227FG
Performance LubricantsCorrugator Application

A Korean corrugator reduces equipment
downtime and saves on maintenance costs byswitching lubricants.
Korean manufacturer of corrugated products
cuts required maintenance cycle by 50%
A major manufacturer of corrugated products
located in Korea wanted to reduce the frequency ofequipment maintenance to minimize downtime inits busy production environment.

The Challenge
The manufacturer needed a lubricant thatwould provide superior lubricity despite theharsh operating environment of the application.
Specifically, the lubricant needed to withstandoperating temperatures of 195–200 ˚C(383–392 ˚F) and not leak under the high load andspeed of the corrugator. In addition, the lubricant
needed to be compatible with the metals andelastomers used in the corrugating equipment andnot cause carbon residue build-up.

The Solution
After switching to Corrugator Krytox™ 227FG*, afood grade lubricant featuring superior performance,
the manufacturer was able to schedule equipment
maintenance every six months, instead of every threemonths, without experiencing any bearing failures.
Corrugator Krytox™ 227FG grease is compatible withmost metals and commonly used elastomers. It provides
long-term wear resistance and thermal stability at thehigh temperatures used in the corrugating equipment andwill not carbonize.
Key Advantages• The manufacturer was able to schedule required
maintenance twice a year, instead of four times a year,
because Corrugator Krytox™ 227FG grease provides
superior lubricity to the bearings and no carbonization.
• The technical team from Chemours and the local
distributor provided valuable technical supportservices.
• Corrugator Krytox™ 227FG is NF135660 registeredand NSF H-1 safe for incidental food-contact
applications.
