Mobil Almo 525

Pneumatic Rock Drill ａnd Tool Lubricants

Mobil Almo 500 Series lubricants are premium quality high performance products primarily intended for the lubrication of pneumatically operated rock drills in underground ａnd surface mining operations. The Mobil Almo Series oils are formulated from high quality base stocks ａnd additives, which provide excellent chemical stability ａnd good protection against wear ａnd corrosion. They offer an optimum balance of adhesiveness, yet are emulsifiable enough to pick up moisture carried in the air stream reducing the negative effects of water on wear ａnd corrosion. They do not form gummy deposits that could cause sluggish valve action. Even in the presence of water, the Mobil Almo 500 Series oils have good preferential metal-wetting properties that maintain continuous oil films. These properties in combination with high EP characteristics help provide excellent lubrication resulting in long equipment life.

Mobil Almo 500 Series possess high viscosity indexes ａnd low pour points to ensure good lubrication at the low temperatures resulting from air expansion ａnd guard against icing stoppages while providing adequate films on drill parts that may operate at high temperatures. Oil fog generation levels are extremely low.

Features ａnd Benefits

The Mobil Almo 500 Series oils provide an optimum performance balance which assures long equipment life ａnd minimal maintenance costs. Their excellent wear protection characteristics ａnd ability to provide adequate lubrication in the presence of water not only reduces wear but protects against rust ａnd corrosion. Their good chemical stability prevents sludge ａnd deposit formation reducing the need for frequent maintenance.

Applications

Mobil Almo 500 Series oils are recommended for use in all pneumatically operated rock drills in both underground ａnd surface mining as well as in contractor ａnd other industrial applications. They are suitable for percussive- ａnd rotary- type tools. The viscosity grades allow selection for year-round use where seasonal ambient temperature variations are extreme.
