If Hydrox is used the vessel can operate continuously despite the presence
of large amounts of water in the sterntube.
APPLICATION
1) As a sterntube lubricant where elastomeric lip seals or other modern
sealing systems are fitted.
2) As a lubricating / hydraulic oil for C.P.P. units.
3) As the lubricating oil in certain retractable stabilisers (eg Brown
Bros., Sperry) where water ingress might otherwise cause damage or equipment
failure.
SPECIAL PROPERTIES
1) Forms emulsions with water which may enter the sterntube or hydraulic
system. These emulsions remain fluid and continue to provide a high standard
of lubrication and corrosion protection.
2) Contains the anti-corrosion, anti-oxidant and anti-foam additive packages
required of oil for hydraulic applications.
3) Suitable for use in sterntube systems fitted with circulatory oil feed
systems.
4) Suitable for use where Fluoroelastomers or Nitrile elastomeric materials
are used for sealing.
5) Compatible with most commercially available engine oils used for sterntube
lubrication.
