Bearing greases complete lubricant range
Six new high-performance bearing greases have been added to the Molykote lineup, making it one of the most complete ranges of lubrication products in the industry.
A grease formulated for metal-metal combinations involving slow to fast movements and medium to high loadings, Molykote Multilub is for lubrication and reduction of wear on cranes, fork lift trucks and lifting apparatus.
In addition to good corrosion resistance, it also provides water washout resistance, making it suitable for use even in the presence of moisture and spray.
Because of its low oil evaporation, Molykote Multilub provides long-term lubrication throughout a service range of -25 to +120C.
It provides penetration and rust-loosening properties.
Solvent and corrosion inhibitors penetrate and break down corrosion on badly rusted machine parts, allowing a combination of mineral oil and solid lubricants to provide effective lubrication.
Multigliss dispersion's spray-can application allows improved penetration into corrosion buildup.
Omnigliss spray is a penetrating agent incorporating corrosion protection, water-repellence and lubricant properties.
Formulated for improved penetration and water repellence, Omnigliss is suitable for frictional contacts running at low to medium speeds which are not equipped with grease nipples or oiling holes.
Applications include joints, levers, chains and other components of transport and conveyor equipment, textile machinery, automatic filling units and all types of packaging equipment.
The spray provides high pressure resistance and temporary corrosion protection.
