The Rykon formula from Chevron is a calcium sulfonate complex-based grease designed for heavy-duty and extreme pressure applications.
Rykon provides an alternative option to lithium-based thickeners which have become widely expensive due to rising global demand, according to the company.
Rykon is designed to help increase equipment longevity, extend lubrication intervals, provide thermal stability, water protection, and reduce the total cost of equipment ownership, according to the company.
Rykon also meets the demands of high pressure and shock loads, providing wear protection under heavy loads and in high extreme temperatures.
