CASTROL 823 FM 400g Mollub Alloy Foodproof Grease

Castrol 823 FM 400g Mollub Alloy Foodproof Grease

Castrol Molub-Alloy Foodproof 823 FM greases were developed for general lubrication of food machinery. They have been approved as "physiologically safe" by the Landesgewerbe-Anstalt LGA Bayern. 823 FM greases have also been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (NSF) as "H1" lubricants which can be used in the food and beverage industry even if incidental contact with food products is possible. A high-performance combination of food-grade additives provides excellent anti-wear protection. The combination of additives and blending techniques maximize rust and oxidation characteristics for effective rust protection and long service life of the grease.

Features:

• H1 lubricants acceptable for use where incidental contact with food is possible
• The very high melting point and non-drip characteristics of this grease minimize product contamination
• Unique water resistance provides continuous protection even when equipment is washed down periodically
• Base fluid and all other ingredients used in 823 FM comply with sections 178.3570 and 178.3620 of the FDA guidelines

Applications:

• May be applied manually or with automatic dispensing equipment
• Developed to lubricate food machinery in high-temperature applications where incidental contact with food is possible
• They are recommended for the sleeve and rolling bearings in overhead conveyors and other material handling equipment
• Lighter consistency 823-0 FM grease can be used in gear cases where a non-channelling slump grease is needed to control leakage
