SHANS-5/4 lubricating compound for glass forming machines

A lubricant for blank and finish moulds, neck rings and plungers of I.S. machines in B&B, P&B and NNPB processes. In composition and mode of action, the product matches KLEENMOLD 202 and ACMOS 48-405.* Made to technical specification TU 0254-035-56194358-2015.

About the product

SHANS-5/4 is a lubricating compound based on mineral oil with graphite, sulphur and a package of functional additives. It is designed to lubricate blank and finish moulds of glass forming machines in the production of glassware.

It provides reliable lubrication in all main glass forming processes: blow and blow (B&B), wide-mouth press and blow (P&B) and narrow neck press and blow (NNPB).

It is made to technical specification TU 0254-035-56194358-2015.

SHANS-5/4 was developed in Russia as a replacement for imported lubricants for the glass industry. In composition and mode of action, it matches KLEENMOLD 202 and ACMOS 48-405.

SHANS-5/4 advantages

Less downtime
Reduces how often moulds need cleaning and maintenance and increases overall line productivity.
Versatility
Suitable for finish moulds, blank moulds and neck rings, for different types of I.S. machines and all main forming processes: B&B, P&B, NNPB.
Stable at high temperatures
Keeps its properties in the extreme conditions of glass production: flash point 210 °C, fire point 295 °C.
Less mould wear
Even lubrication minimises friction and wear of blank and finish moulds, plungers and neck rings, and extends the life of expensive tooling.
Clean release
The glass gob releases easily from the hot mould, which reduces the risk of defects and rejects on the line.
