Description

Castrol Molub-Alloy™ Foodproof 823 FM greases were developed for general lubrication of food machinery. They have been approved as "physiologically safe" by the Landesgewerbe-Anstalt LGA Bayern. Castrol Molub-Alloy Foodproof 823 FM greases have also been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (NSF) as "H1" lubricants which can be used in the food and beverage industry even if incidental contact with food products is possible. A select base oil blend plus an FDA approved thickener provide good adhesion, film strength and water-wash resistance even at elevated temperatures. Drip-free characteristics and the off-white color of Castrol Molub-Alloy Foodproof 823 FM greases complement house keeping efforts in food and kindred industries. A high performance combination of food grade additives provides excellent anti-wear protection. The combination of additives and blending techniques maximize rust and oxidation characteristics for effective rust protection and long service life of the grease.

Application 

• Developed to lubricate food machinery in high-temperature applications where incidental contact with food is possible.
• They are recommended for sleeve and rolling bearings in overhead conveyors and other material handling equipment. 
• May be applied manually or with automatic dispensing equipment.Lighter consistency 823-0 FM grease can be used in gear cases where a non-channeling slump grease is needed to control leakage.
• Temperature application range: - 30°C up to – 120°C
