Technical Advantages

Breakthrough Lubricant Technology

GMax 6000 is a synthetic high-performance gear lubricant. It is specially formulated to provide superior wear protection, extended gearing life, and reduced energy consumption in Falk industrial transmissions.

 

G-Max 6000 goes beyond the abilities of other synthetic lubricants where long life and operational efficiency are desired. It is especially recommended for Rexnord gear drives that encounter severe operating conditions, such as high temperatures, water contamination and cold start-up conditions.

 


  • Superior Viscosity Stability
  • Reduced Operating Temperatures
  • Extended Change Interval
  • Eliminates Seasonal Changes and Costly Oil Heaters
  • Unmatched Thermal Stability
  • Low Coefficient of Friction
  • Water Soluble
  • Environmentally Friendly

NOTE: GMax 6000 is not compatible with mineral oil or PAO synthetic lubricants and must not be topped off with either product. In addition, GMax 6000 must not be used to top off systems containing either mineral oil or PAO synthetic lubricants. GMax 6000 may soften some types of industrial paints, and must not be used in gear drives that are painted inside.

G-Max 6000 is compatible with most conventional seal materials but is not compatible with mineral oils or synthetic hydrocarbons like PAO. To obtain optimal performance, equipment should be drained well and flushed with G-Max Flushing Fluid to remove the previous lubricant.

 

Although small spills of G-Max may be effectively rinsed with water, G-Max should not be disposed of in sewers, on the ground, or into any body of water. Disposal must be in compliance with Federal, State/Provincial and local regulations.
