Schaeffler launches Halal and Kosher-certified bearing grease(pic)

Schaeffler UK has introducing a rolling bearing grease certified for use in both Halal and Kosher food processing environments.

The FAG Arcanol FOOD2 rolling bearing grease is registered to category H1 with the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation).

Typical applications include filling plants, packaging and sealing machines, meat and fish processing machines, freezing systems and other plant and equipment in the food and beverage industries.

All greases and lubricating oils that come into direct contact with food must be registered to NSF Category H1. FAG Arcanol FOOD2 also meets this requirement.

In the future, Schaeffler will use FAG Arcanol FOOD2 as the standard grease for corrosion-resistant deep groove ball bearings and radial insert ball bearings, which are increasingly used in the food industry.
