Viscosity and temperature

ASTM D341 (Walther) fitted to the published KV40 and KV100. It is an interpolation between those two points, and it is not meaningful below the pour point. Move the control to read a temperature.

Classification

Sulfur, EP additives and yellow metal

Extreme-pressure gear oils use sulfur compounds so steel teeth do not weld under shock. That same sulfur can tarnish or pit copper, brass and bronze: a bronze worm wheel, a brass cage, a cooler tube. ASTM D130 sits a polished copper strip in the oil and scores the colour. 1A and 1B are the ratings to keep when yellow metal shares the oil. The strip below is that test at room temperature.

Questions

Is Mobil Mobil SHC 624 an ISO VG 32 oil?

Yes. The catalogue lists it as ISO VG 32, which is a kinematic viscosity of 32 cSt at 40 °C, plus or minus 10 percent (28.8 to 35.2 cSt). Confirm the current data sheet before you fill a machine.

What is a Mobil Mobil SHC 624 equivalent?

No other brand in this catalogue clears the equivalents bar for this oil yet (same application, same grade, compatible base oil, and a score of 60 or more). That is not proof that nothing else works. Check the machine manual.

Can Mobil Mobil SHC 624 be mixed with another oil?

Mixing two oils that share a base family is sometimes done and sometimes a mistake. Do not mix this oil with a PAG. For any other mix, follow the maker's change-over guidance and the machine manual.
