MOLYKOTE L-1468 FM

Main features

  • ISO VG 68 PAO Chain Oil
  • Freezer-Chain Anti-Wear Lubrication
  • NSF H1 Registration

Product Description

MOLYKOTE® L-1468 FM Synthetic Freezer Chain Oil is an ISO VG 68 synthetic chain lubricant based on polyalphaolefin oil. Developed for low-temperature chain applications, it incorporates rust, oxidation, antiwear, corrosion-inhibiting, tackifier, and pour-point-depressant additives. The amber oil supports dependable lubrication across a broad temperature range while helping the lubricant remain on chain surfaces. It is NSF H1 registered for applications where incidental food contact may occur, making it suitable for freezer chains and food-processing equipment when used in accordance with applicable registration and equipment requirements.

Key features

  • Low-temperature chain lubrication: Formulated for freezer chains and other low-temperature chain-drive applications.
  • Synthetic PAO technology: Provides oxidation resistance and viscosity stability across a broad temperature range.
  • Multi-functional additive package: Contains rust, oxidation, antiwear, corrosion-inhibiting, tackifier, and pour-point-depressant additives.
  • Chain retention: The tackifier supports adhesion of the lubricant to chain components.
  • Food-processing suitability: NSF H1 registered for incidental food-contact applications.
  • Formulation statement: Contains no intentionally added PTFE or PFAS.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Freezer and cold-storage conveyor chains
  • Low-temperature chain-drive systems
  • Food-processing machinery chains
  • Chain applications requiring an NSF H1 registered ISO VG 68 lubricant
