Chevron Launches Rykon for Heavy-Duty Applications
USAgNet - 02/02/2024
Chevron has expanded its lubricant portfolio with the introduction of Rykon®, a cutting-edge grease tailored for the most challenging industrial applications and potentially farm equipment. This newly launched product is set to redefine standards in heavy-duty equipment maintenance, offering unprecedented protection and performance.
Rykon's advanced calcium sulfonate complex formula is a game-changer for sectors reliant on machinery subjected to extreme pressures and demanding conditions.
Engineered for durability and reliability, Rykon addresses the industry's need for a grease that not only withstands high-pressure situations but also extends the life of equipment. Its introduction comes at a critical time when the demand for more efficient and cost-effective lubrication solutions is at an all-time high, driven by the escalating prices and scarcity of lithium-based thickeners globally.
Zach Sutton, an Industrial sector specialist at Chevron Lubricants, emphasized Rykon's role in Chevron's commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. Rykon is not just about meeting the current needs of machinery but is designed with the future in mind, ensuring that equipment owners can achieve longer lubrication intervals, reduce maintenance costs, and minimize downtime.
Rykon distinguishes itself by offering superior oxidation and thermal stability, along with excellent water resistance, ensuring that equipment is shielded from the most common causes of failure.
Its ability to handle shock loads and provide exceptional wear protection under heavy loads and high temperatures makes it an indispensable resource for industries aiming to maximize operational efficiency and equipment longevity.
As part of Chevron's recent brand refresh, Rykon will also debut new packaging, aligning with Chevron’s commitment to delivering high-quality, innovative products.
