Marine Industry
Driven by the recent Vessel General Permit (VGP) requirements established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the use of an Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL) for all oil to sea interfaces for vessels unless technically infeasible has come to the forefront of the Marine Industry.
We provide great, on time services to our valuable customers.
The intent of this requirement is to reduce the environmental impact of lubricant discharges on the aquatic ecosystem by increasing the use of environmentally acceptable lubricants for vessels operating in waters of the United States.
Environmentally acceptable lubricants are defined in the VGP as lubricants that are biodegradable, minimally toxic and are not bioaccumulative.
We offer the following VGP greases and lubricants applications for the Marine Industry:
Wire Rope:
Steel wire rope is subject to not only a corrosive environment but extreme friction and heat generation. Choosing the right lubricant can prevent corrosion and abrasion, drastically lengthening the life of the rope.
Recommended Product:
JAX VG-Plus® Wire Rope Lube 00
- Low toxicity
- Excellent load carrying capability
- Protection against rust and corrosion
Rudder Bearings/Deck Equipment:
Using the right multi-purpose grease for plain and roller bearings used in fairleads, cranes, and rudders that meets EAL requirements and outperforms other greases on the market is key.
Recommended Product:
JAX VG-Plus® 2
- Increased Component Life
- Corrosion Resistance
- Longer Maintenance Intervals
Gearboxes:
Demand for gearboxes that exceed the highest standards of operational reliability and efficiency needed in ocean-going vessels continues to increase in the marine industry along with the need for a lubricant that can withstand these harsh and demanding environments.
Chemicals Global offers a biodegradable gear oil manufactured by JAX Inc which exceeds the demanding requirements of the Marine Industry.
