High-temperature chain oil for chain temperatures up to 300 °C

High temperature chain oil in insulation production

In industrial furnaces used for the production of insulation materials, conditions are particularly demanding. Insulation materials are transported under extreme heat. The increasing use of formaldehyde-free binders is also forcing the insulation industry to operate curing ovens at significantly higher temperatures. In this process, the chains that drive the conveyor systems are exposed to high temperatures of up to 300 °C. This creates an extreme situation that also poses considerable challenges for the chain oil. In high-temperature applications, the thermal stability of the chain oil plays a crucial role. Only if the oil remains fluid at elevated temperatures can it effectively contribute to wear protection. The higher the furnace temperature, the greater the likelihood that most of the lubricant will evaporate, leaving behind solid, varnish-like residues. These residues can cause chain links to stick together, requiring time-consuming cleaning. In the worst case, this can lead not only to increased chain wear but even to chain breakage, resulting in costly downtime. This risk can be minimized by using the appropriate chain oil.

RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 – a chain oil with exceptional thermal stability up to 300 °C

RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 is a high-temperature chain oil developed for the lubrication of chains at extreme temperatures. RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 ensures exceptionally good wear protection in the high temperature range. The low evaporation tendency at extreme temperatures leads to savings in consumption quantities in the double-digit percentage range compared to conventional high-temperature chain oils. In addition, the low evaporation means that the working environment is less polluted by smoke and odour. A new technology significantly improves lubrication performance and thermal stability. Where other high-temperature chain oils cannot withstand the extreme temperatures and have long since ceased to flow, RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 remains stable and maintains the flexibility of the chain links - even application temperatures of up to 300 °C.

Minimising the risk of kiln fires in the production of insulation materials

During the production of insulation materials, furnace fires can occur. The causes of these fires vary, but in many cases a mixture of insulation fibers, binding agents, and degraded lubricant ignites. This leads to unplanned downtime and the production of defective insulation material that must be discarded. The exceptionally high thermal stability of RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 significantly reduces the risk of lubricant-related furnace fires.

Since the introduction of RENOLIN CHAINLUBE HT 7001 for lubricating drive chains in curing ovens at leading insulation manufacturers, the number of lubricant-related furnace fires has been reduced to zero. Read the success story here.
