Description:

Petro-Canada’s PETROGLIDE oils are premium quality saw guide oils specially designed and tested for modern multi-blade, gang saws and edgers. PETROGLIDE is formulated to provide optimum tackiness and reduced friction for increased recovery rates and sawmill productivity.

Petro-Canada’s family of PETROGLIDE products starts with the HT purity process to produce a 99.9% pure, crystal clear base oil – some of the purest in the world. By removing the impurities that can hinder the performance in competitors’ saw guide oils, and blending in our specialty additives, Petroglide delivers maximum performance.

Features & benefits:

Superior tackiness

• Less wash off and better lubricity

• Reduces oil consumption, pitch build-up, energy costs, heat build-up and saw deviation

• Helps increase productivity, save money and contribute to greater sawmill profitability

• Only Petro-Canada monitors and indicates the level of tackiness for each grade in the Petroglide family

Greater recovery with superior extreme pressure properties

• Reduces friction and metal-to-metal contact

• Helps reduce wear and heat build-up for both saw guides and blades, minimizing saw deviation and maximizing recovery

• Fewer saw and guide changes, longer cutting cycles, less unscheduled maintenance and lower operating costs

Environmentally Friendly

• Inherently biodegradable

• Dioxin formation and environmental concerns are reduced due to low levels of dioxin precursors

Other Features

• Outstanding water separation reduces oil wash-off

• Anti-rust additive keeps blades cleaner helping to increase saw life

Applications:

Petro-Canada’s PETROGLIDE saw guide oils are specially formulated to lubricate the multiple saws and guides of modern arbor edgers. PETROGLIDE 68, 100 and 150 are recommended for use in arbor edgers (horizontal, vertical, single or double configurations), curve saws and thin kerf gangsaws manufactured by Ukiah, Kockums-Cancar, Schurman, Newnes, Optimil, McGehee, and CAE.
