Gear Oil for Food-Grade HVAC Systems
This synthetic gear oil carries an NSF H1 food-grade rating and meets standard 152879 for use where incidental contact may occur. It is formulated without additives and has a Timken OK load of 40 lb. The product suits HVAC equipment that requires lubricant approved for food-processing environments.
Replaces Non-Food-Grade Lubricants
Switching is justified when maintenance schedules demand a lubricant certified to NSF H1 rather than a general-purpose gear oil. The synthetic base provides a pour point of -43 F and a flash point of 268 F, supporting the stated operating range of 15 F to 180 F without additive depletion.
Simple Top-Up in a 35 lb Pail
The yellow pail allows visual confirmation of fluid level and condition during routine checks. Pour directly into the gear housing using standard filling equipment; no special tools or flushing agents are required. Ensure the system is at ambient temperature before opening to avoid pressure release.

Questions about this item
What size pail does the 5 gal Gear Oil come in and how heavy is it?
The gear oil is supplied in a 35 lb pail that holds 5 gal of fluid.
How do you pour the oil from the pail without spilling, and what step is often missed?
Use a drum pump or funnel on the pail opening; the step often missed is venting the pail so air can enter while oil flows out.
When should the gear oil be replaced based on its temperature limits?
Replace the oil if operating temperatures exceed 180 Degrees F or drop below 15 Degrees F, as the fluid is rated for that range.
