Description
Castrol LubeCon Series KCL is a high-performance synthetic chain lubricant formulated for the high temperature
lubrication requirements found in the Drywall/Gypsum industry. Utilizing an advanced blend of esters and
synthetic fluids, LubeCon Series KCL exhibits extremely low volatility allowing for reduced lubricant consumption
and a reduction in the deposition of residues.
LubeCon Series KCL supports fluid film lubrication on chain pins and trolleys over a broad range of temperatures.
The formulation includes anti-wear additives for enhanced boundary lubrication protection against surge loads and
temperature extremes while also incorporating a package of corrosion and oxidation inhibitors.
Application
LubeCon Series KCL is formulated for lubrication of roller chains and conveyor components benefiting
from high temperature synthetic lubricant.
•
LubeCon Series KCL is designed and most effective for chain operating temperatures between 350°F/175
°C and 575 °F/300 °C.
•
• LubeCon Series KCL is designed for application using automatic lubrication systems.
Advantages
• Extremely low volatility reduces application rate and frequency for reduced overall lubricant consumption.
• Minimal residue formation plus self-clean action minimizes housekeeping.
• Pre-existing gum, varnish and carbonaceous residues are dissolved for easy removal.
• Lower lubricant application rates minimize dripping for reduced process contamination.
Superior fluid film and anti-wear properties result in extended conveyor component life and reduced friction
for potential energy savings.
•
• Low VOCs contribute to a cleaner, safer workplace environment and improved operator acceptance.
