When we bought our Heller reflow oven, the installation technician recommended using Oberon chain lube part # 680784(0) when we needed to purchase more oil for our chain. I just went to the oberonlube.com website and could not find that part number.

what I have usually found although not from wave conveyor chains but from racing motorcycles is that binding is caused by wear and bending and not dirt unless it is excessive to the point that you can actually see the dirt that is binding it. When t

Be careful on how you go about this. Some older wave chains will have anywhere from a bit to lot of lead embedded into the grease. Ive had best luck sending it out to a shop that can hot tank them. Costs about $25 and it comes back all clean and lube
