizing in particular wear protection, corrosion protection, thermal stability, and oxidation resistance.
4. Which BASINOL industrial gear oils are suitable for heavy-duty gearboxes?
BASINOL offers special industrial gear oils for heavy-duty gearboxes. In particular, the fully synthetic Gear Syn 150, Gear Syn 220, Gear Syn 320, Gear Syn 460, and Gear Syn 680 are specifically designed for heavy-duty gearboxes as well as plain and rolling bearings. These products are particularly suitable when high loads, thermal stress, and long operating times are key factors.
5. What is the difference between BASINOL Gear EP and BASINOL Gear Syn?
BASINOL Gear EP refers to zinc-free, mineral oil-based industrial gear oils with high pressure-carrying capacity. Gear Syn, on the other hand, refers to fully synthetic, polyalphaolefin-based industrial gear oils for heavily loaded gearboxes as well as sliding and rolling bearings. Gear Syn is particularly suitable when thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and long service life are key considerations, while Gear EP offers a robust solution for many traditional industrial applications.
6. For which components are BASINOL industrial gear oils suitable?
BASINOL describes its industrial gear oils as solutions for high-performance gearboxes in industrial machinery and equipment. The fully synthetic Gear-Syn products are also specifically designed for use in plain and rolling bearings. BASINOL thus meets key lubrication requirements in industrial drive systems where the goal is to reduce friction, minimize wear, and extend the service life of components.
7. How do BASINOL industrial gear oils complement other industrial lubricants?
BASINOL industrial gear oils round out the product line wherever specialized lubricants are needed in addition to gear lubrication. BASINOL offers hydraulic oils for hydraulic systems, compressor oils for compressed air and compressor applications, and greases for bearings. This is particularly useful when multiple lubrication systems within an industrial plant need to be coordinated.
