KLÜBEROIL GEM 1-68 N 20 LTR
KLÜBEROIL GEM 1-68 N is a gear and multipurpose oil designed for maximum protection of your gear and bearings. Infused with KlüberComp Lube Technology, it offers excellent wear, scuffing, micropitting, oxidation and ageing resistance, so your parts last longer — and more reliably.
Description
KLÜBEROIL GEM 1-68 N – 20 LTR (High-Performance Gear & Circulating Oil)
Product Overview
KLÜBEROIL GEM 1-68 N is a high-performance mineral-based gear and circulating oil formulated for marine, offshore and industrial machinery operating under continuous load. As part of the GEM 1 N series, this ISO VG 68 lubricant offers excellent wear protection, strong load-carrying capability, high oxidation stability and reliable corrosion resistance — providing long-term protection for gear units and lubrication systems.
With a high viscosity index and good thermal stability, KLÜBEROIL GEM 1-68 N ensures consistent lubrication performance even at elevated temperatures. Its advanced additive technology makes it ideal for gearboxes, circulating systems, bearings and auxiliary machinery exposed to demanding operating conditions.
Delivered in a 20 LTR container, this size is ideal for service teams, onboard machinery topping-up, smaller gear units and maintenance operations.
