Exxon Arox EP Series lubricants are premium quality products primarily intended for the lubrication of pneumatically operated rock drills in underground and surface mining operations. They are formulated from high quality base stocks and additives, which provide excellent chemical stability and good protection against wear and corrosion. They offer an optimum balance of adhesiveness, yet are emulsifiable enough to pick up moisture carried in the air stream reducing the negative effects of water on wear and corrosion. Even in the presence of water, the Arox EP Series oils have good preferential metal-wetting properties that maintain continuous oil films. These properties in combination with high EP characteristics help provide excellent lubrication resulting in long equipment life.

The Exxon Arox EP Series oils provide an optimum performance balance, which assures long equipment life and minimal maintenance, costs. Their excellent wear protection characteristics and ability to provide adequate lubrication in the presence of water not only reduces wear but also protects against rust and corrosion. Their good chemical stability prevents sludge and deposit formation reducing the need for frequent maintenance. Arox EP Series oils offer the following benefits:

• Effective lubrication in the presence of moisture
• Reduced sludge and deposit formation in pneumatic tools
• Excellent anti-wear characteristics and corrosion protection

Exxon Arox EP Series oils are recommended for use in all pneumatically operated rock drills in both underground and surface mining as well as in contractor and other industrial applications. They are suitable for percussive and rotary type tools. The five viscosity grades allow selection for year-round use where seasonal ambient temperature variations are extreme.

• Pneumatically operated rock drills in underground and surface mining operations
• Pneumatically operated drills and jack hammers in highway construction and building operations
• Rock drills in quarry operations
• Percussion and rotary air-operated tools in industrial applications
