HPC Gears high-performance lubricants help reduce friction and wear, extend lubrication time and reduce maintenance and replacement costs in applications that would defeat conventional oils and greases.
Formulated to withstand the rigors of heavy loads, dirty, dusty or chemically harsh environments, temperature and speed extremes, HPC Gears lubricants are also ideal for normal service lubrication.
Engineering Materials for Gears – The Foundation of Reliable Power Transmission
In every power transmission system — industrial gearboxes, motion control, robotics, automation equipment, medical devices or precision mechanisms — the choice of material for the gears directly determines performance, including strength, wear resistance, noise, efficiency and long-term durability.
Amironic supplies a wide range of high-quality engineering materials, machined gears and lubricant solutions tailored to mechanical loads, operating environments and speed requirements.

HPC High-Performance Lubricants for Gears
Even the best gear material will not achieve optimal performance without proper lubrication. HPC lubricants are engineered for:
• Heavy loads
• Extreme temperatures
• Dusty, wet or chemically aggressive environments
• Long-term, low-maintenance operation
Lubricant Types:
• Pastes (assembly and high-load run-in)
• Greases (general gear and bearing lubrication)
• Silicone compounds (sealing + lubrication)
• High-performance oils (synthetic/PAO)
• Anti-friction dry coatings
• Solid lubricant dispersions
Examples:
RapidPlus, 4500, 4700, 33L, P-40, D-321R, M-55PLUS, MULTILUB, GLY-460.
