FAQs

What types of chains is this lubricant suitable for?

It is suitable for all types of drive and conveyor chains.

What is the operating temperature range for this product?

How does this lubricant protect against water?

It offers good resistance to water wash-off, meaning it stays on the chain even when exposed to water.

Can this lubricant be used in food processing environments?

Information regarding food-grade suitability is not provided; therefore, it is not recommended for food-grade applications.

How often should I reapply the lubricant?

Reapplication frequency depends on the operating conditions, load, and environment. Regular inspection and adherence to manufacturer recommendations are advised.

What are the benefits of its penetration capability?

Excellent penetration ensures the lubricant reaches deep into the chain links and pins, providing comprehensive lubrication and wear protection.

What is the volume of the container?

The product is supplied in a 5-litre container.

Troubleshooting

Chain still squeaking after application

Ensure the chain was thoroughly cleaned before application and that the lubricant was applied directly to the pins and rollers. Reapply, ensuring better penetration.

Excessive dripping or sling-off

Reduce the amount of lubricant applied per application. Ensure lubricant is applied sparingly and allowed to penetrate.

Corrosion observed on chain components

Verify that the operating environment does not exceed the product's temperature limits and that water contamination is minimal. Ensure consistent reapplication according to usage.

Lubricant appears too thick or too thin

Check the ambient temperature. The product's viscosity can be affected by extreme temperatures outside its specified range. Ensure storage is within recommended temperatures.
