Omega Superior Chain Lubricant

Omega 646 is a fluid lubricant engineeredexclusively for chains. It employs the high technology originally derived from the space age in which a super micronized solid lubricant – moly – is used to complement a high-grade, refined paraffinic oil in the lubrication of chains.
Multitude Of Maintenance Uses:
Omega 646 Fluid Lubricant for Chains is versatile. It promotes chain and parts life.
Prevents Metal-To-Metal Contact:
Omega 646 absolutely prevents any metal-tometal contact in the absence of hydrodynamic film. Under load, the micronized platelets present in Omega 646's moly, slide easily upon one another to prevent metal contact. No other conventional lubricant can do so. Omega 646's specialized moly will keep lubricating up to an approximately limit of 750°F (400°C). Therefore Omega 646 can be used in the most demanding, tough and high temperature chains without breakdown or deterioration.
Chain Lubrication Problems:
Conventional chain oils and greases lubricate by separating the load surfaces with a hydrodynamic film. This film cannot always be achieved in actual "in use" situations. Formation of this film is a function of many variables such as lubricant viscosity, surface speed and applied load. When speeds are too low, loads are too high, or there is an improper match of lubricant to viscosity to speed and load; and a plethora of other variables, metal-to-metal contact occurs to increase friction and subsequent excessive wear.
These conditions are not uncommon. They exist in normal operation such as during machinery start up, shutdown, during running-in of a replaced part and all through the operation of many heavily-loaded, slow-moving parts prevalent in chain driven machinery. A phenomena known as "chatter" or "stick slip" occurs and there is no lubrication between the chain and gear wheels!
Running In:
Every new metal surface under a microscope is actually a series of valleys and peaks. When two such surfaces come into contact, only the peaks meet. Therefore these very small areas bear the entire load. These peaks "cold weld" together, then shear apart when movement occurs. Omega 646 -when applied to new parts before operating -can prevent actual contact between the peaks and prevent galling, scoring and catastrophic parts failure.
The moly in Omega 646 permits the surfaces to conform to each other by plastic deformation rather than potentially destructive welding and shearing. Omega 646 permits optimum run-in lubrication for new machine parts.
Slow-Moving Parts:
Ordinary lubricants fail to achieve a hydrodynamic film between slow moving parts under high load. Omega 646 will separate such surfaces even at rest and its low coefficient of friction prevents chatter and stick-slip operation.
Preventing Fretting Corrosion:
In limited motion machinery, vibration prevents the forming of hydro-dynamic lubricant film between parts. Conventional lubricants literally vibrate off or migrate away. Omega 646's moly remains in place, reducing metal-to-metal contact and fretting corrosion.
Anti-Friction Bearings:
When bearings overheat, ordinary grease components thin out excessively. Omega 646's moly will continue to protect such surfaces.
Superior for Chain Lubrication
Omega 646 is formulated from the ground up with expensive, high-performance constituents. The base suspension lubricant is a high quality, refined paraffinic which displays superior lubrication action and anti-oxidation qualities.
Special viscosity improvers give Omega 646 a stability to temperature fluctuations for lubrication superior to all conventional chain lubricants. It will markedly impr
