Festool Lubricating Grease Optimol Longtime PD 00 500ml

Overview

Festool Optimol Longtime PD 00 Lubricating Grease 500ml Genuine Festool workshop lubricating grease, supplied in a convenient 500ml tube. Optimol Longtime PD 00 is a high-performance, semi-fluid industrial grease developed for long-term lubrication of gears, gearboxes and suitable bearing assemblies. Its NLGI 00 consistency, high load-carrying capacity and advanced wear-protection additives make it suitable for servicing mechanical drive components where this lubricant grade is specified. The Festool Optimol Longtime PD 00 Lubricating Grease (523005) is a specialist service lubricant intended for workshop maintenance and repair applications. Manufactured using the Optimol Longtime PD lubrication technology, this grease provides reliable protection for gears and other heavily loaded mechanical components. Optimol Longtime PD 00 belongs to the Castrol Optimol Longtime PD family of industrial lubricants. Its formulation combines a mineral-oil base with a lithium-based thickener and the proprietary MICROFLUX TRANS® additive system to help reduce friction, protect working surfaces and minimise wear under demanding operating conditions. The NLGI 00 semi-fluid consistency allows the grease to flow and redistribute within suitable enclosed gear mechanisms, providing lubrication between moving components while retaining the characteristics of a grease rather than a conventional liquid gear oil. Festool supplies this lubricant as a workshop service product for applications requiring the specified grease type. It should only be used in machines and assemblies where the manufacturer's service instructions identify Optimol Longtime PD 00 or an explicitly approved equivalent. Key Features • Long-Term Lubrication: Developed for extended lubrication intervals in suitable mechanical assemblies. • NLGI 00 Consistency: Semi-fluid grease that flows and redistributes across gear surfaces. • High Load Capacity: Designed to protect gears and bearings operating under substantial mechanical loads. • MICROFLUX TRANS® Technology: Special additive system designed to improve friction surfaces and reduce wear. • Wear Protection: Helps minimise metal-to-metal contact between lubricated moving components. • Corrosion Protection: Helps protect metal surfaces against rust and fretting corrosion. • Water Resistance: Provides resistance to hot and cold water exposure in suitable applications. • Good Flow Characteristics: Helps prevent grease channelling in compatible high-speed gear systems. • Workshop Packaging: Supplied in a 500ml tube for maintenance and repair use. Applications Optimol Longtime PD 00 is developed for various mechanical lubrication applications, subject to the equipment manufacturer's requirements. • Gearboxes requiring an NLGI 00 semi-fluid grease. • Gear wheels and suitable enclosed gear mechanisms. • Worm gears and other compatible gear transmissions. • Rolling bearings with an appropriate grease reservoir. • Selected mechanical drive assemblies. • Centralised lubrication systems designed for semi-fluid grease. • Power tool servicing where this specific lubricant is prescribed. Compatibility Note: This is a specialist workshop lubricant and should not be treated as a universal grease for all Festool machines. Always consult the correct service documentation to confirm the required lubricant type and application quantity.
