Hot stuff - High-temperature grease offers new performance range

Where there's a baking oven, there's heat – whether at home or in a factory. If an oven can be operated conveniently and without problems does not least depend on lubricants, for instance those used in the ball and roller bearings or linear guides of the baking tray extension mechanism.

Klüberalfa HPX 93-1202 is a new special grease with NSF H1 approval for applications in the food-processing industry. Operating temperatures up to 300 °C pose no problem, not even in the long term. Previously used greases usually went along with a loss of performance due to lubricant starvation, while Klüberalfa HPX 93-1202 has a base oil with a particularly low evaporation rate, ensuring lubricity over an extremely long period of time. The enduring lubricity enables guide mechanisms in ovens to run smoothly and with good dampening for a long time, too. This marks an increase in performance which the manufacturers of household or industrial ovens can market as a longer service life of their components and equipment.
