Lubricants for Paper and Board Mills
Greases and oils that stand up to water and heat from the wet end to the dryer section.
What Paper Equipment Is Up Against
Water at the wet end
Bearings in the forming and press sections face constant water and chemical spray.
Heat in the dryer section
Bearings on steam-heated dryer cans run hot around the clock.
Large gearboxes
Main drive and winder gearboxes carry heavy loads 24/7; micropitting and wear are very expensive.
The cost of unplanned downtime
A stopped paper machine means major lost production every hour.
Paper and board machines are the largest and most expensive equipment in a mill. There is water at the wet end, heat in the dryer section and heavy loads everywhere. When the machine stops, lost production adds up fast.
Why paper machines are hard on lubricants
Wet-end bearings fight constant water spray. Dryer can bearings run at high temperature. Main drive gearboxes turn under heavy load every hour of the day.
Modern solutions
Polymer-fortified greases stay in place under water. Synthetic high-temperature greases last longer in the dryer section. Full synthetic and PAG gear oils reduce micropitting in gearboxes and cut energy use.
How Oilsan helps
We supply HUSKEY™ water- and heat-resistant greases and synthetic gear oils to paper, board and corrugated producers in Türkiye and around the world. Let’s review your machine’s lubrication points together.
New Lubrication Technologies for Paper
Polymer-fortified greases for wet service
High film strength, water-resistant greases stay put in wet-end bearings instead of washing out.
Synthetic high-temperature greases
Non-melt synthetic greases withstand dryer-section heat and extend relubrication intervals.
Synthetic gear oils against micropitting
Full synthetic and PAG-based gear oils protect heavily loaded gearboxes, run cooler and save energy.
HUSKEY™ Products for Paper
SMP Grease
SMP GREASE is a unique high-temperature, extreme pressure, non-melting, non-caking grease designed for extreme service applications. Blended from pure synthetic base oils and thickeners then coupled with the most modern extreme pressure and anti-wear additives to provide a tough, durable lubricating film that protects against metal to metal contact. HUSKEY SMP GREASE is designed to withstand temperatures from -30°F (-34°C) to 530°F (277°C) with intermittent usage to 600°F (318°C).
Industrial GreasesView product →Dyna-Mite Red Grease
DYNA-MITE RED GREASE is a unique high-temperature, extreme pressure, non-melting premium quality grease designed for very heavy-duty service in adverse environments. It is a blend of high quality petroleum oil and special synthetic polymers which work together to form an extremely water-resistant, tough lubricating film that prevents water washout and metal-to-metal contact even under extreme pressure or shock loading. HUSKEY DYNA-MITE RED GREASE is formulated with the optimum amounts of additives to provide maximum protection against rust, corrosion and oxidation. HUSKEY DYNA-MITE RED GREASE contains no fillers or clay thickeners. The distinctive red color makes it easy to identify during and after lubrication.
Industrial GreasesView product →HTS-2 Moly Grease
HTS-2 MOLY GREASE is a premium quality synthetic high temperature grease fortified with molybdenum disulfide (Moly). Blended completely from pure synthetic base oils and thickeners to provide extended service life and wide temperature ranges. Coupled with the most modern extreme pressure and anti-wear additives it proves an exceptional lubricant for use in industry today. HUSKEY HTS-2 OPERATING RANGE: Base Grease -35°F to 500°F with dry film lubrication to 850°F.
Industrial GreasesView product →Tuff Stuff Grease
TUFF STUFF is a new generation grease designed for today’s demanding industries. It represents the “state of the art” in grease technology, combining the finest base oil stocks, additives and synthetic thickeners available to provide a truly multi-service, friction reducing, non-melting grease with unmatched protection in normal and severe service applications. HUSKEY TUFF STUFF is a blend of the highest quality paraffinic base oils and polymers coupled with HUSKEY’S newest proprietary extreme pressure additive which forms a tough durable film of protection from friction, wear and corrosion over a wider temperature range (-20°F. to 540°F). HUSKEY TUFF STUFF’S unique formulation provides superior adhesion to metal surfaces that does not easily wash off, run out or separate even under adverse conditions of water, steam or dilute chemicals thus providing lower grease consumption and extended lubrication cycles.
Industrial GreasesView product →LPC Series Gear Oils
LPC GEAR OILS are high-performance, fully synthetic, all-purpose gear oils formulated with HUSKEY’S new proprietary SEM (Surface Eutectic Modification) additive. The revolutionary new SEM technology makes it a Lower Power Consumption (LPC) gear oil, hence the name LPC Gear Oil. They offer maximum wear protection under extreme operating conditions such as vibrations, scuffing, oscillating motions, and shock loads, where metal asperity contact occurs. Because of the thermally and mechanically stable polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oils and SEM technology, HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS give extra protection to micro-pitting due to asperity contact. In addition, compared to both conventional mineral and synthetic gear oils the HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS have proven they can lower the operating temperatures of the gearbox resulting in lower power costs. Due to their high viscosity index, they provide effortless startup even during cold temperatures; yet give extra wear protection in high-temperature applications. The added antifoam protection gives extra protection to high-speed gearboxes. In addition, the demulsification properties of HUSKEY LPC GEAR OILS provide very fast separation from water contamination. They meet or exceed all *major gear oil specifications, original equipment manufacturer requirements, and wind turbine manufacturers.
Industrial OilsView product →SPG-300 Series Oils
SPG-300 SERIES OILS are formulated from Polyalkylene glycol (PAG) base oils and carefully selected additives to provide long service life, excellent wear protection and protection against rust and corrosion. The combination of outstanding oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures, a very high viscosity index, and excellent low-temperature properties makes them suitable for year round use over a wide temperature range. HUSKEY SPG-300 SERIES OILS are NSF/USDA H-1 *Registered and KOSHER approved which gives them full acceptability for use in all areas where incidental food contact may occur.
Food-Grade Lubricants · Industrial OilsView product →SGL-800 Series Oils
SGL-800 SERIES OILS are heavy duty extreme pressure oils formulated from the highest quality selected synthetic base oils and additives available. HUSKEY SGL-800 SERIES OILS have been compounded to be more reliable, even under the toughest conditions. These high quality 100% synthetic oils have been designed to give extra protection in high and low temperature applications. HUSKEY SGL-800 SERIES OILS are NSF H-2 Registered for use in food processing plants.
Industrial OilsView product →Common Questions
Which grease suits wet-end bearings?
A highly water-resistant, tacky grease such as HUSKEY Dyna-Mite Red, or SMP Grease, which is designed for wet and hot service.
Should we switch our paper machine gearboxes to synthetic oil?
For heavily loaded gearboxes running continuously, usually yes. HUSKEY LPC and SPG-300 Series are recommended for high-load gearboxes in the paper industry. Check seal and oil compatibility before changing over.
What do you recommend for dryer can bearings?
It depends on the bearing type and lubrication system. Greased points can use a high-temperature grease such as HUSKEY HTS-2 Moly Grease; contact us about circulating oil systems.
