The lubricant’s formulation is designed to protect equipment operating at extreme temperatures, while increasing energy efficiency and extending oil drain intervals.
ExxonMobil claims it can also help protect equipment operating at temperatures up to 150°C in intermittent service making it ideally suited for a range of paper industry applications, such as helping to protect dryer and calendar drives, as well as kiln and trunnion bearings.
The advanced synthetic lubricant is specifically formulated to deliver excellent wear protection and oxidation resistance without any of the compatibility challenges often associated with glycol-based products used in high temperature applications.
Emre Noyan, industrial marketing manager at ExxonMobil, said: “Protecting heavily loaded paper manufacturing equipment from high in-service temperatures can be a major challenge for mill operators. Mobil SHC Elite’s extended oil life, wide temperature range performance and energy efficiency improvement can help operators increase uptime and cut costs – giving them a competitive edge.”
