Power Up For Reliability-Centered Savings

Reliability Centered Maintenance, is the approach endorsed by Maintenance Professionals across industries. Lubrication Technologies, Inc., (LTI) practices RCM to support the protection of assets at the lowest life-cycle cost. Our World Class Lubrication Reliability Program incorporates best practices and produces optimum results.

For machinery to run efficiently, they depend on the type of lubricant selected as well as the method of application. Modern machinery requires exact methods of application, unlike when lubrication could be applied by hand, today it needs to be precisely controlled. For most machinery, different methods of lubrication and types of lubricants must be employed for different parts with either a grease or oil lubricant.

Industrial Oils

Lubrication Engineers™ industrial oils are well-suited for a vast array of uses, including long-service-life applications, high- and low-temperature applications, applications with the possibility of incidental food contact, and outdoor applications in marine environments and other areas where environmental concerns require the use of a very low-toxicity lubricant. LE industrial oils are available in a wide range of ISO grades, with viscosities to meet any application requirement.
Most of LE industrial oils contain at least one of their proprietary additives to improve performance, including:

  • Monolec® a wear-reducing additive that creates a single molecular lubricating film on metal surfaces
  • Quinplex® an impact-resistant additive that helps to form a barrier against corrosion
  • Duolec® a dual-acting additive that imparts synergistic properties to lubricants, providing both wear-reducing and extreme pressure protection

Comprehensive Industrial Oil Lineup Offers Many Benefits

LE industrial oils encompass 15 major categories, ranging from gear oils, air compressor oils and hydraulic oils to rock drill oils, turbine oils and low-toxicity oils. Because the kinds of industrial oils LE offers are so diverse, the features and benefits are also diverse. These include anti-foam, anti-wear, high-viscosity, thermal stability and high load-carrying ability, as well as many others. Among the oils in the LE line are varieties that are semi-synthetic or fully synthetic, some that meet NSF H1 requirements for incidental food contact and are certified Kosher Pareve by the Orthodox Union, and some that meet USDA H2 criteria for non-food contact areas of food processing plants.

Because of these features and benefits, LE industrial oils can prevent rust, adhere to metal, combat acid hydrolysis, loosen corroded and frozen parts, and meet or exceed OEM requirements for various types of machinery.

Industrial Greases

Lubrication Engineers™ offers a full line of high-performance industrial greases. Included in the LE grease line are technologically advanced, highly versatile, general purpose, multifunctional, and extreme pressure (EP) varieties, all of which outperform conventional greases. LE’s industrial greases are formulated with a variety of thickener types, including lithium complex, calcium sulfonate, clay (bentone), and polyurea; and they come in a range of NLGI grades.

LE greases are formulated for a variety of industries and applications to provide protection for components and parts such as bearings (roller bearings, linear bearings and other), bucket pins, bushings, cables, cams, chains, chassis, open gears, and slides & ways (slideways). LE greases offer varying benefits such as reduced wear, reduced operating temperatures, longer equipment life, enhanced performance, increased efficiency, increased uptime, lower grease consumption, longer service intervals and reduced maintenance.

Proper Lubrication + Contamination Control = Profits

It makes sense. The number one cause of failures is contamination of hydraulic oils and lubricating oils with dirt and water. If we can limit the size of particulates that enter oil reservoirs to smaller than the film of oil we are counting on to run interference between two opposing moving metal parts, then we can accomplish the following:

  • Lengthen lifespan of parts, equipment and lubricant
  • Increase time between failures / increase production
  • Reduce friction, heat and wear
  • Reduce energy consumption
  • Reduce oil temperatures
  • Increase oil change intervals /decrease waste oil / decrease new oil purchases
  • Increase profits

Lubricant Handling / Storage Contamination Control

  • Filtration Systems
  • Desiccant Breathers
  • Color Coding Oil Storage and Transfer Container Kits
  • Bulk Fluid and Lubricant Storage
  • Personnel Training
  • Condition Monitoring

Lubrication Management Programs Protect Your Assets and Save You Money

Lubrication Technologies has extensive experience and knowledge when it comes to installing ReliaMAX™ Automatic Lubrication Systems on industrial machinery and equipment.

Whatever Your Lubrication Needs, Lubrication Technologies, Inc. Can Help

Extreme pressure, high temperature, continuous high speed, and contamination from dirt and moisture are all conditions that can create strenuous demands on the lubrication systems protecting valuable production assets at rubber mills and plastic manufacturing plants. Whether you are producing the resin or producing a finished rubber or plastic product, Lubrication Technologies, Inc. can help you create and implement a customized lubrication management program that protects your equipment and keeps it contaminant-free. Our Reliability Centered Maintenance, program can deliver quantifiable performance advantages to industrial manufacturing operations equipment of all types and sizes.

Lubricants - Small Cost, Huge Returns

Lubrication Management Programs Protect Your Assets and Save You Money:

Although lubricants make up a mere 3% of the typical maintenance budget; using ineffective products, techniques and applications can have a significant impact on the lubrication-related costs that make up 40% of that budget. A Lubrication Management Program designed by the Technical Consultants at Lubrication Technologies, Inc. can help you target those areas where you see red.

  • Your equipment and components will last longer, run more efficiently and more reliably, and you won’t replace equipment or components prematurely
  • Your labor force will spend less time on routine lubrication-related maintenance and no time on lubricant-related equipment failures
  • You’ll reduce over-all lubricant consumption as well as waste
