Description

LubeMax Marine SAE 30

Epoxy Oilserv  is the distributor and supplier of Lubemax lubricants in Nigeria.  LubeMax Marine SAE 30, a high-quality multifunctional diesel engine lubricant specially designed for severe-service main propulsion and auxiliary marine trunk-piston engines operating on distillate, hybrid, and bio-fuels with sulphur content of up to 1%. The product is also designed for selected non-engine marine applications typically found on board vessels.

PRODUCT APPLICATION

Main Propulsion and Auxiliary Marine Diesel Engines

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 is suitable for highly rated, medium-speed main propulsion and auxiliary trunk-piston stationary and marine diesel engines.

High-Speed Marine Engines

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 can also perform satisfactorily in smaller high-speed engines typically used in fishing fleets operating under arduous conditions and with small sump sizes.

Marine Equipment Applications

The product is suitable for turbochargers, oil-filled stern tubes, variable-pitch propellers, deck machinery, and other marine applications requiring SAE 30 viscosity oils.

PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Extended Oil Life

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 offers excellent resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation, helping to provide longer oil life, especially in high-stress engines operating under severe conditions.

Engine Protection

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 helps extend engine life by reducing deposit formation in the piston ring belt and cylinder liners, helping to reduce the risk of ring sticking and breakage.

Its formulation is also designed to minimise lacquer formation, helping improve control of oil consumption and reduce operating costs.

System Efficiency

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 is designed to provide greater tolerance to engine overload and poor combustion conditions. It also offers an added safety margin for highly loaded bearings in the event of water contamination, supported by improved water tolerance and separation in separators.

Versatile Marine Applications

LubeMax Marine SAE 30 is approved for use in selected non-engine applications, including gearboxes, clutches, and stern tubes. This versatility can help smaller operators reduce lubricant inventory by minimising the need to keep multiple specialist lubricants on board.
