Shear Spray Lubricants
TotalEnergies shear spray lubricants are designed to provide extended shear blade life, excellent shear cut, corrosion protection, reduced shear marks and cost-effective performance. These features translate into easy maintenance of the shear spray system. Different operating and water quality parameters primarily dictate what type of product will offer optimal lubrication. TotalEnergies has developed several types of shear oils – each with the same objective to provide optimal lubrication while reducing maintenance.
| Products | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| KLEENKUT 2050 | Pale yellow liquid, vegetable / mineral oil blend | Requires an accurate dosing system and treated water, ratio 1:750–1:1100 and higher (cost effective) |
| KLEENKUT 2060 | Pale yellow liquid, vegetable / mineral oil blend | Requires an accurate dosing system and treated water, ratio 1:750–1:1250 and higher, cost effective & clean shear mechanism |
| GLASSCUT BIO 300 | Yellow liquid, mineral / synthetic oil blend | Good for various qualities of water, ratio 1:300–1:600 (for recycling/recirculating systems) |
Epoxy-Based Delivery Coatings
These products provide a low coefficient of friction coating to allow the gob to be easily transported to the blank. They also insulate the gob from excessive heat loss. Kleenmold coatings are strongly bonded to a surface effectively eliminating the transfer of particulate matter to the glass. To ensure consistent quality and high efficiency, a gob must reach the mold equipment at a constant speed, without checks and inclusions. Kleenmold coatings for delivery equipment can minimize defects that can reduce overall cost and improve quality.
| Products | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| KLEENMOLD BASE 10 A | 2-part, standard graphite /epoxy delivery coating | Standard product with good performance (pot time approx. 30 min) |
| KLEENMOLD BASE 26 | 2-part, solid lubricants dispersed in epoxy resin delivery coating | Improved product with longer pot time and life on delivery system (pot time approx. 60 min) |
| KLEENMOLD BASE 300 | 2-part, HT epoxy / graphite delivery coating | Designed to provide longest life on deflectors (pot time approx. 75 min) |
Scoop Oils (Delivery Lubricants)
Scoop Oils (Delivery Lubricants) Kleenmold scoop oils reduce COF (Coefficient of Friction) so gob slides easily and on time into the blank. Our products do not transfer to the gob and are designed to keep the delivery equipment clean. Like our coatings, lubricants for delivery equipment can minimize defects that can reduce overall cost and improve quality.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| GLASSFLOW GOLD | Pale yellow liquid, mineral oil-based | White oil mixture with paraffinic; very good performance |
| GLASSFLOW XD 004 | Clear, transparent liquid; USP H-1 | Pharmaceutical oil with very good performance; very clean |
| GLASSFLOW SUPREME | Clear, transparent liquid; synthetic | Synthetic oil with absolutely no residues; excellent performance |
Blank and Mold Precoats
Precoats are applied in many glass plants to blank and mold equipment to facilitate the start-up after a job change. Kleenmold precoats deposit a tightly bonded lubricating film of graphite on mold equipment surfaces which provide excellent gob loading and parison release. This helps minimize lost production by allowing operators to focus on fine-tuning various aspects of production and to check bottle quality, rather than swabbing.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| KLEENMOLD PRECOAT DT 4 | Water-based start-up coating in an aerosol can | Convenient aerosol can for easy application; non-flammable; does not contain CFCs |
| KLEENMOLD PRECOAT 409 | Water-based start-up coating in a plastic jar; apply with a Binks Gun | Water-based precoat for blanks, molds, neck rings, and other related equipment used. It is a one-component product available in a Binks Gun compatible plastic jar |
Blank and Mold Swabbing Compounds
Kleenmold offers a variety of different swabbing compounds. Kleenmold swabbing compounds contain graphite, wetting agents and additives to penetrate into tight surfaces, providing uniform lubrication and release that eliminates checks and build-up.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Kleenmold 99 | Black, paste | Suggested for hotter applications, dry swab, perfume /cosmetics; also in molds / long swab cycle |

| Kleenmold 202 | Black, semi-fluid liquid | NNPB, HT, beer bottles, champagne bottles |
Ring Dopes
Kleenmold ring dopes are designed to penetrate into ring surfaces and deposit a thin, tightly-bonded uniform graphite film. Our ring dopes contain special graphite, wetting agents and additives designed to provide lubrication and release, eliminating checks and reducing build-up.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| RING DOPE E | Light black oil | General purpose |
| RING DOPE 46 | Light black oil | Recommended for NNPB |
Robot Sprayable Lubricants
These lubricants are formulated to be applied by a robot to provide good blank and mold wetting ability, to improve cleanliness and to prolong the service life of the mold using a high purity graphite system. Robokleen lubricants work with various type of forming processes (BB, PB, NNPB) and with all sizes of bottles from small to large. Custom-made robot spray lubricants are available on request.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |

Mold Touch-up Compounds
Kleenmold offers a wide variety of different mold touch-up compounds. These compounds contain special graphite, wetting agents and additives to penetrate into tight surfaces, providing uniform lubrication and release that eliminates checks and build-up to maximize production efficiency. The touch-up compounds below contain different additives and physical properties.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| MOLAC X | Black, semi-fluid | General use for engravings, decorations on mold side |

Synthetic I.S. Machine Oils
I.S. machine oils are specially formulated to meet all the lubricating requirements of an I.S. machine. They provide lubrication, protect against corrosion, minimize build-up and provide easy, trouble-free start-ups under severe conditions. The extreme temperature conditions found in glass forming operations can cause machine lubricants to breakdown and form deposits, which can interfere with the proper synchronization of an I.S. machine mechanism. TotalEnergies has specially engineered many synthetic I.S. machine oils for specific plants in different locations. These oils were created with a vast array of different properties.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| KLEENOIL 440 | ISO 220 – 100% synthetic lubricating oil | Most widely used; high cycle time; clean; neutral effect on seals; very good overall performance |
| KLEENOIL 450 | ISO 220 – 100% synthetic lubricating oil | Widely used, especially in hot conditions (high thermal oxidation stability); very good overall performance |
| KLEENOIL 220 | ISO 220 – 100% synthetic lubricating oil | Cost-effective machine oil with good performance |
Conveyors and Chains
TotalEnergies has developed lubricants designed for high-temperature environments and a wide range of manufacturing uses.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|

Cold End
Cold end bottle lubricants protect and lubricate bottles so they can be moved smoothly, without damage, with high-speed handling equipment from a massed group of bottles on the lehr into single lines for inspection on through packaging. When the bottles reach the customer’s plant, they will be unpacked, cleaned, filled, labeled, and repacked. There will, of course, be glass-to-glass contact during all these processes and efforts must be taken to keep damage at a minimum.
| Product | General Characteristics | Performance Characteristics / Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| GLASSKOTE SC 100 E | Dispersion of polyethylene in water | Standard cold end coating; good lubricity and bottle appearance; cost effective |
