PROPERTIES
BAHRAIN LUBRICANTS Rock Drill Oils consist of selected mineral oils specially compounded with lubricity fortifiers, corrosions inhibitors, emulsifiers and tackiness additives.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Design features and benefits of the BAHRAIN LUBRICANTS range of high quality rock drill oils include:
- High film strength.
- Reduced friction.
- Ability to absorb excess water and form a mayonnaise-type lubricant when ‘wet air’ or wet drilling attachments are present.
- Provide a suitable seal between piston and cylinder.
- Reduced wear.
- Helps maintain maximum percussion efficiency. Preferentially adhere to metal surfaces and resist blow-off.
- Improved protection wear against wear caused by poor lubrication. Helps maintain operating speed.
- Reduced wear, allows operation in conditions of high or low temperatures.
APPLICATION
Mining, quarrying, constructions, roadwork, tunneling and excavations. Rock Drill Oils are recommended for the following well-known companies including Gardner-Denver, Atlas Copco and SIG. However the correct grade should be selected against specific equipment and for local operating conditions. Most manufacturers include selection charts in their handbooks to assist in the selection of the correct grade.
