Product Information Industrial Lubricants Molykote® Gearbox and Chain Oils FEATURES • Lower overall maintenance costs • Wider temperature range • Longer oil-drain intervals • Reduced lubricant consumption • Extended equipment lifetime • Reduced energy consumption • Long life reduces lubricant usage, maintenance cost COMPOSITION Hydroprocessed mineral oil (MO), polyalphaolefin (PAO) and polyalphaolefin/mineral oil (PAO/MO) based lubricants. DESCRIPTION Molykote® Gearbox and Chain Oils help prevent wear and process interruptions in power transmission systems and components. Compared to conventional oils, they also offer greater resistance to oxidation and stable performance at high temperatures and under high loads. Molykote Gearbox and Oils maximize fill intervals and maintain viscosity characteristics at wide temperature ranges. HOW TO USE Follow equipment manufacturer’s recommendations for maintenance procedures and oil specifications. To ensure the longest possible life span for lubricating fluids, sample analysis is recommended. When utilized on a regular basis, sample analysis can track normal aging and depletion of antioxidants in lubricating fluids. Moreover, sample analysis can identify abnormal contamination that may be limiting lubricant life. Contact Dow Corning customer service for additional information. LISTING AND SPECIFICATIONS Molykote lubricating fluids are kosher approved and conform to USDA listing requirements under H-1 or H-2 designations (see Typical Properties table). An H-1 designation indicates the lubricated part can have incidental food contact not to exceed 1 0 ppm. An H-2 designation indicates the lubricated part cannot have contact with food.
