Industrial transport

Graphite and carbon for industrial transport: ESGRAF advises on material selection and application support across Mexico and the Americas.

[ Industry description ]

Graphite lubrication and components for transport and material-handling equipment.

Industrial transport concentrates severe friction points: fifth wheel, chains, guides, and mechanisms exposed to dust or temperature. Graphite as a dry lubricant keeps a film where oils degrade or soil the equipment.

ESGRAF recommends products and application methods based on the equipment and maintenance cycle.
