Meropa WM
High performance industrial gear lubricant
Meropa WM is a high performance industrial gear lubricant. It is formulated with high quality mineral base oils and an advanced sulphur-phosphorus Extreme Pressure additive system, designed to minimise wear in enclosed gears, and other equipment under heavy loads and shock loadings.
- Meropa WM is Chevron’s primary recommendation for the lubrication of industrial gear systems, where Flender approval is required
- Meropa WM lubricants are recommended for the lubrication of a wide variety of industrial and mobile equipment. Typical applications include enclosed gear systems, chain drives, sprockets, plain and anti-friction bearings, slide guides, and flexible couplings
- Meropa WM lubricants are particularly recommended for enclosed gear drives and speed reducers, ranging from fractional kilowatt gear motors to large, high power units on metal rolling mills, cement mills, and mine hoists
- Meropa WM lubricants are suitable for the lubrication of industrial hypoid-type gears and are also recommended for use in transmission gear case and worm drive axles on automotive, construction and mining equipment and plastic extruders gearboxes
- Meropa WM lubricants are suitable for bath, splash and circulation application
- The lighter Meropa WM grades are recommended for mist systems used in a wide variety of fields such as steel, aluminium, chemical and paper lubrication, and machine tools and material handling equipment industries, where equipment such as Norgren and Alemite is employed
- Another specific application of Meropa WM is marine gearing, such as main propulsion, centrifuges and deck machinery including winches, windlasses, cranes, turning gears, pumps, skip lines, elevators and rudder carriers
- Meropa WM 320 is used in wind turbine applications
- High-level micro-pitting protection optimises equipment uptime
- Advanced sulphur-phosphorus Extreme Pressure additive system minimises component wear
- Oxidation and thermal protection increase lubricant service life, reducing downtime
- High performance rust and corrosion protection increases equipment life
- Superior demulsibility and rapid water separation ensures protection in circulation systems where water contamination may be present
- Non corrosive to materials such as steel, copper, bronze, babbitt or cadmium-nickel
- Effective foam suppression optimises lubrication performance
