Paper mill achieves significant reduction in maintenance downtime & cost by switching to Molygraph’s SGH 460 Premium grease with superior water resistance properties

Bearings in the Wet End, Dry End, and Calendering section of the Paper Mill are subjected to water ingress, steam, chemicals, and heavy loads.

A leading Paper manufacturer in Western India was facing performance issues with the current in use mill grease.

The manufacturer reached out to Molygraph for a solution. Our R&D team developed a grease SGH 460 PREMIUM which could perform better than the existing grease in harsh conditions of the main mill area.

The customer was facing the concern of grease changing colour and getting washed out from bearings due to water ingress. The customer had already tested other products on the said application but couldn’t get the desired results.

MOLYGRAPH SGH 460 PREMIUM

Special Complex Heavy Duty High Temperature Water Resistant Grease

• Molygraph's application experts studied the stringent application requirement of water resistance which was relatively lower in the case of the incumbent grease. This was identified as the main reason for the problem.
  
• Our experts formulated a special metal complex base grease SGH 460 PREMIUM that had excellent water resistance and high temperature, chemical resistance, and load-carrying properties.

• High load carrying capacity.
• Excellent resistant to hot and cold water ingress.
• Does not harden prematurely.
• Capable of withstanding high shock loads.
• Good wear protection.
• High base oil viscosity ensures higher working loads on bearings.

SGH 460 PREMIUM

Special Complex Heavy Duty High Temperature Water Resistant Grease

• Base oil: Refined Mineral Oil
• Base Oil Viscosity @ 40°C : 460 cSt
• Operating Temperature Range : -20°C to +200°C
• Packaging: 1 Kg | 5 Kg | 20 Kg | 180 Kg

The customer did a successful test run for over two months and has now standardized SGH 460 PREMIUM in the plant with an annual savings of over 20% on the grease cost in addition to the reduced maintenance
downtime.
