Primary Benefits

1. Biodegradable
2. High EP and Load Carrying Properties
3. Extended Carry Distance
4. Eliminates Costly Cleanup
5. Designed Specifically for Rail Curve Applications

Marinus Rail Curve Grease (RCG) has been specifically designed to reduce friction between the wheel flange and the rail, especially when curves are encountered.  This reduction in friction leads directly to savings in motive energy.  Marinus RCG meets or exceeds the performance offered by traditional mineral-based greases.  At the same time, Marinus RCG is extremely environmentally friendly because it is biodegradable and non-toxic.

On-going public sentiment and increasing regulatory guidelines implemented by governments have contributed to the demand for lubricants that are environmentally compatible.  This is particularly true for once-through lubricants such as rail curve grease.

There is a growing awareness of the potential environmental damage likely to occur when today's lubrication products are employed on rail transportation systems.  Maryn International Ltd. was challenged to develop a product equal to or surpassing the lubricating performance of current formulations but one that was environmentally benign.

Maryn recognizes that there is a growing awareness of the damage traditional petroleum based lubricants can cause our environment.  Marinus RCG provides you with the answer to the call for environmentally friendly lubricants.

Great care is taken in the manufacture of Marinus Rail Curve Grease to ensure total environmental protection and effective rail curve lubrication.  Testing in severe mountain service has demonstrated excellent extreme pressure properties.  The unique lubrication film created by Marinus RCG is capable of carrying extremely high loads.  This reduces track and wheel wear.  Testing using a tribometer, supplied by the American Association of Railways has demonstrated friction reduction equaling that of premium mineral based rail curve grease.
