Canning lubricant

Shell Cassida Fluid GLE 100, 150 and 220 are fully synthetic, high performance, anti-wear gear lubricants which were specifically designed for use in the food and beverage canning industry.

They are based on a careful blend of synthetic fluids and selected additives chosen for their ability to meet the stringent requirements of the food and beverage industry.

The fluids can be applied to the lubrication of rotary can seaming machines equipped with enclosed (recirculating) and total loss systems, along with circulating and bearing oil systems where contamination with water or food juice can occur, such as citrus juice extraction machines.

The lubricant has good separation properties from water in oil recirculating and filtration systems, as well as neutral odour and taste, and good anti-oxidant properties that resist the formation of deposits and sludge even at elevated temperatures resulting in long oil and equipment life.
