Lubricant Applications
Metallurgy
Metallurgical equipment typically operates under harsh conditions involving high temperatures, high pressures, and heavy loads, such as blast furnace top equipment in ironmaking, continuous casting machines in steelmaking, and rolling mills. These systems require lubricants with excellent resistance to high temperatures and pressures, as well as extreme pressure and anti-wear properties. For instance, the gearboxes of rolling mills necessitate high-viscosity, high-temperature gear oils to withstand immense pressures and elevated temperatures.
