Super Lube® - The Tough Choice for Construction
Downtime is unacceptable. Uninterrupted availability, reduced amperage, and lower frequency of greasing combined with increased equipment life is what our clients mining coal, copper, gold, and gravel demand. We are dedicated to providing our customers with products that ensure they can handle anything that comes their way. We make sure that your construction site will operate exactly as it should in the harshest conditions, no matter the application. From drills to cranes, forklifts, generators, and more, Super Lube® gets the job done.
At Super Lube®, we can help you or your team identify exactly what lubricants will meet your needs and save you time and money. Your construction needs are important. Let us help you take care of them.
Mining - The ideal setting for Super Lube®
Super Lube® lubricants are designed for adverse conditions typical for mining and power plants, including extreme loads, moisture, strong contamination, and temperature differences. They perform a myriad of functions including longer lasting anti-wear protection, low-temperature fluidity, oxidation stability and corrosion protection. Since our products are synthetic and have no metal base, they are ideal for gold and copper mines where non-metallic lubricants are required.
Mines use conveyors that move with gearboxes. Our Super Lube® Gear Oil is clean and can withstand the extreme conditions of mining. Additionally, because our materials are synthetic, there should be a real energy savings as Super Lube® will enable the gearboxes to run cooler. With many applications including the lubrication of conveyors, coal crushers, hoists, air tools, water pumps, air fans, roof bolters, ARO Sandvik bolters, Joy cram bolters, continues miners, cutter gearboxes, pins rams, drift drives and much more!
Super Lube® High Temperature Extreme Pressure Grease is designed for use on open gears and other severe applications like mining draglines, and shovels, ball mills and kilns. Our grease is used in various brick plants to lubricate the wheels on the trucks that take the bricks into the kilns.
Today's mining equipment such as draglines, loaders, shovels, excavators, haulers, and other earth moving equipment often runs at maximum stress and heavy loads. Conventional lubricants are unable to withstand such demands. The result can be costly in terms of equipment failure, repair, or replacement. Downtime takes a toll on mine productivity and profitability. With Super Lube® Synthetic lubricants, you can count on maximizing your equipment uptime - and your profitability. Our lubricants are formulated to improve equipment performance, reduce downtime, cut operating costs, and extend equipment life.
We understand that your equipment has to perform on the surface or underground, in some of the toughest conditions on the planet. Our greases, oils and fluids for mining are formulated to deliver outstanding equipment protection over an extreme range of temperatures and environmental conditions.
NLGI & GC-LB
The National Lubricating Grease Institute is an international trade association that serves the grease and gear lubricant industry; NLGI has a grading system that assists customers in determining the viscosity or flow of any given grease. Super Lube® Greases have NLGI grades that can be found on their Technical Data Sheets.
Due to the large variety of specifications for Automotive Service Greases, established by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (O.E.M), it is difficult for grease manufacturers to make products that satisfy a wide breadth of applications. With the issuance of ASTM D4950 Standard Classification and Specification for Automotive Service Grease, it not only became possible but easy to offer the products needed.
Chassis lubricants receive a letter designation L and wheel bearing lubricants have a letter designation G. Performance Classifications within these groups result in two letter designations for chassis greases (LA and LB), and three for wheel bearing greases (GA, GB, and GC). The automotive industry is in general agreement that the highest performance classification, to date, in each group (LB and GC) is suitable for service relubrication.
To assist users, NLGI developed the NLGI Certification Mark. Many owner manuals advise users to use those greases with the NLGI Certification Mark on the label. Ensure that you are using the highest quality products in your mining and construction projects by choosing Super Lube®. More information on this can be found on each product's page and Technical Data Sheet.
