Dry lubrication prolongs chain life
Kluberplus SK 11-299 is a nonsoiling, nontacky lubricant providing excellent adhesion to chain parts, corrosion protection, water resistance and effective wear protection.
Many applications use chain in one form or another for drive transmission, lifting, controlling or conveying In many applications the last thing you need is a wet lubricant

Wax-based chain lubricant outlasts the rest
Kluberplus SK 11-299 is a nonsoiling, nontacky lifetime lubricant providing excellent adhesion to chain parts, corrosion protection, water resistance and effective wear protection.
Lubricant change cuts energy use by 17.3%
By converting over to the NSF H1 registered Klubersynth UH1 6-220 the brewery meets its food grade compliance policy and oil drain intervals can be extended to at least five years.
Lubricant change cuts energy bill by 20%
After converting over to the NSF H1 registered Klubersynth UH1 6-220 the brewery now meets its food grade compliance policy on the bottling and canning lines.
It has to be purchased, stocked, transported and applied at a certain frequency; it has to be disposed of when used and, what's more, it cannot contaminate the product being manufactured nor attract airborne contaminants that help form an unpleasant, often black, coagulation on chain and sprockets rendering the chain impossible to relubricate anyway.
Due to these drawbacks people generally don't lubricate the chain, and accept the short life and replacement costs (including downtime) as the norm.
This no longer needs to be the case; as a further addition to a range of dry lubrication solutions Kluber Lubrication has developed a wax-based dry lubricant for the initial and lifetime lubrication of chain.
Kluberplus SK 11-299 is a nonsoiling, nontacky lubricant providing excellent adhesion to chain parts, corrosion protection, water resistance and effective wear protection.
Evidence shows extended chain life over 300 % (life test on 0.5in pitch roller chain).
It is particularly suitable for chains exposed to dust, dirt, lint or water and it is now possible to reliably lubricate chains which, due to the operating conditions, could not be lubricated in the past.
As Kluberplus SK 11-299 is a special initial dip lubricant, Kluber provides the dipping process, which means that customers can fit ready-lubricated chains and still do no additional lubrication tasks but extend chain life to save money and downtime.
Chain samples coated with Kluberplus SK11-299 will be on show at Maintec 2004 from 16th to 18th March on stand E7 and at Total 2004 from 29th March to 1st April in Hall 5 stand 5694 at the UK NEC. Request a free brochure from Kluber Lubrication GB ...
