# Industrial transport

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

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.

## Processes
- Fifth-wheel and mechanism lubrication
- Chains and conveyor belts
- Material-handling equipment
- Maintenance in dusty or hot environments

## Challenges
- Friction and seizure in mechanisms
- Contamination from dust and heat
- Conventional lubricants that fail or soil equipment
- Hard-to-reach points for frequent greasing

## Advantages
- Long-lasting dry lubrication
- Resistance in rough service
- Less dust attraction vs oils
- Application at high-wear points
