How to Address the Skilled Worker Shortage

Understanding Calcium Sulfonate Thickeners
 
Calcium sulfonate thickeners have been around for almost 50 years. This particular type of grease has inherent extreme pressure (EP) properties that stand out from the rest. These properties, combined with the fact that it can be formulated for use in H-1 (food-grade) applications, make it an attractive alternative to other greases.

Lube Tip
 
Equipment that is run in an extremely dirty environment such as in a forge or foundry needs extra care to avoid contamination. We try to keep our equipment sealed and avoid unnecessary opening of the reservoirs. Install quick disconnects in your tanks and on your fill vessels for filling or topping-up hydraulic tanks. All our equipment has mainstream sampling taps installed for uptime or running sampling. This will result in a true indication of the condition of your oil, avoiding any bottom sampling.
