Railroad service Bio lubricants

High performance petroleum and biodegradable rail lubricants for rail curve protection, use on rail switches and turnouts

Rail Curve Lubricants

Molylub Biodegradable lubricants in the railroad industry are specialized, environmentally friendly, and biodegradable lubricants designed to reduce friction, wear, and corrosion in rolling trains and infrastructure tracks while minimizing environmental impact. These products are typically derived from renewable resources—such as vegetable ester oils or synthetic esters—and are designed to break down into harmless components if they leak or are released into the environment, making them suitable for areas with strict environmental regulations

Molylub railways products group flagship is our Molylub BioRail 1G. Featuring graphite to dampen sound and improve performance, Molylub BioRail G also contains organic friction modifiers and special polymers providing strong adhesion and water resistance. This combination leads to a superb high film strength product that has great anti-wear, load carrying, and low water washout properties. This product is readily biodegradable so its use on rail curves in any environment will not compromise your sustainability efforts and will improve your organization’s environmental synergy.

Molylub BioRail 1 G series railways curve grease

Specialty lubricants from Molylub for train maintenance and infrastructure prove their worth worldwide every day. They include solutions for many lubrication points in railway engineering, from lubrication of traction systems and doors to axle gears and wheel flanges, bogies, brakes, and many other components.

Molylub BioRail 1 G is a biodegradable rail curve lubricant with graphite, that proves that you don’t have to compromise performance in order to be environmentally responsible. Designed to provide high film strength and withstand heavy load applications. BioRail has proven itself, not only in the laboratory, but where it counts – on the rail. Its stable chemistry ensures that it pumps in the coldest climates and stands up at the wiping bar in all weather conditions. This lubricant provides outstanding gauge-face lubrication on rail curves.

Rail Curves and Switch Plates grease

Molylub BioRail 1 G features high load carrying and anti-wear characteristics along with low water washout properties. In addition, this product contains organic friction modifiers, special polymers for water resistance and adhesion, and graphite to dampen sound and improve overall performance.

• Readily biodegradable
• Contains special polymers for water resistance and adhesion
• High load carrying performance
• Low water washout

Molylub BioRail 1 G Rail Curve Greases contain advanced extreme-pressure additives to guard against wheel and rail wear. Both the high-viscosity and low-viscosity formulations are available with added molybdenum disulphide for enhanced protection. All formulations reduce friction and wear between the track and wheel flange, and their lubricity helps improve train fuel efficiency.

The greases are formulated to resist port plugging in wiping bars and provide longer carry down track from the lubricator. They also offer better gauge face coefficient of friction and less migration to the top of the rail than petroleum-based grease.
