MOLYKOTE L-1668FM Synthetic Blend Vacuum Pump Oil
MOLYKOTE L-1668FM Synthetic Blend Vacuum Pump Oil is a high-performance vacuum pump oil for extended maintenance intervals in corrosive and high-moisture environments. MOLYKOTE L-1668FM is a synthetic blend vacuum pump oil specifically formulated for rotary vane vacuum pumps operating in demanding conditions. Its unique formulation, combining a synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oil with mineral oil and specialized additives, provides robust viscosity and film thickness protection, even at normal operating temperatures. This results in extended oil drain intervals and reduced lubrication usage, contributing to lower maintenance costs. The oil's low vapor pressure further enhances its performance.
The inclusion of anti-oxidant and anti-corrosion additives ensures reliable antifoam properties and protection against the degradation commonly seen in corrosive or high-moisture environments. MOLYKOTE L-1668FM is suitable for a wide range of industries, including food packaging, medical sterilization, chemical manufacturing, and battery plant operations. For optimal performance, adhere to the equipment manufacturer's maintenance and oil specifications, and regularly monitor oil condition through sample analysis to detect potential contamination.
