Circular Knitting Machine Oil Advantages

Circular Knitting Machine Oil is formulated with highly refined NSF H1 approved food grade oil and high performance additives. It guarantees the predicted life of your machine, minimizes your repair and spare parts costs (especially needles) and provides economy through long lubrication periods.

Its excellent washability makes it easy to clean from the fabric. In recent years, with the increasing number of revolutions of knitting machines, the needle movement is completed in a very short distance and time. For this reason, failure to select the appropriate oil will result in increased friction and abrasion, needle platinum breakage, and abrasion due to heating to high temperatures inside the machine. It has become a necessity for the oil selected in knitting machines to be of high quality.

Circular Knitting Machine Oil Features

  • Due to its high wetting capacity, it spreads very quickly on the parts where it is applied and performs the lubrication function in the machine in a short time.
  • High lubricity and long service life.
  • Extends the lifetime of needles.
  • Reduces the heat generated by friction in the machine and keeps the part temperature to a minimum.
  • Suitable for automatic lubrication systems of knitting machines.

Circular Knitting Machine Oil Usage Areas

Lubricates needles, sinkers, needle cams and needle rollers.

Helps to clean needle grooves and prolongs the service life of needles and sinkers.

Armoni 22/32/46 – Textile Oils are dosed by conventional oil feeding.

It is available in viscosity grades ISO VG 22, 32 and 46. It can therefore be used for circular and flat bed knitting machines.

Application Areas

It is used to lubricate and keep the needle and platin systems clean in circular and flat-bed knitting machines.

Circular Knitting Machine Oil Frequently Asked Questions

Circular Knitting Machine Oil is formulated from a combination of high quality HVI solvent-extracted double hydrogenated paraffin based oils with good lubricity, good oxidation stability and good corrosion protection. It is formulated not only to meet the demanding requirements of today’s knitting machine technology, but also to be fully compatible with the yarns and finishes to which the knitted fabric is subjected. In the event of accidental contact with the fabric or fibers, Molylub Textolin is formulated to be a truly washable oil using only water. This oil can be removed without the use of commercial detergents or caustic cleaning agents. Circular knitting machine oils should have the following characteristics Easily washable, easily water-dispersed Good oxidation resistance. Good lubricity, platinum wear protection, reduces friction Excellent lubricant film stability Very light color to minimize staining. Good rust protection Non-corrosive to copper, bronze and other non-ferrous parts Formulated to meet the requirements of GOTS 4.0 approved ECO labels for organic cotton processing, biodegradable type

Recommended for use on skein knitting machines, full fashion machines using nylon yarn and circular knitting machines where light oil is required. High speed textile production machinery including needles, lifters and sinkers, rapier guides and jacquard components on looms can be applied by hand with brush, spray or oil can.

We also offer a high quality needle and sinker cleaner with excellent cleaning properties. Corfin Circular Knitting Machine Oils are specially formulated for ring lubrication in spinning and twisting mills. These high quality ring oils are excellent for reliable lubrication of sintered metal and steel rings as well as for high operating speeds and heavy loads of rails and rings. Corfin high temperature chain oils are used for reliable lubrication of all types of chains in textile machinery.

Because we use it often and don’t use a lot at a time, sewing machine oil is sold in large quantities. Even though this oil lasts about five years, it’s common for people to have a lot of expired oil on their hands. Here are some ways to get the most out of your sewing machine oil: Avoid storing oil in sunlight. Avoid storing the oil in cold places. Avoid contact with water. Don’t mix oils One of the best ways to preserve oil is to avoid adding unnecessary oxygen, condensation, or foreign liquids to the oil. Oxygen and water can encourage bacterial growth, which will quickly degrade the oil. It is a good practice to store the oil in a clear container so that you can easily see any sedimentation or color changes. The best environment for your transparent oil container is a dark, but room temperature area. Corfin Circular Knitting Machine Oils are essential to keeping your machine in top condition! Keep a bottle handy and check that it is not out of date before applying.
