Food is very often transported in a food production plant using chains and conveyors. As this equipment is often exposed to water, cleaning agents, and extreme temperature variations, it is extremely important to select the right product, such as food-grade lubricant, to ensure safe and efficient operation while maintaining compliance with food safety standards.
Foodmax® Chain HT-X is based on highly polar biodegradable base oil and is inhibited against oxidation to give a long-wet film life at high temperatures. The highly polar molecules strongly adhere to the surface and withstand high temperatures, at the same time separating the moving parts thanks to its highly viscous food-grade lubricant film which is maintained at these high temperatures. This results in low carbon formation and low oxidation.
Foodmax® Chain HT-X, a food-grade lubricant, can withstand high-temperature applications (> 250 °C) and is therefore suitable for bread ovens in bakeries. Foodmax® Chain HT-X will reduce wear on chains by using the latest available technology. It possesses outstanding anti-wear capacity and shows outstanding evaporation properties. Foodmax® Chain HT-X, being smoke-free and inodorous.
