CASTROL Tribol CH 290 / 220
Chain Oils
Tribol CH 290/220 is a conveyor lubricant formulated with premium synthetic fluids. It is designed to lubricate conveyor chains and open trolley wheel bearings in high temperature paint ovens found in the automotive and metal decorating industries.
Tribol CH 290/220 lubricates any chain and open trolley bearings where compatibility with water-based paints and coatings is critical. It is based on water soluble and synthetic fluids known for their natural lubricating ability, favourable volatility characteristics and chemical and thermal stability. An advanced additive system provides additional Anti-Wear and Extreme Pressure characteristics under boundary conditions, for protection from surging loads and extreme oven temperatures.
Tribol CH 290/220 is most suitable for automotive production lines, which usually include cathodic electro-deposition, waterbased painting (coating), then drying and curing in an oven. Typically, these operations include immersing parts into baths from moving overhead conveyors. Contamination from dripping lubricant is always a threat to production and process baths. However, should Tribol CH 290/220 ever drip into a water base process bath, it would dissolve and disperse, preventing accumulation and the disruption of coatings or electrodepositions.
Tribol CH 290/220 is usually recommended for oven temperatures from 150°C (302°F) to 220°C (428°F).
At elevated temperatures, reapply more frequently rather than increase the amount applied.
Typical characteristics:
Viscosity at 40 °C (104 °F): 225 mm2/sec - ISO VG 220
Viscosity at 100 °C (212 °F): 39 mm2/sec
Flash point, open cup method: 280 °C (536 °F)
Pour point: -38 °C (-39 °F)
Four Ball Wear Test, Wear Scar Diameter, 40kgf/75°C/1200rpm/1hr: 0.36 mm
Tribol CH 290/220 was previously called CASTROL Tribol 290/220. Its name was changed in 2015.
