The Benefits of Synthetic Lubricants in Industrial Machinery

Mobil SHC lubricants offer advantages that mineral oils simply cannot match. Under severe operating conditions, such as high temperatures, loads and pressures, frequent starts and stops, wide operating temperature ranges, Mobil SHC lubricants become even more critical to help ensure reliable operations whether for gears, compressors, bearings, or air compressors.

For example, the upper operating limit for Mobil SHC lubricants is significantly higher than the maximum operating temperatures for high-quality mineral oils. And with excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance, deposit formation can be reduced while extending oil drain intervals.

All these attributes of Mobil SHC lubricants result in another potential positive: energy efficiency. Synthetics provide a thicker lubricant film at operating temperature compared to mineral oils, thus reducing the extent of metal-to-metal contact and the associated energy loss.

Finally, since Mobil SHC lubricants have a low traction coefficient, they behave better under high pressure. Mobil SHC lubricants can help enhance operation, equipment availability and potentially improve productivity.
