Lubricants suitable for your gear unit

We now have more than 87 years of experience in developing and constructing gear units and numerous customer applications, resulting in vast tribological expertise. Based on this and the results of long-term testing, we have developed a special formulation for our first premium gear unit oil – SEW GearOil. It provides the perfect protection for your valuable SEW-EURODRIVE gear unit.

By using high-quality base materials and additives and appropriate logistics, we can ensure you always receive the highest level of quality.

SEW GearOil increases the performance of SEW EURODRIVE gear units – be they standard, servo or industrial. It reduces friction between the gear wheels as it develops an outstanding lubrication film that increases the service life of the lubricant itself as well as that of wear parts such as sealing rings and bearings. The high damage load stage of the SEW GearOil Base mineral lubricant (damage load stage 14) improves protection from fretting on the gearing. At the same time, SEW GearOil increases the efficiency of the gear unit and protects it from corrosion and damaging oil foaming. The self-cleaning properties of the lubricants prevent deposits as they bind water and dirt particles.

SEW GearOil is now available as a CLP mineral gear unit oil and as synthetic lubricant based on CLP PG (poly glykol) in various viscosity classes. Also available now are special lubricants with H1 certification for the food-processing industry. Synthetic SEW lubricants based on CLP HC (polyalphaolefins) are currently in preparation.

Potential uses

You can use SEW GearOil either for the initial fill of your gear unit or in canisters or barrels as a packaging unit for use in service or maintenance work. The premium gear unit oil is available in the following packaging unit sizes and has a shelf life of up to six years:

• Canisters (5 or 20 liters)
• Barrels (205 liters)
• IBC containers (1.000 Liter)
