CASSIDA GREASE MD 2 is a high performance
silicone lubricant specially developed for the grease
lubrication and sealing of tapes, valves and fittings with
EPDM seals (ethylene-propylene-diene rubber) in the
food and beverage processing and packaging industry,
with good resistance to hot water, steam and disinfectant
solutions.
It is based on a very stable synthetic thickener and base fluids
chosen for their ability to meet the stringent requirements of the food
and beverage industry.
Registered by NSF (Class H1) for use where there is potential for
incidental food contact. Produced according to FLT Quality
Standards, in facilities where HACCP audit and Good Manufacturing
Practice have been implemented and form part of the quality and
hygiene management systems ISO 9001 and ISO 21469.
• Outstanding resistance to washout with cold and hot
water, steam, disinfectant solutions and organic solvents
• Good adhesive properties
• Neutral odour and taste
• Does not affect bear foam stability
• Excellent rubber and elastomer compatibility including
EPDM seals
• Free of mineral oil components
CASSIDA GREASE MD 2 is not compatible with other
greases. All equipment must be carefully cleaned before
applying CASSIDA GREASE MD 2.
• Lubricant and sealing grease for taps, valves and
fittings with EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene
rubber) seals
• Recommended for the lubrication of all sorts of taps,
flow meters and fittings used for the handling of
water, drinks and beer, including drum filling inflow
valves
• Generally applicable for tap cock or spindle valves
and for rubber seals such as sleeves, membranes,
O-rings seals and lip seals
• Recommended for use in sterilisers
• Not recommended for use in high speed bearings
or in heavily loaded machinery
