Description of situation

Chains and bearings in a tunnel oven must be lubricated. This is often done with lubricants that are unsuitable for applications at high temperatures. The lubricants evaporate, smoke and oxidize, causing the chain or bearings in the oven to become dirty and even become carbonized resulting in wear and even breakage of the chain or bearing seizure.
