Mobil SHC™ Aware™ ST Series meet Vessel General Permit (VGP) requirements for environmentally acceptable lubricants* and is engineered to deliver optimal performance in marine stern tube systems, fin stabilisers and controllable pitch propeller (CPP) systems.
Mobil SHC™ Aware™ ST 100 and Mobil SHC™ Aware™ ST 220 may help:
Their lubricating film resists water, providing system protection even under severe operating conditions – which helps to extend component life, minimise unscheduled downtime, and lower potential remediation and cleanup costs caused by spills or leakage.
*Environmentally acceptable lubricants are defined in the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP) as lubricants that are biodegradable, minimally toxic and non-bioaccumulative.Mobil SHC Aware ST Series meets or exceeds the following regulatory requirements: | 100 | 220 |
