LITHIUM COMPLEX GREASE
Exceed many of the properties of simple lithium soap greases and also have higher dropping points, allowing
the greases to be used at higher temperatures due to the presence of a second thickener component. Mechanical
stability lithium complex greases exhibit good resistance to shear, this property makes lithium complex greases
popular for use in a heavy duty applications.

LICOM 2 & 3
LITHIUM COMPLEX GREASE

BALMEROL LICOM Grease is a multifunctional high temperature grease formulated with a high dropping
point lithium complex soap system and specially developed synergistic additives for lubrication up to 160ºC
under normal to heavy loads. The complex soap incorporated in the greases enables it to retain its structure even
at high temperatures and high loads, thereby reducing leakage and enhancing component life with extension of re
lubrication intervals.
BALMEROL LICOM has excellent shear stability and good surface adhesion. It is non-ageing and is highly resistant
to cold and hot water, heat, dust, rust, corrosion and oxidation.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
BALMEROL LICOM is suitable for lubrication of all types of industrial bearings operating under higher than ambi-
ent temperature conditions under heavy loads. It is particularly beneficial in high temperature applications where
use of conventional greases calls for frequent re lubrication. Typical applications include kiln car rollers, hot air fan
bearings, electric motor bearings and clutch release bearings in the metallurgical, ceramic, cement and electrical
industry.
Due to superior load bearing capacity, low coefficient of friction, excellent anti wear properties and better struc-
tural stability, BALMEROL LICOM shows considerably better performance as compared to conventional and non-
soap greases for high temperature applications.

SOLUBLE CUTTING OIL
The main functions of a cutting oil are to lubricate between the cutting tool and the workpiece and to act
as a coolant by rapidly removing the heat generated. When diluted with water, soluble cutting produce
stable emulsions which have excellent cooling ability and the necessary balance of lubricity and extreme
pressure characteristics required.

PROTOSOL MC
SOLUBLE CUTTING OIL

B ALMEROL PROTOSOL MC is emulsifiable oil specially developed for metal cutting operations. Balmerol Proto-
sol MC meets IS: 1115-1986 and is easily emulsified in hard or soft water with minimum agitation. It has high
emulsion and PH stability, even at temperatures up to 500C, thereby ensuring uniform properties during prolonged
recirculation. Balmerol Protosol MC shows no change in characteristics upon freeze-thawing and has excellent
cleanliness and burnoff properties. Balmerol Protosol MC has good antifrictional and load-bearing properties to
reduce tool wear and improved surface finish. This superior performance is achieved at lower emulsion strength
thereby reducing oil consumption.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
BALMEROL PROTOSOL MC is suitable for various cutting operations of ferrous and nonferrous metals. The excel-
lent cooling and lubrication properties at chip/tool interface ensures long tool life and improved surface finish in
machining operations using 4 - 5 % aqueous emulsion while a more dilute emulsion is suitable for grinding opera-
tions. In order to achieve maximum benefits, the optimum emulsion strength for a specific application area may
be determined through the process of extended trials. Balmerol Protosol MC concentrate / high strength emulsion
has good rust inhibitive properties and is recommended as an effective temporary corrosion protective during
intermediate idle periods in multiple stage metal cutting operations.

• Offers long oil life and good control of oil consumption.
• Provides excellent Lube/Fuel compatibility.
APPLICATIONS
Balmerol Protoshakti 124, 204, 304 & 404 is recommended for use in medium speed trunk piston diesel engines
for power generation and main propulsion engines on deep sea vessels. It is also suitable for use in main propul-
sion engines on coastal and river ships. It is also recommended for application in the latest model high power two
and four cycle diesel engines.

NATURAL GAS ENGINE OILS
Natural gas burns hotter than diesel fuel or gasoline, lubricants for natural gas engines can operate under severe
heat stress. Natural gas is a ‘dry’ fuel that needs to be used with lubricating oil that produces ‘oil ash’ as a byprod-
uct of combustion.The classification system used for automotive engine oils (gasoline and diesel) doesn’t apply to
natural gas-burning engines. CNG LUBE 30 & 40
NATURAL GAS ENGINE OILS
B ALMEROL CNG LUBE Series are high quality gas engine oil, which are suitable for engines of compression igni-
tion and spark ignitied type using natural gas fuel.
PROPERTIES
Balmerol CNG LUBE Series are designed to have excellent oxidation and nitration stability to prevent deposit for-
mation, corrosion and scuffing and also neutralize acids from combustion process. This lubricant application will
give an optimal protection for daily non-stop operating engines.
BENEFITS
Balmerol CNG LUBE Series offers the following benefits:
• Very high resistance against nitration and oxidation.
• Prevent deposit formation in piston groove and undercrown also at combustion chamber.
• Having optimum ash level (0.4 %wt) to prevent wearing out in valve and valve seat, which can cause valve
guthering or torching.
• Provide maximum protection against corrosion, wearing out and scuffing.
• Provide maximum protection against sparkplug fouling.
• Having low evaporation level and good compatibility with various type of seal.
APPLICATIONS
Balmerol CNG LUBE can be applied to four stroke engines, either naturally aspirated or turbocharged type such as
Caterpillar, Waukesha, Wartsila and Dresser Rand, which are operating as gas gathering rotary compressor, main
line compressor station, generator set, co-generator, etc.
Balmerol CNG LUBE Series can also be applied to dual fuel engines; using diesel fuel and natural gas for stationary
application.
Balmerol CNG LUBE Series are not recommended for two stroke gas engine.
AVAILABILITY
BALMEROL CNG LUBE 30 & 40 are normally available in 200 liter and 20 liter packing’s only.

CNG LUBE ASHLESS 30 & 40

NATURAL GAS ENGINE OILS

B ALMEROL CNG LUBE ASHLESS Series are gas engine lubricant that formulated from high quality base oil (low
carbon formation Tendency) with ashless detergent dispersant, antiwear and antioxidant aditives to reduce
deposits in engine and exhaust port.

PROPERTIES
Balmerol CNG LUBE ASHLESS Series meet API CC and the requirements of two stroke gas engine made by Ajax,
Clark, Cooper-Bessemer and Fairbanks-Morse engine.

BENEFITS
Balmerol CNG LUBE ASHLESS 30 & 40 offers the following benefits:
• Maintain engine cleanliness, intake and exhaust port from deposit formation.
• Prevent ring sticking and deposit formation in piston groove.
• Very effective in preventing wear of piston ring and cylinder liner.
• Having high resistance to oxidation and nitration.
• Prevent preignition and spark plug fouling.

APPLICATIONS
Balmerol CNG LUBE ASHLESS Series are recommended for all type of two stroke gas engines operating at low and
medium speed where low ash or ashless oils are required.
Balmerol CNG LUBE ASHLESS Series are intended for two stroke gas engines naturally aspirated type or turbocharg-
erd type, operating on clean gas.
Balmerol CNG LUBE ASHLESS Series are recommended to be used in four stroke gas engine.
