ROLLER CHAIN OILS
Lubricating and Penetrating
Tribology Tech-Lube's powerful penetrating chain oils have been developed for applications where the lubricant penetrates to reach the pins and bushings located within roller chains. Additional Applications include hinges, castors, rollers, bolts, screw assemblies, bushings and cables.
These chain oils also protect equipment by retarding rust corrosion. TRICO chain oils are excellent for aiding in the disassembly of rusted parts. These non-oily, non-greasy formulations eliminate dust, lint and particulate contamination build up and minimize wear, noise, chain stretch and untimely equipment failure. TRICO oils are easily applied by brush, drip or automatic lubricators.

TRICO WR- Water Resistant Chain Oil
Proven to extend chain life operating in wet conditions. Penetrates and leaves a water resistant, protective film on chain and part surfaces.
- Anti-wear protection
- Excellent rust and corrosion protection
- Water Resistant
TRICO 100 Light
TRICO 200 Medium
TRICO 300 Heavy
Synthetic Roller Chain Oils fortified with a highly concentrated package of submicron sized molybdenum disulfide. Maximum and rapid penetration into pins, rollers and bushings, reducing wear and chain stretch.
- Cleans
- Eliminates contamination buildup
- Penetrates to loosen and free stiff chains
- Quickly produces flexible chain action
- Eliminates Chain Stick/Slip Motion
TRICO-101
This formula, similar to TRICO 100, uses a concentrated package of PTFE for maximum cleanliness. It leaves a clear, dry film of protective lubrication that does not drip, run or stain.
- Available in Aerosol
SYNTEMP 2000
A synergistic combination of high viscosity synthetic fluids provide an adhesive and anti-fling lubricating film for multiple applications. Effective spreading, wetting and penetrating properties insure complete chain assembly protection. SYNTEMP 2000’s high load, high temperature protection eliminates chain wear and reduces energy consumption.
- Low Volatility
- Residue-free
- Exceptional anti-wear protection
- High temperature applications
- High viscosity
- Available in Aerosol
Typical application SYNTEMP 2000
Transport and Conveying Chain Track Assemblies • Wire Rope and Cable• High Speed Chains • Slide • Ways and Guides • Pins and Bushings • Bearings
Typical Properties are noted without penetrant (except Pour Point).
NOTE:
TRICO 100, 101, 200, 300 should not be applied to hot chains above 150°F/65°C.
The penetrant is designed to evaporate after application.
After evaporation, TRICO 100, 200, and 300 can be used at elevated temperatures, not to exceed 235°F/113°C.
Typical Properties are noted without penetrant (except Pour Point).
