Synthetic Fifth Wheel and Open Gear Compound
Extreme Pressure Fifth Wheel
and Open Gear Lubricant
in a Convenient Spray
NLGI #1 (aerosol)
 AMSOIL Synthetic 5th Wheel and Open Gear Compound (GFW) is based on proprietary technology resulting in a lubricant that does not use asphaltic materials, residual compounded oils or diluent solvents as part of the lubricant formulation.* Typical gear compounds are composed of asphaltic and residual oils cut with solvent to ease application and use. Synthetic GFW does not require solvents to assist the product in application and use, even in cold weather.
Wide Operating Temperature Range AMSOIL GFW performs well in cold temperatures and won't drip off at high temperatures, reducing the need for frequent relubrication.
Adhesion to Metal
AMSOIL GFW provides excellent adhesion to metal surfaces in cold and hot temperatures. Tackiness allows it to stay in place in high-speed applications, even when applied to open gears or chains. Spray formulation offers quick and easy application.
Water Washout Resistant
AMSOIL GFW repels water, protects metal parts from rust corrosion and stays in place to protect gears from wear.
Handles Heavy Loads
AMSOIL GFW provides a tough grease film to handle heavy loads and prevent metal parts from contacting.
Performance Features
- Wide operating temperature range
- Excellent adhesion to metal surfaces
- Forms a tacky, tenacious film
- Won’t sling off or drip
- Excellent resistance to water washout
- Protects ferrous surfaces from rust
- Heavy-load-carrying and extreme-pressure performance
- Environmentally preferable to solvent containing formulations
Applications
AMSOIL GFW may be applied to fifth-wheels, open gears, chains, flexible couplings, sliding surfaces of drag lines and shovels, construction equipment, dredging equipment or any application where a heavy-duty water-resistant lubricant is required.
AMSOIL Synthetic Fifth Wheel and Open Gear Compound is fully compatible with other fifth wheel and open gear compounds and may be applied to surfaces previously treated with other fifth wheel and open gear compounds.
AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are formulated to meet or exceed accepted automotive and industry standards. AMSOIL warrants that the use of its lubricants will not cause mechanical damage to mechanically sound equipment when AMSOIL products are used in full compliance with AMSOIL recommendations.
However, the purchaser of these lubricants is responsible for determining if these specifications are adequate and proper for the intended application. The AMSOIL warranty is limited to lubricant performance consistent with indicated specifications. No additional warranty, expressed or implied, can be made.
*Aerosol spray contains a solvent that evaporates quicly leaving a solvent-free film of material on treated surfaces.
