Emulsifiable sterntube oil formulated to reduce outboard oil leakage
APPLICATION
- As a sterntube lubricant where elastomeric lip seals or other modern sealing systems are fitted and particularly where excessive outboard oil leakage is being experienced.
- Lubrication of the fin shafts of certain retractable stabilisers. Click here to request for further information.
SPECIAL PROPERTIES
- Forms emulsions with water. Both the oil and emulsions are sufficiently fluid to circulate and they both provide a high standard of lubrication and corrosion protection.
- The introduction of HYDROX 21 in most cases gives a considerable reduction in oil leakage in the event of damaged or misaligned sterntube seals. Reductions of 70% and more are normal in these circumstances.
- Suitable for use where Fluoroelastomers or Nitrile elastomeric materials are used for sterntube sealing.
- Compatible with most commercially available engine oils used for sterntube lubrication.
- Fully compatible with HYDROX 550 should a switch of oil be required to combat excessive oil loss.
