Pericles™

Synthetic gear oils

The Pericles series of synthetic industrial EP gear oils are PAO-based high-performance lubricants exceeding the requirements of AIST 224, AGMA 9005-F16 anti-scuff, and DIN 51517, Part 3. These products are excellent choices for use in extended drain interval and harsh condition applications such as wind turbines.

DuraQuench™

Quench

Quenching oils to regulated hardness after quenching.

Zephyr™

Compressor lubricants

Our SCL lines are premium synthetic compressor oils based on PAO (PA series), PAG (PG series), and synthetic esters (SE series). They provide excellent lubrication and wear protection in reciprocating, screw-type and rotary vane compressors on a variety of gasses.

EZClean™

Cleaners

Liquid and dry powder cleaners to remove residuals from wire and sheet.

PureClean™ FC

Maintenance cleaners

Floor and maintenance cleaners developed for use in floor scrubbers, mop and bucket, and pressure washers to remove heavy greases, oil, and tire marks on concreted and coated surfaces.

Triton™

Lithium grease

The Triton series of EP lithium hydroxystearate greases are formulated to provide extra protection against wear, rusting, and water washout. These greases are recommended for most types of industrial applications including heavy-duty applications where high unit pressures or shock loads are present.

Spartan™

Lithium complex grease

The Spartan series of lithium complex greases are effective for a wide variety of applications and severe operating conditions. These greases are formulated to provide excellent high temperature performance with superb adhesion, structural stability, and resistance to water contamination. They provide a high level of chemical stability and offer excellent protection against rust and corrosion.

PolyShield™

Polyurea grease

PolyShield is a polyurea-thickened lubricating grease formulated with the highest quality paraffinic base oils available. Fortified with corrosion and oxidation inhibitors, PolyShield is an excellent choice for the lubrication and protection of high-speed electric motor bearings as well as other industrial applications.

Apex™

Aluminum complex grease

The Apex series of aluminum complex greases provide superior corrosion protection on metal surfaces, even in the presence of aggressive mill water, minimizing water etching and staining. Apex greases contain proprietary high-performance polymer additives, providing superior adhesion to metal surfaces for continuous lubricant protection. Extreme pressure and anti-wear additives protect against wear during “mixed film” lubrication and provide lubricity over a wide range of temperatures.

Olympus™

Overbased calcium sulfonate grease

Olympus delivers superior water-resistance performance, protecting equipment from failures and unplanned downtime. These greases are designed for plain and anti-friction bearing applications operating under high stress/high load conditions, coupled with high ambient temperatures typically found in heavy-duty industrial, and off-road applications.
