Pyroshield® Syn Kiln Lubricant (9020)

Product Description

Synthetic Oil Protects Slow-Moving, Straight-Cut Open Gears

Pyroshield® Syn Kiln Lubricant is a heavy-duty synthetic fluid designed to provide exceptional protection for high-load, heavy-shock, high-heat applications, particularly large shrouded and unshrouded open gears servicing kilns and ball mills in the mining, mineral processing and cement industries. It is recommended for slow-moving, straight-cut gear sets where flaking occurs using a conventional open gear lubricant. Pyroshield Syn Kiln Lubricant is non-asphaltic and formulated with a synergistic mix of extreme pressure and wear-reducing additives, including solid particles of fine graphite and of Almasol®, LE’s exclusive wear-reducing solid additive.

Beneficial Qualities

Exceptional Gear Protection

  • Contains solid particles of fine graphite and Almasol for high load-carrying capacity
  • Exhibits exceptionally high film strength, helpful for withstanding high-load, heavy-shock applications even at increased operating temperatures
  • Creates layer of solids to protect metal surfaces, preventing destructive metal-to-metal contact
  • Reduces gear temperatures by 5% to 15%
  • Clings tenaciously to metal surfaces
  • Reduces gear noise
  • Carries 95-lb Timken OK load

Environmentally Friendly

  • Contains no lead
  • Can be disposed of like other nonhazardous petroleum oils

Easy To Use

  • Does not require equipment to be shut down during conversion
  • Can be applied manually or through automatic spray systems

Cost Effective

  • Performs better and lasts longer than competitive lubricants
  • Ensures trouble-free operation, fewer failures and less downtime
  • Reduces maintenance costs for repairs, parts and labor
  • Reduces lubricant consumption by 25% to 50%
  • Reduces energy consumption

Proprietary Additives

LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Pyroshield Syn Kiln Lubricant contains Almasol.

Almasol® solid wear-reducing additive withstands extremely heavy loads, chemical attack and temperatures up to 1,900°F (1,038°C). It is attracted to metal surfaces, forming a microscopic layer but not building on itself or affecting clearances. Almasol minimizes metal-to-metal contact and the resulting friction, heat and wear.
