Product Description Mobil GARD 560 VS
Mobilgard™ 560 VS by ExxonMobil is a high performance, marine diesel engine cylinder oil designed for use in crosshead engines running heavy fuel with sulfur levels from 0.5-4%. This new cylinder lubricant technology provides maximum protection from adhesive and corrosive wear at the higher operating temperatures and pressures found in today’s modern crosshead engines. The outstanding performance of Mobilgard 560 VS has been demonstrated at the highest peak firing pressures and liner temperatures. Mobilgard 560 VS employs additives with greater thermal stability and acid-corrosion protection. It has an optimum viscosity of 20 cSt @ 100ºC and low volatility for optimal lubricant distribution and film retention. Through the use of patented technology, the oil’s higher viscosity is attained without the use of thermally unstable, deposit-producing bright stock. Unique additive technology at the 60 TBN alkalinity level in Mobilgard 560 VS has demonstrated outstanding ring and liner protection and cleanliness under sustained operation with fuel sulphur levels below 1%.
