GMax 6000
7 July 2015
GMax 6000 is a high-performance synthetic
gear lubricant. It is specially formulated to
provide superior wear protection, extended
gearing life, and reduced energy consumption
in Falk industrial transmissions.
What is GMax 6000?
• GMax is a poly-alkaline glycol (PAG) synthetic
lubricant designed for enclosed gear drives. It has
the highest viscosity index (VI) of any synthetic
industrial lubricant.

Significance of VI
•The VI property relatives to film strength, with a higher value
providing more film strength.
•GMax 6000 provides the very best protection against micropitting compared to mineral or PAO synthetic oil…one of, if not
the, main failure modes for a variety of gears in gear drives.

How can GMax 6000 help reduce energy consumption?
Not only does the film strength prevent micro-pitting, but it will
also reduce energy consumption to run the gear box based on
the reduced friction coefficient as shown below.

Thermal Stability Example
PAGs degrade into volatile components which would flash off from
the system, and low molecular weight materials which would remain
soluble in the body of the fluid (meaning they do not develop into
deposits in the oil). This gives the PAG base fluid exceptional
cleanliness and zero deposits over its system life. This is not the
case with PAOs. (See example below)

GMax 6000 is Water Tolerable
• Water soluble, therefore it
does not separate from
water
• Contains special
corrosion preventative
additives
• Retains appearance
After addition of water (10%)
GMax 6000 Extends Operating Life to
15,000 Hours
• Ability to handle harshest
conditions
• Lower operating
temperatures
• Low coefficient of friction
• Water tolerable
GMax 6000 is not compatible with other
PAO synthetic or mineral oils
GMax 6000 is not compatible with other products, therefore when they are
mixed, deposit will form creating significantly reduced oil cleanliness leading to
undesired product performance

G-Max Factory Fill 10 year Gear Warranty
Peace of Mind
The gearing in Falk drives factory filled with GMax 6000 lubricant shall be
warranted for a period of ten years from date of shipment against tooth
failure due to excessive wear or surface distress. This warranty is limited to
surface hardened gearing only and is fully dependent upon the proper
maintenance and care of the GMax lubricant. This includes but is not limited
to documentation of regular and customary oil sampling to ensure
performance of the lubricant. This warranty does not cover bearings, seals,
through hardened gearing, or other parts of the gear drive.
Note: GMax cannot be used in Falk models AR, ARM, ARJ, AXV, LHX, LBX, Z1S, MR, MRH and other gear drives with painted internal
surfaces. GMax compatibility has not yet been approved for Rexnord or Link-Rex branded reducers.

Need to Breath
Gear drive breathers are a common source
of moisture and particulate contamination.
These two factors cause
- Premature gear drive failure
- Reduced lubricant performance/Life
AirMax Breathers
• “Inhalation cycle” - The media blocks moisture
from entering the drive
• “Exhalation cycle” - The media allows the
moisture to exit the gear drive.
Rugged Performance
• Operating temperature range -40ºF → 200ºF
• Plated steel core prevents media distortion
• Change out schedule recommended every two
years under normal operating conditions
AirMax Features
Pleated media to maximize
surface area and prevents
moisture ingression
Light weight design allows
for easy installation – only
requires hand tightening
Housing material is made
from corrosion resistant
ABS plastic material
Reversible flow
through media allows
moisture to exit
Oil attracted to media – oil
droplets drain back into the
gear drive
Universally Adaptable to Most Gear Drives
One part number adapts to the following sizes
0.375 – 18 NPT
0.500 – 14 NPT
0.750 – 14 NPT
1.000 – 11.5 NPT
1.250 – 11.5 NPT
