Castrol Viscogen™ range are thermally stable synthetic lubricants designed for high temperature lubrication in severe environments, where the use of mineral oils or conventional synthetic oils would result in excessive wear, carbonization and residue formation. They can be used up to temperatures of +240°C/+464°F, depending on the viscosity. Viscogen have been developed from base fluids which form exceptionally adherent, transparent and odorless lubricating films and an additive system free of solids, metals or silicone which enhances load carrying capability and wear protection.
CASTROL™ VISCOGEN
Synthetic high temperature chain lubricant
Synthetic high temperature chain lube
For high-temperature chain lubrication in harsh environments where the use of mineral oils or conventional synthetic oils would result in excessive wear, carbonisation and residue formation, Cogelsa Viscogen is the solution. Multi-service synthetic lubricant for high-temperature applications (conveyor chains, bakery machines, paint lines, conveyor chains, tenter frames and dryers), provides low residue formation and low volatility. With its excellent load-carrying capacity under high temperatures and excellent adhesion. Viscogen "provides" exceptional corrosion protection and oxidation resistance.
the right viscosity grade
Viscogen has been developed from base fluids which form exceptionally adherent, transparent and odorless lubricating films and an additive system free of solids, metals or silicone which enhances load carrying capability and wear protection.
Viscogen KL is available in six different viscosities depending on the ambient and operating conditions. The dimensions of the chain as well as its structural shape are important when selecting the right viscosity. The way the lubricant is applied must also be considered e.g., manual lubrication, drip feed lubricator, central lubrication, sump lubrication or via spray can.
