CHAIN LUBE FCL-330

Product Description

Applied Lubrication Technology Inc. Chain Lube FCL-330 was specifically developed to meet the extreme lubrication demands of Heat Treatment Furnace Chains which reach temperatures beyond the capabilities of even the best, non solid containing, synthetic lubricants.  FCL-330 base stocks were carefully selected to satisfy film strength requirements, the need to effectively penetrate into the hot chains, and the ability to break down residue that is present from previously utilized lubricants. These base stocks not only penetrate and lubricate but also deliver the highly stable wear and friction reducing dispersion of ultrafine graphite particles to the chains wear points. This graphite coating provides boundary lubrication at temperatures up to 482°C (900°F).  The highly refined base stock utilized in this lubricant was selected due to its ability to quickly penetrate the hot chains, while aiding to clean the chain surfaces and break down residue that is present from previously utilized lubricants. As the carrier delivers the solid film lubricant to the chains internal wear points it evaporates relatively quickly, therefore reducing the amount and longevity of smoking that occurs.  Chain Lube FCL-330 contains a highly stable wear and friction reducing dispersion of ultrafine graphite particles which lubricate effectively at temperatures up to 482°C (900°F), and helps to prevent metal to metal contact.

The FCL-330 base stocks and additives are all Copper and Zinc free by design in order to comply with requirements of specific Heat Treatment Processes.  Chain Lube FCL-330  is ideally applied by the ALT automatic lubrication system

Other advantages are as follows:

  • Eliminates galling, seizing, stick-slip, and press-fit distortion.
  • Reduces break-in time for new equipment.
  • Prevents fretting.
  • Protects against Corrosion.
