Lubricating
Oils

Durable and stable

achieving sustained high performance with lubricating oils.

Material wear and corrosion in industrial plants can considerably impair production processes and lead to massive loss of revenue. By choosing the right lubrication, you can effectively combat such issues and sustainably optimise your production processes. The solution is high-performance speciality lubricating oils from Klüber Lubrication.

Multifaceted performance for your production: along with effective greasing, our lubricating oils allow you to minimise wear and friction, provide reliable corrosion protection, and dissolve residue deposits.
High performance: with Klüber lubricating oils you achieve optimal results, even with high speeds, heavy loads and high temperatures.
Good compatibility and stability: our lubricating oils feature very good compatibility with a wide variety of materials, as well as outstanding wetting capability and low variation in viscosity over a wide temperature range.
Special solutions for individual needs: from lubricating oils for a wide variety of industry sectors to enhanced energy efficiency, we provide you with the right solution to your challenge.

What are industrial-use lubricating oils?

Lubricating oils are high-performance substances that reduce mechanical friction and wear when used in suitable composition, similar to lubricating greases. From a purely chemical perspective, lubricating oils are mixtures that basically consists of two components:

Base oil component: This can be a base oil or a mixture of different base oils, depending on the desired characteristics.
Individual additives: The number and choice of additives varies, depending on the desired characteristics of the lubricating oil.

Benefits of
oil lubrication

Minimisation of friction and wear: lubricating oils form a stable fluid film that protects the surfaces of friction bodies.
Removal of heat (cooling): the correct lubricating oil can easily remove the friction heat occurring in the operation of your machines. An effective lubricating oil has only a slight tendency to decomposition under thermal load, allowing sustained action.
Effective lubrication of poorly accessible points: lubricating oils have good flow characteristics (viscosity). This means they can also reach poorly accessible lubrication points, for example in chains.
Advantageous behaviour with residues: a special feature of effective lubricating oils is that they can dissolve contaminants resulting from high temperatures and heavy loads. Lubricating oils with a low inherent tendency to residue formation are optimal in such cases.

Gear units of all power classes have to deliver more power in a more compact size and at lower weight, effectively resist wear and scuffing, and withstand high gear temperatures. Higher operating temperatures have a negative effect on the life of gear units and conventional lubricants.

High-performance gear oils from Klüber Lubrication help to keep wear low and increase efficiency, thereby reducing operating and maintenance costs. They provide protection against scuffing and micropitting and provide effective support in avoiding damage to gear teeth and premature failure of the gear unit.

We also offer environmentally friendly and biodegradable oils that additionally make a valuable contribution to the sustainable operation of your processes.

Our lubricating oils are available with standard viscosities from ISO VG 32 to 1500, depending on your application, and are used in numerous industrial applications.
