The underground and hard rock mining industry can sometimes be associated with numerous safety challenges.
Among these challenges is the critical need to prevent fires and maintain operational efficiency. Recognising these industry-specific requirements, CRC, an expert in the world of lubricants and chemicals, has introduced its latest offerings: CRC TAC-2 non-flammable and CRC 5.56 non-flammable.
Steve Keown, national product manager for lubricants and chemicals at Motion, couldn’t stress the importance of these advancements more.
“Non-flammable products are gaining great acceptance in the marketplace,” he said. “They are an attractive solution to sites that need to keep going but still need to repair something in that particular area.”
His words resonate with this industry as more companies are looking for solutions that do not compromise safety for efficiency.
According to Keown, byomparing these with their original versions, the non-flammable attributes really stand out.
CRC TAC-2 non-flammable:
- Tailored for mining operations, especially those in areas with low ventilation, CRC TAC-2 non-flammable provides unmatched adhesive lubrication. It ensures minimised wear and tear, leading to longer equipment life
- It forms a strong bond with surfaces, minimising run off and offering long-term lubrication and corrosion prevention
CRC 5.56 non-flammable
- Known for its multi-purpose attributes, this solution is not just a lubricant. It stops squeaks, frees up rust, and even displaces moisture – attributes that are indispensable in the damp and challenging environments of hard rock mining
- Like its counterpart, its non-conductive and non-corrosive nature ensures safety, making it an indispensable tool for underground mining operations
