Penetrating Lubricants for Chain
For use with roller chain and other moving metal parts, these thin lubricants cut through dirt, grease, and rust, withstand heavy loads, and resist wear.
Lubricants with graphite can handle high temperatures. Lubricants with moly (molybdenum disulfide) withstand high loads and have excellent wear resistance. Lubricants with copper can be applied to ovens and furnaces while they are on. Lubricants with water can be applied at temperatures up to 450° F.
DuPont Molykote C-40 High Temperature Chain is designed for ovens and works best at operating temperatures 350° F and above, but it cannot be applied at temperatures above 250° F.

Dry-Film Lubricants for Chain
A high load-carrying capacity makes these lubricants good for use on chain and moving metal parts. They dry to form a film that lubricates without attracting dust.
Lubricants with graphite have good heat and excellent wear resistance. Lubricants with PTFE can be used with most plastics and are chemically inert.
Chain Oil
Thin enough to penetrate inside chain pins and links, yet tacky so it stays in place, use this oil to lubricate chain and roller chain.
Viscosity is the thickness of an oil. The higher the grade, the thicker the oil, and the less it flows.

Open Gear and Chain Grease
Tackier than gear box grease, this grease sticks to open gears and roller chain. It resists moisture for corrosion protection and can lubricate under heavy loads.
NLGI viscosity grade is a rating of a grease's consistency. NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter. Synthetic-oil-based grease lasts longer than mineral-oil-based grease and withstands a wider range of temperatures.
Grease with PTFE thickener has good heat, moisture, and oxidation resistance.
Grease with moly (molybdenum disulfide) has excellent resistance to wear and can withstand high-load and high-pressure applications.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range. Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry. Nonmelting grease can be used at temperatures above the maximum temperature briefly, but then will break down more quickly.
Chemours Krytox™ GPL 215 withstands high loads and pressure. It handles extreme temperature swings, resists aggressive chemicals, such as acids and oxygen, and is long lasting with an indefinite shelf life.
