Product Information
The lubricity agent provides a stable thin film layer to the metal surfaces at mild operating conditions. When severe conditions exist (landing/touchdown), the extreme pressure additive supplies the load carrying needed at the metal-to-metal surfaces to prevent the occurrence of such phenomena as "ladder cracking" and "slip stiction" of the piston component of the landing gear.
Applications:
The better low temperature properties of AeroShell LGF make it particularly suitable in areas of low temperature operations. AeroShell LGF is compatible with AeroShell Fluids 4 and 41.
