Industrial valves are often used in harsh environments with high temperatures, corrosive chemicals and dust particles.
As a result, these valves typically require frequent maintenance to keep them functioning properly over the long term. However, Krytox oils and greases can improve valve reliability, reducing the need for costly maintenance and new valves.
Valves are widely used in all industrial facilities:
- chemical production plants
- paper making factories
- water refineries
- textile mills
- refineries
- car factories
Krytox lubricants for valves
Krytox high performance lubricants and greases allow the valves to resist corrosion, reduce friction and increase performance.
As a result, the wear life of the valves is greatly improved. Overall, costly maintenance processes can be reduced or avoided altogether due to the higher reliability and performance of the lubricants.
Benefits of Krytox lubricants and greases for industrial valve performance include:
- Compatible with most chemicals found in industrial applications
- Chemically and biologically stable and non-reactive
- non-toxic
- Non-flammable
- Resistant to extreme temperatures
- Resistant to water, moisture, steam and disinfectants
- Unaffected by caustic or acidic cleaning agents
- Contain no volatile organic compounds (VOC)
Krytox lubricants can also be used for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valves in automotive systems. These valves play a crucial role in reducing engine emissions, increasing fuel efficiency and improving engine performance.
