CICO® BF 45 B

Description

CICO® BF 45 B is a modern, biodegradable specialty lubricant designed for demanding applications in the rail industry. It is specifically formulated for the lubrication of buffers, screw couplings, draw hook guides, handbrake spindles, gear and chain wheels of the handbrake, axle bearing slide plates, and support saddles on rail vehicles.

The product effectively reduces friction and wear, protects against corrosion, and eliminates disturbing noise – benefiting railway operators, maintenance personnel, and residents near railway lines.

Why CICO® BF 45 B is the right choice?

Friction and noise reduction

Minimises wear on all key components such as buffers, couplings, draw hook guides, or brake parts. Prevents noise caused by insufficient lubrication.

Corrosion and wear protection

Provides reliable protection against early wear or damage, even under intense mechanical loads and in challenging environments.

High load and impact resistance

Ensures lasting lubrication performance, even under extreme operating conditions and heavy mechanical stress.

Weather resistance

Delivers consistent performance under varying temperatures, humidity, and wet conditions.

Excellent adhesion

Resistant to water washout and strong shear or tear forces – significantly extends relubrication intervals.

Environmentally friendly formula

Biodegradable and safe for both humans and the environment.

Applications and Innovative Features

CICO® BF 45 B is ideal for lubricating a wide range of heavily loaded components on rail vehicles – including buffers, screw couplings, draw hook guides, handbrake spindles, gear and chain wheels of the handbrake, axle bearing slide plates, and support saddles. These parts are subject to frequent friction, mechanical stress, and environmental exposure.

Reliable lubrication with CICO® BF 45 B reduces wear, prevents functional failures, and minimises operational noise, improving comfort, safety, and working conditions. Its strong adhesion and excellent weather resistance help to significantly extend relubrication intervals, reducing maintenance effort and lubricant consumption – an efficient and sustainable solution for both operators and the environment.

Application information

CICO® BF 45 B is available as a paste or spray – offering maximum flexibility during application. Shake the spray can well before use, as it contains solid lubricants.

Available packaging sizes:

• Paste: 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg
• Spray: 400 ml

Other packaging sizes available on request.
