Molylube SF100 Semi-Synthetic Open Gear Lubricant – Ultra Heavy and Extra Heavy

Two new grades — Ultra Heavy and Extra Heavy — have been added to the Bel-Ray Molylube SF100 Semi-Synthetic Open Gear Lubricant range, excellent for use on draglines, shovels and other heavy industrial applications within the mining industry.

The versatile, environmentally-friendly Molylube SF100 Semi-Synthetic Open Gear Lubricants are excellent for use on draglines, shovels and heavy industrial applications.  Suitable for use in temperatures from the Arctic to the Sahara, these new products supplement the existing grades ― Sub-Arctic, Arctic, Low Temperature NS, Light, Medium and Heavy ― that can extend component life by reducing wear. The corresponding decrease in lubricant consumption can lead to lower operational costs and increased machine availability.
