The extreme pressure additive system in\u00a0Alpha SP 460\u00a0not only provides high load carrying capacity, but was designed to provide microscopic wear protection. Microscopic wear protection, also known as micropitting protection, is critical in preventing destructive wear at the micro level therefore extending gear life and meeting the evolving demands of smaller and higher output gear boxes. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Typical Characteristics<\/h3>\n<div>\n<table>\n<colgroup>\n<col span=\"1\">\n<col span=\"2\">\n<col span=\"2\"><\/colgroup>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td>Product specifications :<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Castrol Alpha SP 460<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>AGMA No.<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>7EP<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ISO Viscosity Grade<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u2013<\/td>\n<td>460<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Density @ 15\u00b0C \/<br \/> 59\u00b0F in kg\/m\u00b3<\/td>\n<td>ISO 12185 \/<br \/> ASTM<br \/> D4052<\/td>\n<td>900<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kinematic Viscosity<br \/> @ 40\u00b0C \/ 104\u00b0F in mm\u00b2\/s<\/td>\n<td>ISO 3104 \/<br \/> ASTM D445<\/td>\n<td>460<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kinematic Viscosity<br \/> @ 100\u00b0C \/ 212\u00b0F in mm\u00b2\/s<\/td>\n<td>ISO 3104 \/<br \/> ASTM D445<\/td>\n<td>30.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Viscosity Index<\/td>\n<td>ISO 2909 \/<br \/> ASTM\u00a0D2270<\/td>\n<td>>95<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pour Point in \u00b0C\/\u00a0\u00b0F<\/td>\n<td>ISO 3016 \/<br \/> ASTM D97<\/td>\n<td>-9\/16<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Flash Point \u2013 open<br \/> cup method in \u00b0C\/\u00a0\u00b0F<\/td>\n<td>ISO 2592 \/<br \/> ASTM D92<\/td>\n<td>225\/<br \/> 438<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Foam Sequence I \u2013<br \/> tendency \/ stability in ml\/ ml<\/td>\n<td>ISO 6247 \/<br \/> ASTM D892<\/td>\n<td>10\/0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Copper corrosion (3 hrs@100\u00b0C\/212\u00b0F) hrs @ 100\u00b0C\/212\u00b0F)\u00a0Rating<\/td>\n<td>ISO 2160 \/<br \/> ASTM D130<\/td>\n<td>1b<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rust test \u2013 synthetic<br \/> seawater (24 hrs) Rating<\/td>\n<td>ISO 7120 \/<br \/> ASTM<br \/> D665B<\/td>\n<td>Pass<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Timken OK Load<br \/> test in\u00a0kg\/lb<\/td>\n<td>ASTM<br \/> D2782<\/td>\n<td>43\/95<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>FZG Gear Scuffing<br \/> test \u2013 A\/8.3\/90\u00a0Failure Load Stage<\/td>\n<td>ISO 14635-1<\/td>\n<td>>12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>FZG Micropitting test\u00a0@ 90\u00b0C\/194\u00b0F\u00a0Failure Load Stage<br \/> \/ Micropitting\u00a0Rating<\/td>\n<td>FVA 54-7<\/td>\n<td>>10\/High<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"lwc-explore-more\">Explore more: <a href=\"https:\/\/bylube.com\/it\/castrol-alpha\/\">Castrol Alpha<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CASTROL ALPHA SP 460 previous Energol GR XP 460 Gear oils DIN CLP 460 Application CASTROL ALPHA SP 460 The Alpha SP 460 is recommended for the lubrication of industrial gear boxes using forced circulation or splash and oil bath lubrication.
