Bio Chisel Paste for Breaker Use in Environmentally Sensitive Applications

Used to grease the wear bushings in hydraulic breakers, Epiroc’s new Bio chisel paste helps prevent bushing wear and prolong working tool life. The formulation is based on special synthetic esters that are easily biodegradable and is approved by the European commission for use in environmentally sensitive applications.

Inside a hydraulic breaker, the ambient working temperature reaches up to 1100°C under extreme load. In these conditions the standard greases available in the market will liquefy and disappear. Without adequate lubrication, bushings suffer accelerated wear, thereby increasing the cost of breaker operation.

Tailor-made for hydraulic breakers, Epiroc Bio chisel paste gives excellent performance across a wide range of temperatures, from –30°C up to +1100°C.

Epiroc Bio chisel paste has high load carrying characteristics with very good separation capacity. It helps reduce breaker operating costs by reducing bushing wear and working tool breakage. High water resistance makes it suitable for underwater applications, and the product offers a high level of corrosion protection.

For the breaker to benefit from the full protection offered by Epiroc Bio chisel paste, lubrication should be performed at regular intervals and care should be taken not to over-lubricate.

Epiroc Bio chisel paste is suitable for automatic lubrication on Epiroc hydraulic breakers with ContiLube™ II Micro or ContiLube™ II, or for manual greasing with a grease gun on Epiroc or any other breakers.
