Overview: The document provides detailed information on BECHEM's high-performance chain oils, emphasizing their tested capabilities in wear protection, friction reduction, and high-temperature performance. It highlights the importance of oil penetration for effective lubrication and the benefits of synthetic esters and polyalphaolefin in oil formulation.
Specifications: BECHEM chain oils are designed for mixed friction environments, requiring excellent creeping properties and adhesive strength to ensure long lubrication cycles and corrosion protection. The oils are formulated with or without solid lubricants to meet specific application needs.
Performance Tests: The oils undergo wear protection and friction tests (SRV) at temperatures above 200°C, evaporation tests at high temperatures, and oxidation stability tests (DSC). They also meet copper corrosion standards (DIN/ASTM).
Product Range: The document lists various synthetic chain oils, each with specific temperature ranges, viscosities, and applications, such as high-temperature chain oils for conti-press chains, food processing, freezing units, furnaces, and agricultural machinery.
Viscosity Selection: Guidance is provided on selecting the right viscosity, noting that higher viscosity can increase lubrication duration, corrosion protection, and loadability, but may decrease oil penetration and pumpability.
Applications: Besides chain lubrication, these oils are suitable for intermittent lubrication and corrosion protection of cams, slide surfaces, and toothings. They are also used in various industrial applications, including food processing and environmental conditions.
Additional Products: The document mentions other BECHEM products, including special lubricants for high and low temperatures, multipurpose greases, hydraulic oils, biodegradable lubricants, and metalworking mediums.
