Exxon RONEX Extra Duty is the brand name for a line of super premium quality high base oil viscosity greases designed for a wide range of heavy duty industrial and commercial vehicle applications The high base oil viscosity in addition to the extreme pressure additives gives the greases high load carrying performance. The greases are very tacky and adhere well to metal surfaces, as a result of the tackifier additive included in the formulation. The greases are based on proprietary lithium-complex thickener technology and have very good water resistance and rust and corrosion prevention properties; they also have very good mechanical and oxidation stability.
RONEX Extra Duty greases are available in three grades: RONEX Extra Duty 1, an orange colour NLGI 1 grease; RONEX Extra Duty 2, an orange colour NLGI 2 grease; and RONEX Extra Duty Moly 2, a grey/black NLGI 2 grease containing 3% molybdenum disulphide. RONEX Extra Duty Moly 2 greases are particularly recommended for applications such as vibrating or oscillating movement, which tends to squeeze out the grease. In these cases, the 3% molybdenum disulphide affords an important measure of residual lubrication when the grease has been displaced.
Features
RONEX Extra Duty greases are members of the Exxon brand of lubricating products recognized for their high quality and reliability, as well as performance capabilities. This family of products is manufactured to the strictest quality standards. A key feature for this product family is its reputation for reliability and consistency, and its ability to handle tough applications. RONEX Extra Duty products are super premium greases designed for heavy-duty bearing applications in multiple industrial applications that offer the following quality features:
High base oil viscosity provides outstanding high load performance and equipment protection
Extreme-pressure additives provide enhanced protection under high loads and shock load operating conditions
High dropping point provides an extra margin of bearing safety in severe, high-temperature operations
Tacky, water resistant, inhibited against rust and corrosion to maintain lubrication quality and reliability even in severe service environments
Very good mechanical stability and resistance to shear maintain grease properties even under tough operating conditions
Manufactured under ExxonMobil stringent Product Quality Manangement System (PQMS)TM quality control standards
Applications: With its high, ISO VG 460, base oil viscosity, RONEX Extra Duty is recommended for high load applications at slow-to-moderate speeds, including most bearing applications in the paper, construction, and mining industries, as well as off-highway vehicles. Specific applications:
RONEX Extra Duty has been shown to provide excellent lubrication of felt roll bearings, wet end bearings, and press section bearings
It is also an outstanding multi-purpose grease for general mill applications
RONEX Extra Duty 1 is a completely satisfactory grease for flexible gear-type couplings
RONEX Extra Duty 2 Moly grease is particularly recommended for applications such as bucket pins and fifth wheels, where vibrating or oscillating movement tends to squeeze out the grease
