Description

MOLYVALVE 5 is a fully synthetic grease specifically formulated for the lubrication of gate and plug valves
operating in the petrochemical industry.

The combination of synthetic base fluid, solid lubricants, corrosion inhibitors and stabilisers ensures that MOLYVALVE 5 has maximum resistance to chemicals encountered in
the exploration and production of crude oil and gas. The product acts as a lubricant to the valve components
and will assist in maintaining or regaining sealing performance to minimise leakage.

Conventional valve lubricants can be dissolved or degraded by materials such as hydrocarbon solvents, gas
condensates, H2S and mineral acids such as HCl.

MOLYVALVE 5 possess outstanding resistance to most chemicals used in the oil and gas exploration and
production process. It will lubricate and protect valve components ensuring smooth, reliable operation and
resist wash-out minimizing cavity contamination.

MOLYVALVE 5 is suitable for use on most gate and plug valves across a wide operating temperature range
of -20°F to 500°F (-29°C to 260°C).
Note: MOLYVALVE 5 is not recommended for use on floating seat ball valves. The recommended product is
MOLYVALVE 1

Features

• Outstanding resistance to exploration and production chemicals (hydrocarbons, gas condensate, H2S, mineral acids etc)

• Adhesive, tenacious film ensures maximum lubrication and protection

• Excellent lubrication and sealing properties

• Wide operating temperature range

Application

MOLYSLIP MOLYVALVE 5 should be used in accordance with the valve manufacturer’s instructions and lubrication schedule.

MOLYSLIP MOLYVALVE 5 is designed to be injected into the valve body by means of a high-pressure lubricator. For general use MOLYSLIP MOLYVALVE 5 can be applied manually or by using suitable application equipment e.g. grease gun, keg pump, automatic systems suitable for handling NLGI 2 greases.

As with all greases used for the first time, check compatibility with the grease used previously and if necessary, purge prior to application.

‘Vaporol, you spray it as best as you can into the work but the vapours are actually doing their work and getting into all the crevices, it’s kind of like magic really.’

MSS Spray forms a near-dry ﬁlm, safeguarding our roller bearings from signiﬁcant build-up. I would highly recommend this product.

ARVINA FM2 is an excellent gearbox grease. Purchased to refill the gearbox on a kitchen mixer, which requires food safe grease. I coated the planetary track and gear. The result was the mixer sounded quieter. I recommend this grease for similar applications.

I looked around and found Foodslip, a UK made food safe grease. It doesn’t smell and is a translucent light brown colour. Very happy with it and nice to know it isn’t toxic. Great for bearings on food mixers.

Trusted Customer

Never has my metal drilling, tapping, milling & turning been so delightful. My parts are perfectly formed and my tooling is lasting longer

Martin O.

Super products. I have used them for 40 odd years. A little bit goes a long way.

Prepare to be able to cut anything you want like butter. Life-changing. Only need a tiny drop to work miracles!
