Castrol Optigear Synthetic PD 220 ES, 200L

Castrol Optigear Synthetic PD 220 ES is a premium synthetic gear oil based on PAO, developed using Castrol’s advanced PD (Plastic Deformation) technology. It provides a unique surface-smoothing effect under load, offering outstanding wear protection, minimizing friction, and enhancing the durability and performance of gear systems.

Application:

Designed for use in spur, bevel, and planetary gear units operating under high loads, as well as for oil-lubricated rolling bearings. It supports operation across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +100°C (up to +120°C for short periods).

Advantages and benefits:

• Plastic deformation effect (PD): smooths surface roughness without abrasion, reducing risk of pitting and micropitting.
• High load-carrying capacity: ensures protection under extreme pressure conditions.
• Very low friction coefficient: reduces energy losses and heat generation.
• Excellent filtration properties: does not clog filters, maintaining oil cleanliness.
• Long service life: high resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation.
• Seal compatibility: safe for use with most commonly used elastomer materials.

Classification according to standards:

• DIN 51517 Part 3: CLP
• DIN 51502: CLP-HC
• ISO VG: 220

Approvals and certifications:
Approved by Flender (List T 7300, Rev. 16) for use in gear units.
