Lubrication Technologies, Inc. was named the number one sales organization for Lubrication Engineers Asset Reliability Solutions in the United States in the year 2020.
We began in 1976 as an authorized manufacturer’s representative for Lubrication Engineers, Inc. a full line ISO 9000 certified manufacturer of premium performance lubricants designed to maximize equipment life and improve productivity and profitability in all types of industries. These products, and a significant following of loyal customers became the foundation and remain the core of our operation today.

We now offer total Lubrication Management Solutions making us truly a “one stop shop” for any and all lubricant related products.
The year before the company switched lubricants, they experienced 114 roller bearing failures in its Rolligon fleet. The year after switching to LE’s Almaplex 1298, that failure number was reduced to only 24 – a 73% reduction. At a cost of $1,450 per bearing and considering parts and labor, the company saved approximately $196,200.
An LE representative recommended Monolec Ultra® Engine Oil to extend drains while maintaining superior wear protection. After using the LE oil for 18 months, the company documented its annual cost reductions due to the changeover. The results showed great performance and a healthy return on investment, with total annual savings of more than $1.6 million across the cost centers measured in the engine oil category.
The company was using a major brand competitive gear oil in its loaders, graders and dozers. However, this oil was providing inadequate lubrication for the heavy loads and frigid temperatures down to -50°F (-45.5°C). This led to brittle seals, which introduced contamination, lubricant starvation, and wheel bearing failures. The company was replacing 400 to 500 seals and wheel bearings each year. LE’s Monolec® Syn Gear Oil (9919) reduced the annual seal and wheel bearing failures by 40%, which provided a total annual savings of $576,000.
Saved $92,400 over a five year peirod since converting to LE lubrication program. “We cannot say enough about the service Lubrication Technologies supplies, as well as the products, top notch in our book! The installation of the lubrication system is the single, most cost-effective option on a truck.”
