Solid lubricants

img25SOLID GREASES. They are used in construction and assembly enterprises for equipment, machines and devices as well as for motor vehicles. Tovotte solid lubricants. Synonym: Towot. These are petroleum products. Tovotte's lubricants include, among others, calcium soap salts (fatty acids) and refined mineral oils. The standard states two types of Tovttte solid lubricants: grease No. 1 and lubricant Nr 2. They should not contain sand and other scratching components, should have a homogeneous appearance and be water-resistant. Tovotte's lubricants are used to lubricate parts of these mechanisms, for which liquid oils cannot be used as too thin. Tovotte Grease No. 1 it is used for lightly loaded machines in hard-to-reach places and there, where lubrication with liquid oil would be pointless. Grease No. 2 - use as above - for more loaded machines. For equipment working in industrial construction, Tovotte grease No. 2 it is used as the most suitable for excavator parts of trencher with crawler belt conveyor, for concrete mixers and others with electric drive, for bearings and bending machines (for bending iron). The packaging consists of special wooden drums for lubricants, Marked: Grease 1 and Grease 2. Automotive grease ST (calcium). It is obtained similarly to Tovotte's lubricants. Characterized by a drop point not lower than 75 ° C and a worked penetration at 25 ° C - 200-290 °. It is used for the maintenance of motor vehicle chassis, rolling bearings, pins, joints, etc.. Applied to construction equipment, it is for ball bearings. Solid lubricants for rolling bearings. Synonym: bearing greases. They consist of refined mineral oils and the alkali salts of calcium or sodium potassium fatty acids. Currently, four types of lubricants are produced: NO 1, NO 2, ŁT3 and ŁT-CH. Special attention should be paid to the storage of ŁT lubricants. Storage method (storage) should provide a guarantee against contamination (mineral solids), because the contamination has a destructive effect on the bearing structure. Wire rope grease. It is a product of crude oil processing, containing, in addition to oil residues, unrefined mineral oils and special thickening admixtures. It is characterized by a drop point not lower than 60 ° C, penetration at 25 ° C (after kneading) — 220—300, water content - up to 1%,. It is used for preservation of ropes for cranes and drum hoists used in the production, at an ambient temperature of not more than 40 ° C. Gear wheel grease. It is used to lubricate highly loaded open gear wheels, namely: gears of open bucket excavators on caterpillars, of the bulldozer gears , for cranes and for concrete mixers. The packaging is made of wooden barrels (lubricants) marked - "Lubricant KZ”.
