Description

CASSIDA SILICONE FLUID is a fully synthetic, high performance multi-purpose fluid, which has been specially formulated to lubricate conveyors, slow rotating machinery, small slow speed bearings and pivot points in the food and beverage processing and packaging industry. It is based on a synthetic fluid carefully chosen for its ability to meet the stringent requirements of the food industry.
Registered by NSF for use in both direct contact applications (Class 3H) and where there is potential for incidental food contact (Class H1). Produced according to FLT Quality Standards, in facilities where HACCP audit and Good Manufacturing Practice have been implemented and form part of the quality and hygiene management systems ISO 9001 and ISO 21469.

Applications

• General maintenance lubricant 
• Conveyor lubrication 
• Slow rotating machinery and slow speed bearings 
• Pivot points

Solubility

Stable, does not emulsify with water, lower alcohols, glycols or glycerines. It is soluble in non-polar organic solvents such as ketones, ethers, esters and higher alcohols.

Seal and Paint Compatibility

Compatible with the elastomers, gaskets, seals and paints normally used in food machinery lubrication systems.

Handling and Storage

All food grade lubricants should be stored separately from other lubricants, chemical substances and foodstuffs and out of direct sunlight or other heat sources. Store between 0 °C and +40 °C. Provided that the product has been stored under these conditions we recommend to use the product within 5 years from the date of manufacture. Upon opening a pack, the product must be used within 2 years (or within 5 years of date of manufacture, whichever is the sooner).
