Gear Lubrication
Stop humidity and rust corrosion from causing near-instantaneous damage to your gears. GearLogicSM applies a thin, non-hardening preservative barrier, allowing you to shield your gearboxes from moisture — and store them safely until they’re returned to service.
Unlike other preservatives, GearLogicSM doesn’t harden or get tacky during application. That means there’s no need to flush your drive when you remove it from storage. Simply replace the hygroscopic breather element and Plexiglas inspection cover, fill the unit with the proper lubricant, and go.
*Applies to mineral oil only. Applications using synthetic oil need to be flushed prior to filling.
TERMS AND CONDITIONSFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE GEARLOGIC PROCESS
Yes. Any brand gear drive currently being stored at your facility is likely a candidate for GearLogic.
Yes, but the gearbox needs to be flushed before being filled with synthetic oil. Mineral oils do not require flushing before filling, since GearLogic dissolves in mineral oil after the gearbox has been filled.
No. Due to the specialized equipment required for GearLogic, gearbox must be shipped to the nearest Philadelphia Gear® Regional Service Center for treatment.
No. Gearboxes can be sent directly from your site to Philadelphia Gear for GearLogic treatment.
The GearLogic long-term preservation warranty can be applied to virtually any size industrial gearbox.
No. The user-friendly GearLogic design requires no shaft rotation. The only “maintenance” necessary is periodically checking the desiccant bags and hygroscopic breather to see if they need replacement.
Costs vary depending on gearbox type and other factors. Rest assured, GearLogic is intended to be a value-added service that can provide our customers with increased peace of mind for a relatively minimal cost.
GearLogic prevents near-instantaneous damage to gears by applying a non-hardening preservative barrier, protecting gearboxes from humidity and rust corrosion during storage, and its unique non-hardening feature simplifies the reintegration process without the need for flushing.
Gear lubricant provides crucial benefits for machinery by reducing friction and wear between gears, leading to increased efficiency and prolonged equipment life. It helps dissipate heat generated during operation, preventing overheating and maintaining optimal operating temperatures. Additionally, gear lubricants act as a protective barrier, preventing corrosion and minimizing the impact of contaminants, ensuring smooth and reliable gear performance.
