Commonly used lubricants in metallurgical enterprises include the following categories:
Super oil film bearing oil: Widely used for fluid lubrication in hot rolling mills, cold rolling mills, and wire rod plants at steel mills.
HM Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oil: Suitable for high-performance anti-wear hydraulic systems operating at pressures up to 21 MPa.
Water-glycol fire-resistant hydraulic oil: Suitable for hydraulic systems operating in open-flame or high-temperature environments with pressures up to 10 MPa.
Ester-based fire-resistant hydraulic oil: Widely used in hydraulic systems of safety-critical equipment—such as continuous casting, blast furnaces, furnace dismantling machines, hot rolling mills, foundries, steel ladles, and sintering plants—in the steel industry, where pressures can reach up to 40 MPa.
Heavy-duty industrial gear oil: Widely suitable for lubricating sliding, vibrating bearings, gears, chains, steel cables, and more.
Heavy-duty open gear oil: Suitable for lubricating sintering machines, large ladle turntables, crane gearboxes, and open gears, among other applications.
Synthetic (air) compressor oil: Suitable for lubricating screw compressors, medium- and high-pressure reciprocating compressors, and large rotary compressors.
The application scenarios and characteristics of these lubricants in metallurgical enterprises are as follows:
Super Oil Film Bearing Oil: Used for fluid lubrication in rolling mills, delivering stable lubrication performance.
HM Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oil: Designed for high-performance, wear-resistant hydraulic systems, ensuring stable operation.
Water-glycol fire-resistant hydraulic oil: Suitable for hydraulic systems operating in high-temperature environments, featuring excellent fire-retardant properties.
Ester-based flame-retardant hydraulic oil: Suitable for hydraulic systems operating under high-pressure conditions, ensuring equipment safety.
Heavy-duty industrial gear oil: Designed for high-load and vibration-prone mechanical components, delivering excellent lubrication performance.
Heavy-duty open gear oil: Suitable for open gears and sliding bearings, providing stable lubrication performance.
Synthetic (air) compressor oil: Suitable for various types of compressors, ensuring their smooth operation.
The selection and use of these lubricants are directly linked to the stable operation and safe production of metallurgical equipment.
