TotalEnergies Carter EP 320

The high-performance mineral oil TotalEnergies Carter EP 320 is specially formulated with extreme pressure (EP) additives for the lubrication and protection of enclosed industrial gears, reducers, and bearings operating under high loads, impacts, and heavy-duty conditions.

TotalEnergies Carter EP 320

Technical characteristics

• Type: Mineral oil for industrial gears with Extreme Pressure (EP) additives.

• Viscosity grade: ISO VG 320.

• Extreme pressure (EP) and micropitting protection: Excellent load-carrying capacity that minimizes wear on gear teeth and bearings subjected to severe mechanical demands.

• Oxidation resistance and thermal stability: Resists temperature degradation, prolonging fluid life and reducing sludge and varnish formation.

• Anti-corrosion protection: Provides outstanding protection against rust and corrosion in the presence of moisture.

• Demulsibility and anti-foaming: Rapid water separation and excellent foam control, ensuring the continuity of the lubricating film.

• Elastomer compatibility: Neutral with seals and retainers to prevent leaks in gearboxes.
