Molykote L-1468-FG Foodsafe Chain Oil

Molykote Foodsafe food grade L-1468FG is a synthetic freezer chain lubricant that helps prevent wear and process interruptions in power transmission systems and components.

Compared to conventional oils, it also offers greater resistance to oxidation and stable performance at high temperatures and under high loads.

Molykote chain oils maximise fill intervals and maintain viscosity characteristics at wide temperature ranges.

A meat processing plant was using a mineral oil product to lubricate its drag chains. The chains were experiencing a high degree of rust and wear due to the frequent washings that were required.

A manufacturer of frozen meals was experiencing problems with a high degree of chain jumping due to sticking linkages in its processing freezer. The mineral oil used had a tackifying agent which ensured oil adherence.

The tackifier however, acted as a thickening agent causing blockages. The plant switched to Molykote L-1468FG. This oil is formulated with anti-wear additives and a food grade tackifier that remains fluid at low temperatures.
