Reliable Plant Anniversary Edition | www . reliableplant.com 9 Stage 1 PROTECTION Protective layer forms immediately Stage 2 COMPRESSION Protective layer compressed, reducing friction Stage 3 MICRO-SMOOTHING Additives migrate into metal surface THE CASTROL ® OPTIGEAR ® PD GEAR OIL RANGE ACTIVE GEAR PROTECTION WITH MFT-PD TECHNOLOGY Conventional lubricants use sacrificial additives that get used up and need to be replenished. So even though they protect equipment, there's still wear — and breakdowns still happen. Castrol ® Optigear ® PD gear oil range uses MicrofluxTrans Plastic Deformation technology to actively smooth surfaces, without depositing or removing material — lowering pressure, removing friction and creating less wear. Because it's non-sacrificial and needs replacing less frequently, re-lubrication intervals can be longer, production costs are reduced and uptime is increased.
