CASTROL Viscogen KL 300
Chain Oils
Viscogen KL 300 is a thermally stable synthetic lubricant designed for high temperature lubrication in severe environments, where the use of mineral oils or conventional synthetic oils would result in excessive wear, carbonisation and residue formation.
It can be used up to temperatures of +200 °C (+390 °F), and for up to +240 °C (464 °F) if conditions met.
Viscogen KL 300 has been developed from base fluids which form exceptionally adherent, transparent and odourless lubricating films and an additive system free of solids, metals or silicone which enhances load carrying capability and wear protection.
This lubricant is chemically stable in pH-range 2.5 - 10.5.
It resists the wash-out effect of cold and hot water.
Viscogen KL 300 is also available in 400 ml spray version - marked with an 'S' in packaging list. Spray versions are particularly suited to lubricate difficult to reach lubrication points.
Typical characteristics:
Viscosity at 40 °C (104 °F): 3500 mm2/sec
Viscosity at 100 °C (212 °F): 190 mm2/sec
Flash point, open cup method: >220 °C (430 °F)
Pour point: -12 °C (1 °F)
Four Ball Wear Test, Wear Scar Diameter, 300N/1hr: 0.4 mm
Selecting the right viscosity grade of Viscogen KL chain lubricants:
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 (e.g. roller, pin, ladder chains, insertion and flat link hoisting chains) 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. Viscogen KL finds use in many industrial applications, for example: High-rack storage shelves, bakery machines, paint lines, conveyor chains, tenter frames and dryers, washing plants, underfloor chains, steamers, slashers, baking ovens, slide ways, spindles, ropes, open gear wheels, plastic toothed belts and sheet-fed offset machines.
Viscogen KL 23 is especially suitable for use in BOPP (Biaxially oriented Polypropylene) film stretching machines.
It can be used up to temperatures of +200 °C (+390 °F), and for up to +240 °C (464 °F) if conditions met.
