Long-Lasting Oil Prevents Rust, Corrosion, Plugging & Wear

Monolec® Paper Machine Lubricant is a high-performance paper machine oil specifically formulated to provide thermal oxidation stability and rust and corrosion protection for long oil life. Its detergency prevents carbon deposit buildup and coking to minimize oil system plugging and premature bearing failures. It also provides excellent wear protection, thanks to Monolec, LE’s proprietary wear-reducing additive. Available in three viscosity grades, it is ideally suited for paper machine circulating systems and shoe press applications.

Beneficial Qualities

 N/A Performance
  • Ensures long oil life
  • Prolongs equipment life
  • Minimizes unscheduled downtime
Oxidation, Rust & Corrosion Prevention
  • Achieves precipitate values 15% lower than commercial paper machine oils in Thermal Stability of Hydraulic Oils Test (ASTM D2070)
  • Resists oxidation 20-25% better than commercial paper machine oils
  • Prevents buildup and minimizes deposits caused by exposure to steam heat
