Anion Slick-Bar ®

Improving Costly Maintenance Problems
One Kiln At A Time

Kiln Tire/Shell Lubrication Bars

Our solid slow melting lubricating bars are designed to provide superior lubrication to the tire/shell interface, and minimize wear on major components.

Anion Specialty Chemicals recognizes that one of the largest threats to your business’s production time is kiln downtime. We also know that Slick-Bar® is the best way to affect optimal lubrication performance to this crucial interface between the kiln tire and kiln shell.

Slick-Bar® is recognized around the world as the world’s premier solid lubricant bar that is easily inserted between the kiln tire bore & kiln shell. When inserted, Slick-Bar® goes to work by slowly melting as the kiln is turning, which releases the graphite, copper & other specialty lubricants to the area of application.

Slick-Bar® is used in all of the major manufacturers of rotory kilns & dryers and is a proven solution for your kiln’s preventative maintenance programs. Slick-Bar® works by decreasing the friction on the surface of the kilns filler bars & the riding ring.

The Problems
Our Products Address

The structure of a kiln contains a kiln shell, kiln tires, and tire support pads. It is inevitable that the kiln tires will move respective to the shell as the kiln rotates during operation. If the plane of the tire does not sit perpendicular to the kiln’s rotating axis, the tire’s rotation will slightly differ from the shell’s rotation. This circumstance can ultimately initiate:

The Solution For
Effective Preventive Kiln Maintenance

You can utilize the power of predictive kiln maintenance to protect your kilns from unnecessary wear and tear. Anion Slick-Bar® Kiln Tire Lubricant is a specially formulated blend of graphite, copper flakes and soft metal powders enclosed within a natural carrier. When applied to your kiln, SlickBar® dissipates and simultaneously lubricates both the support pad outside diameter and the kiln tire internal diameter. This in turn:

Anion Slick-Bars® with Special EP Additives

Our solid slow melting lubricating bars incorporate (EP) Extreme Pressure Additives that are unmatched in the industry.

Our solid slow melting lubricating bars incorporate (EP) Extreme Pressure Additives that are unmatched in the industry.

They are designed to provide superior lubrication to the tire/ shell interface and to minimize wear on major components in the most extreme environments. Anion recognizes that kiln downtime is the largest threat to your business’s production time.

We also know that Slick-Bar® is the best way to affect optimal lubrication performance to this crucial interface between the kiln tier and kiln shell.

Slick-Bar® is recognized worldwide as the world’s premier solid lubricant bar that is easily inserted between the link tire bore & kiln shell. when inserted, Slick-Bar® goes to work by slowly melting while the kiln is turning, which releases the graphite, copper & other specialty additives& lubricants to the area of application. 

EP additives work by forming a sacrificial layer that adheres to the metal surface and provides additional protection against wear and friction.

In addition to load-carrying and anti-wear properties, extreme pressure additives provide excellent resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and rust. They help extend the life of the lubricant and equipment by minimizing wear, increasing efficiency, and reducing the risk of equipment failure or damage.

Extreme pressure additives are especially suitable for applications where heavy loads, high temperatures, and
risk of metal-to-metal contact exist, such as gears, bearings, and transmissions. These additives help extend the life of the lubricant and protect components from wear and corrosion. 

Use Slick-Bar® With Wide Kiln Shell Temperature Variances

Kiln shell temperature profiles show that there can be wide temperature ranges that exist at difference points along the length of the kiln. Fortunately, Slick-Bar® meets this challenge by offering a bar that meets all of these tough temperature differences the first time all the time.

The Expectation: How SlickBar® Delivers Easy, Affordable Kiln Preventive Maintenance

Slick-Bar® is the most economical tire/shell melting lubricant available on the market today. Unlike other bars, Slick-Bars® will not flare up and it has an ignition point of over 1100F. It also contains Extreme Pressure additives that provide additional protection against friction and wear. Our Slick-Bars® are used across the globe with hundreds of satisfied customers.

Contact Anion Specialty Chemicals today to find out how proper, consistent use of Slick-Bar® can help prevent kiln support wear and protect your kilns from emergency failures.
