Molygraph Ultramill Grease PU Premium enables a steel plant to achieve a remarkable of 58% Cost Savings

Lubrication of continuous casters in steel mills is challenging due to continuous high temperatures and harsh conditions. A leading steel mill manufacturer in India reached out to Molygraph to provide them with a superior solution to their existing grease, which was displaying high levels of oxidation with poor performance. Molygraph recommended Ultramill PU Premium, a proprietary Polyurea chemistry technology that allowed for high permanence lubrication of their continuous casters.

Due to extreme temperatures in the continuous caster application, conventional greases are prone to failure. The steel mill manufacturer was using a lithium-based EP grease that was melting out of the bearings, which resulted in increased pumping of the grease to keep temperatures in check. The customer faced the following key challenges.

• Existing grease was failing at continuously high temperatures.
• Excess grease needed to be pumped to prevent bearing failure.
