Lubricating tube BHS-HoReCa L5059550

A lubricating tube delivers controlled amounts of food-safe grease to the moving parts of professional catering equipment. The paste or gel inside reduces friction between metal surfaces, preventing wear and seizing that can occur under constant use and high temperatures. Without regular lubrication, hinges, slides, bearings and seals gradually stiffen, increasing the effort needed to operate doors, drawers and rotating assemblies. The tube format allows precise application directly to the point of contact, minimising waste and avoiding contamination of food zones.

To use, the operator cleans the target surface of old grease and debris, then squeezes the tube to deposit a small bead of lubricant along the moving joint. The equipment is worked through its full range of motion several times to distribute the grease evenly. Excess is wiped away with a clean cloth, leaving a thin protective film that repels water and resists wash-down chemicals.

The construction consists of an aluminium tube with a threaded nozzle cap. The cap seals the contents between uses, preventing hardening or contamination. The tube is small enough to store in a tool drawer or mounted on a wall bracket near the equipment it serves.

This lubricating tube is placed in the maintenance section of the catalogue, alongside cleaning agents, brushes and replacement seals for professional catering equipment.
