MOLYKOTE® Lubricants for Mining

Performance Lubrication for Mining

In the mining industry, long-term operational equipment is crucial. Therefore, a high-performing solution that ensures long-term reliability and efficiency is a necessity. A combination of heavy-duty machinery, harsh outdoor environmental conditions, and the effort of literally moving the earth contributes to challenges in running a successful mining operation. Robust products that can handle one of the harshest industrial applications on the planet are needed.

Extreme Lubricants for Extreme Conditions 


To meet the demands of the mining industry, DuPont manufactures a range of high-performance materials, including the MOLYKOTE® performance lubricants. This portfolio of compounds, greases, anti-friction coatings, and pastes is uniquely prepared to face the downtime and repair problems surrounding equipment and excavator maintenance. Few solutions in the mining lubricants market today can withstand the challenges in mining operations. 

  • Protection from extreme environments
  • Capacity & stability under heavy load
  • Environmentally friendly 
  • Performance under dusty conditions
  • Ability to meet & exceed OEM specifications
  • Sustainable & eco-friendly solutions

Mining Equipment Failures 


There are many potential root causes for equipment failure within the mining industry, all of which can be incredibly costly and lead to lengthy repair periods. The most common causes of mining equipment failure are operator errors, insufficient preventative maintenance cycles, excessive maintenance, and failure to inspect and monitor performance continuously. To combat lengthy repair times and costs associated with downtime and repairs, it is critical to optimize standard operating procedures in tandem with providing operators with adequate training (complex excavators, trucks, and front loaders).

Tried, Tested, and True Lubrication 


Any lubrication manager or equipment operator can rest easy; these products have proven performance and are backed by a solid reputation of technical expertise and innovation with the DuPont MOLYKOTE® team. MOLYKOTE® is proven to vastly reduce downtime, increase maintenance cycles, improve inspection pass rates, and more when using a MOLYKOTE® Smart Lubricant in place of failing mining lubricants.
