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

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.
