Description
Castrol Molub-Alloy CH 22 Multi-purpose chain oil for wire ropes ISO VG 22
Castrol Molub-Alloy™ CH Chain Oils (previously called Castrol Molub-Alloy™ Chain Oil) are multi-purpose chain lubricants designed for use in a variety of plant-wide chain applications. These lubricants are manufactured from a combination of the highest quality components including, antiwear/ extreme pressure additive system with advanced Molub-Alloy lubricating solids. They are also compounded to inhibit oxidation and to protect against rust and corrosion.
Application
Molub-Alloy CH 22 is an excellent lubricant for wire ropes, especially those with a sisal or polypropylene core. It is highly inhibited to protect against rust and corrosion to protect the rope from within.
Molub-Alloy CH 100 is widely used in chain and conveyor applications where non-drip characteristics are desirable to reduce oil loss or “fling-off”. It can also be used on chains where earlier wear conditions and expanded clearances exist. Molub-Alloy 100 resists the washing action of water and detergent wash systems and offers both corrosion and wear protection in wet environments.
Molub-Alloy CH Chain Oils are used on conveyors and chains operating at temperatures up to 90°C/190°F. They can be used intermittently at higher temperatures up to 150°C/300°F but more frequent relubrication may be required.
Molub-Alloy CH Chain Oils can be applied by brush, drip, spray, mist, automatic dispensing equipment, central oiling or circulation systems.
Advantages
- Resists accumulation of contamination and abrasive matter: The semi-dry lubrication attribute of Molub-Alloy CH 22 provides a very light film, giving the appearance of a dry film. This ensures minimum pickup of abrasive dusts, lint, sand, and other particles, thus eliminating formation of abrasive compounds which can increase wear and shorten chain life.
- Excellent EP and anti-wear protection under boundary conditions: The compounded Molub-Alloy solids package provides superior protection during frequent start-up, slow speeds, and when high and/or shock loads are encountered.
- Superior friction reduction: Capable of reducing energy consumption at peak power demand during cold start-up.
- Overall savings: Savings can result from less labour and downtime, smoother, more efficient operation with longer parts life, and extended lubrication cycles.
