Steel Production Plants

Specialty lubricants play a vital role in the steel industry by providing effective lubrication and protection for a variety of equipment and machinery.

The steelmaking process is known for its harsh conditions, including process temperatures, abrasive dusts, and high shock loads. At MasterLub, we have developed specialty lubricants to ensure trouble-free operation, minimize wear, and prevent potential failures.

The operating conditions in the CCM casting line are characterized by low speed, high thermal stress and cooling water.

The central lubrication system for the roller bearings of the guide rollers includes difficulties such as the operation of the bearings at low speeds, scale ingress into the bearings, and the pumpability of grease with high base oil viscosity. We support trouble-free production with our product range that will overcome all these difficulties.

Apart from continuous casting, rolling also has its own difficulties.

For hot rolling, the lubricant must have good resistance to high temperatures and process water.

In cold rolling mills, the lubricant must also be resistant to a chemically active emulsion. In cold rolling mills, systems operate at higher speeds. Therefore, higher performance is required from the lubricant for the perfect operation of the system. Thanks to very good wear and corrosion protection and excellent sealing properties, specially produced MasterLub lubricants optimize system performance and operating processes.
