Heavy-Metal-Free Synthetic Oil Provides Extreme Protection

Pyroshield Syn Hvy & XHvy Open Gear Lubricants are heavy-duty synthetic fluids designed to provide outstanding protection for high-load, heavy-shock applications, such as large shrouded open gears used in the mining, mineral processing and cement industries. Pyroshield Syn Open Gear Lubricants are non-asphaltic and environmentally friendly, containing no heavy metals. Each lubricant features a synergistic mix of Almasol®, LE's exclusive wear-reducing additive, and a unique combination of extreme pressure additives.

LE Offers Pyroshield's Advanced Technology as Solution for Large Shrouded Open Gears

Lubrication Engineers developed Pyroshield Syn Hvy and XHvy Open Gear Lubricants to meet the specific requirements for the lubrication of large shrouded open gears, and to address the main problems associated with traditional lubricants for these gears.

Lubrication Engineers operates under an ISO 9001 Certified Quality System.

Proprietary Additive	N/A LE's proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Pyroshield Syn Hvy & XHvy Open Gear Lubricants contain Almasol. Almasol® solid wear-reducing additive is able to withstand extremely heavy loads, chemical attack and temperatures up to 1,900ºF (1,038ºC). It is attracted to metal surfaces, forming a microscopic layer but not building on itself or affecting clearances. Almasol minimizes metal-to-metal contact and the resulting friction, heat and wear.
