MOBIL GARGOYLE ARCTIC SHC 228

MOBIL GARGOYLE ARCTIC SHC 228 is a fully synthetic, superior-performance lubricant, specifically designed for use in refrigeration compressors and heat pumps. They are formulated from wax-free, synthesised hydrocarbon poly alphaolefin (PAO) fluids, which have outstanding resistance to thermal/oxidative degradation. With their naturally high shear stable viscosity indexes and low-temperature fluidity, they can perform in severe service conditions that are beyond the capabilities of many conventional mineral oils. Their solubility and miscibility with commonly used refrigerants are low, resulting in higher film thickness in the presence of refrigerants under pressure.
