MANUTEC Industrial HC-EP 220 Safety Data Sheet

• Product Code: AZO

What does 'HC-EP 220' Mean?

HC typically refers to high-performance or high-circulation, while EP refers to Extreme Pressure, identifying this oil as suitable for high-load industrial gear systems. 220 refers to the ISO Viscosity grade (ISO VG 220).

Is this suitable for worm gear drives?

Often yes, but some worm gears require synthetic PAO or compounded oils. Check OEM recommendations.

Can this oil be used in food-production machinery?

No. This is not NSF H1/H3-rated. Use food-safe gear oils where required.

Can it be mixed with synthetic gear oils?

Short term, yes. Long-term, no. Mixing reduces additive performance. For best results, fully drain and refill with the correct oil.

How often should I change the oil in an industrial gearbox?

Intervals depend on load, operating temperature, contamination and OEM recommendations. In harsh environments, oil analysis helps determine ideal drain cycles.

Does this oil help with shock-load protection?

Yes. The EP package is specifically designed to protect gears under sudden or heavy impact loads.

Tanks:

The delivery of a tank can be confusing as each manufacturer offers a slightly different service and lead time. Please refer to our Delivery Information page.  Standard tank deliveries are "kerbside" which means the tank will be delivered to the kerb only and not positioned further. Should you have specific delivery requirements or restrictions, please contact us to discuss.

Tanks Over 2500L – Articulated Lorry – Customer Offload:

These tanks will be delivered on an articulated vehicle (approximately 16.5m long x 2.6m wide x 3m high) which has no offloading on board, it is the customer's responsibility to offload the tank, which may require a telehandler / forklift.  Curtain sided vehicles are also used, so please note that if there are obstacles or hanging branches on the road to the delivery site etc, the driver may refuse to drive the vehicle to the customer's location due to the possibility of damaging the vehicle. Please let us know if there are any obstructions before delivery, so we can arrange alternative transport.

18 Tonne Tail Lift HGV

This vehicle is the size of the largest bin lorries (for comparison) and is approximately 8.2m long x 2.6m wide x 4m high, often curtain sided so please note that if there are hanging branches etc, these vehicles will not attempt to drive down due to the possibility of damaging the vehicle and so it is recommended that a smaller vehicle is requested. Tanks will be lowered to the ground but not positioned as this is a kerbside delivery.  If a smaller vehicle is required, please email us at sales@fueltankshop.co.uk quoting your order number and name.

HIAB Delivery

HIAB delivery is available but must be requested and there will be an additional cost for this service. If a HIAB delivery is required, please email us at sales@fueltankshop.co.uk quoting your order number and name, and we will come back to you with a price for this service.
