Lubrication Engineers’ Pyroshield Syn Kiln Lubricant (9020) is a non-asphaltic synthetic heavy-duty formulation that offers an environmentally friendly alternative while meeting the demanding needs of the cement industry.
The lubricant’s unique composition, featuring fine graphite and Almasol solid additives, provides high load-carrying capacity and prevents metal-to-metal contact, ensuring optimal protection for cement kiln and ball mill equipment.
Pyroshield Syn Kiln Lubricant boasts high film strength, enabling it to withstand high-load and heavy-shock applications even at elevated temperatures typical in cement kilns and ball mills. Its temperature reduction capability of 5% to 15% improves gear efficiency and extends equipment life, while the 95-lb. Timken OK load rating ensures reliable performance under extreme pressure conditions.
The lubricant is suitable for versatile application methods, permitting manual or automatic spray system application without equipment shutdown, crucial for maintaining continuous cement production. Users can expect a significant 25% to 50% reduction in lubricant consumption, noted the manufacturer, leading to lower operational costs and reduced maintenance requirements for cement plant machinery.
The proprietary Almasol additive offers remarkable temperature resistance up to 1,900 F, maintaining protection even in extreme heat conditions, while meeting multiple industry standards including ANSI/AGMA 9005-EO2 and cement equipment manufacturer requirements.
Available in quarter drums and drums to accommodate different volume needs, this lubricant’s black color with graphite content allows for visual confirmation of proper application and coverage, ensuring optimal protection for critical cement production equipment.
Furthermore, the lead-free composition allows for disposal like standard petroleum oils without special handling, making it an environmentally responsible choice for cement manufacturers seeking sustainable solutions.
