Lubricants

Earthkeeper EP is a high performance lubricating grease based on calcium sulfonate thickener and a blend of biodegradable oils. This extreme pressure grease is suitable for a wide range of applications, including equipment under severe load, shock load, and vibrations. Besides offering excellent wear protection, Earthkeeper EP protects bearings from water, including acidic and caustic solutions. Earthkeeper EP continues to protect long after conventional greases have become too waterlogged and soft to be of any value. The rust protection is second to none, greatly extending the life of bearings exposed to brine or other corrosive materials. Earthkeeper EP grease meets the definition of a biobased lubricant as outlined in section 9001 of The Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (FSRIA) of 2002 (Public Law 107-171/ HR 2642) and qualifies for preferred procurement by U.S. Federal Agencies as set forth in FSRIA section 9002. BENEFITS: BIODEGRADABLE – easily passes all tests for biodegradability and is classified as “Readily Biodegradable”. WEAR PROTECTION – suitable for use on highly loaded equipment. WATER RESISTANCE – resists being flushed out of the bearing. RUST RESISTANCE – outstanding protection. APPLICATIONS: Use Earthkeeper EP in all industrial bearings, earthmoving and mining equipment. It is especially useful in ecologically sensitive areas and in marine equipment. Size and Type Container: CS Weight: 54 LBS.

Whitmore’s expertise in lubricating open gear lubrication has been distilled into Earthkeeper OGL, a highly effective lubricant for use on open gears that are found on Draglines, Shovels, Kilns and Ball Mills. Earthkeeper OGL is formulated using a high concentration of solid lubricants in combination with extreme pressure additives. It forms a robust film that protects from scuffing and pitting under the most punishing conditions. Earthkeeper OGL meets the definition of a biobased lubricant as outlined in section 9001 of The Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (FSRIA) of 2002 (Public Law 107-171/ HR 2642) and qualifies for preferred procurement by U.S. Federal Agencies as set forth in FSRIA section 9002.

Wire ropes are a machine component. Like any other machine component, they have moving parts that require lubrication. Bending and stretching of the rope results in friction and a good anti-wear lubricant is called for. Earthkeeper WRL penetrates to the core, ensuring that the rope is lubricated throughout. The oil is treated with additives that enhance anti-wear capabilities and even provide a degree of extreme pressure protection. Wire rope life is extended. Downtime for rope changes is reduced and production is increased. Earthkeeper WRL is ideal for marine environments. Negative consequences from accidental spillage are greatly reduced, as it easily passes all tests for biodegradability and is classified as “Readily Biodegradable”. Earthkeeper WRL meets the definition of a biobased lubricant as outlined in section 9001 of The Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (FSRIA) of 2002 (Public Law 107-171/ HR 2642) and qualifies for preferred procurement by U.S. Federal Agencies as set forth in FSRIA section 9002. Earthkeeper WRL has been certified by the USDA as biobased, and has earned USDA BioPreferred designation. BENEFITS: BIODEGRADABLE – an ethical and safe choice for use in sensitive areas. WEAR PROTECTION – extreme load carrying extends rope life. RUST RESISTANCE – outstanding protection. MULTI-GRADE – reduces viscosity variations with changing temperatures. APPLICATIONS: Use Earthkeeper WRL for all wire ropes, especially those in ecologically sensitive areas and near waterways.Size and Type Container: Drum Weight: 448 LBS.

When it comes to protecting heavily loaded open gears, Whitmore’s Envirolube has been recognized by OEMs and end-users alike as the product that gets the job done. In 2012 Whitmore introduced a further improvement. A special blend of new anti-wear chemistry was added. The resulting product has been named Envirolube Extreme. Nothing has been taken away from the original Envirolube. The synergy created by the Extreme additive system reduces friction and wear to levels that were never thought possible. Friction reduction: 28.1%. Wear reduction: 28.5%. When Envirolube Extreme is used, new gears (and even damaged gears) are smoothed through a combination of chemical polishing and compression caused by high load. This process is often called "Planishing". There is no need for special running-in products Ideally, Envirolube Extreme should be sprayed intermittently onto the gears. This allows for partial evaporation of the solvent, resulting in a dramatic increase in the viscosity of the lubricant on the gears. For large, heavily loaded Ball Mill gears a lubrication frequency of 15 to 20 minutes is normal. BENEFITS: WEAR PROTECTION - extends gear life. SURFACE SMOOTHING – The addition of the "Envirolube Extreme" additive combination multiplies the smoothing effect that has been witnessed for many years by customers who used Envirolube. Smoother surfaces spread the load, thus preventing wear. The need for special running-in compounds is eliminated. RUST PROTECTION - protects against rust and corrosion. ANTIOXIDANT - stabilizes asphaltic base and inhibits oxidation and hardening of the spent lubricant. APPLICATIONS: Envirolube Extreme meets or exceeds the requirements of major OEM’s for open gear lubricants. Use Medium grade on unheated mills in weather conditions between 0°F (-18°C) and 110°F (43°C). Use Heavy grade on heated mills up to 220°F (105°C) or where gears are badly worn. All grades are suitable for use in airless spray systems. Do not use with NBR rubber seals. Viton is recommended.Size and Type Container: Keg Weight: 144 LBS
