Did you know that using grease for casters and wheels is a ""must"" when it comes to baking racks?
If you're planning on using cooling racks in the freezer, you have to make sure that its wheels are well-greased.
Machineries in the food industry need to be lubricated to ensure the smoothness in production and to reduce wear, corrosion, friction and oxidation.
Food grade grease functions like any other machinery lubricant which is to protect the equipment against corrosion, friction and oxidation. Additionally, it needs to resist degradation from water and chemicals and must not react towards elastomers and plastics.
Food grade grease has been around since the 1960's and they continue to be an integral part of the food and beverage industry up to this day.
Over-greasing and under-greasing is the cause for many equipment failures in the food making industry. With that being said, proper application is important to avoid any costly repairs and using a grease gun will help you achieve a proper and even grease application. Additionally, you should thoroughly clean the previous grease from your equipment before re-applying in order for the food grade grease to perform at an optimum level.
