What applications is the Bathan KF3 high-temperature grease made for?

Product description

  • Soap-free high-temperature grease for extreme conditions
  • Ideal for highly loaded plain and roller bearings
  • Usable all year round – even in dust, moisture, and high temperatures
  • Excellent sealing properties, prevents deficiency symptoms

BATHAN KF 3 is a soap-free, bentonite-based high-temperature grease specially developed for demanding industrial applications and highly loaded bearings. The grease is extremely temperature-resistant, can withstand high loads, and is particularly suitable for machines and systems in the glass, cement, or pellet industry, as well as for tunnel kiln cars and similar high-temperature processes. Its strong sealing effect reliably protects against wear and lubricant deficiency – even under extreme environmental and temperature conditions.

Mode of action

BATHAN KF 3 contains proven high-performance ceramic, whose particles smooth metal surfaces and thus significantly reduce wear. This increases the load-bearing capacity of the bearings, improves lubricant efficiency, and noticeably extends lubrication intervals. The grease can be pumped through long lines and ensures reliable emergency lubrication, even at very high temperatures or under heavy loads.

Properties & advantages

  • Maximum system lifespan / Ceramic technology significantly reduces wear. Ideal for highly loaded bearings and extreme temperatures.
  • Less maintenance, lower costs / Extended lubrication intervals and a stable lubricating film save time, material, and downtime costs.
  • Reliable in extreme conditions / Whether heat, dust, or moisture – KF 3 lubricates reliably and prevents lubricant deficiency in demanding industrial sectors.
  • Highest operational safety / Emergency lubrication is guaranteed even at very high temperatures – for trouble-free system operation.
  • Easy handling / Easy to pump through long lines and universally applicable in a wide variety of high-temperature processes.
