The Benefits of Using Biodegradable Chainsaw Chain Oil

Using Biodegradable Chainsaw Chain Oil

Biodegradable chainsaw chain oil is one of the most talked about lubricants in the tree and forestry industry. In this article, we will help you understand some of the benefits of using this type of oil.

 

Every time you fill your chainsaw with lubricating oils, these products are sprayed into the environment when you use the saw. The oil gets released from the bar tip once it has moved around the bar just a few times. The tiny, atomised oil particles then get sprayed over the work area or may cling to the sawdust. In other words, every time you use a chainsaw, 100% of this petroleum-based lubricant affects the environment. 

These oils contain known carcinogens. Apart from this, longer periods of exposure to the petroleum-based oil mist can result in respiratory tract irritation for the user. This makes it important to look for an alternative that won’t put users at risk or the environment. Biodegradable chainsaw oil is the perfect solution to this problem.

Biodegradable chainsaw chain oil – The benefits

  • Environmentally friendly – Using these oils as a chain lubricant poses absolutely no threat to our environment as they are natural and non-toxic.
  • Highly effective– These oils have certain natural properties such as resistance to shear, good lubricity, a high viscosity index and a high flash point. This makes them very effective in lubricating your chainsaw without contributing to the bar or chain’s wear & tear over time. They are specifically designed to lubricate as well as protect the cutter bars and chainsaw chains on pump-fed chainsaws. There is negligible waste-wood accumulation in the sprocket and guide cover areas, which helps reduce wear.
  • Better safety for users A chainsaw operates at a very high RPM which results in oil misting; this can potentially affect users either through dermal absorption or inhalation. Biodegradable chainsaw chain oil has high viscous levels with anti-fling properties, which significantly reduce the inhalation of fumes by users. On this count, two studies have indicated that biodegradable oils are safer than most petroleum-based oils.

  • Significantly reduces sticky/gummy deposits and lacquers forming

In addition, biodegradable oils are extremely cost-effective and easily available online. Since these oils are biodegradable, they are highly sustainable products. They also allow cooler chain temperatures which increase the lifespan of your chainsaws and reduce chain adjustment downtime. They also have good flow properties at extreme temperatures and most users report at least 50% less oil consumption once they start to use these oils with regularity.
