SEW-Eurodrive GearOil is now available as an option with its heavy industry gear units. This synthetic lubricant, formulated and tested by SEW-Eurodrive engineers specifically for SEW-Eurodrive gear geometries and thermal loads, is now offered as part of the factory build and service ecosystem for products such as the X.e and MC-series gear units.
