In heavy industry, equipment reliability is the difference between project success and costly downtime. Fluid Dynamics provides the ruggedized chemistries required to protect high-value machinery operating under extreme pressure, shock loading, and harsh environmental conditions. We support the agriculture, mining, and construction sectors with specialized lubricants, greases, and protection fluids engineered to keep your fleet and your facility moving.
Duraloc High-Performance Greases: Built for the Toughest Conditions
Our Duraloc® brand represents the evolution of proven grease technology, engineered for applications where reliability is non-negotiable. We offer a diverse range of thickener chemistries tailored to specific mechanical and environmental needs:
- Extreme Pressure & Shock Loading: Our Molybdenum-containing greases (Lithium or Calcium based) are fortified to withstand the intense impact and high-load cycles typical of mining and construction equipment.
- Superior Water Resistance:For machinery exposed to wet, muddy, or marine environments, our Calcium and Calcium Complex greases provide a robust defense against wash-out.
- Versatile Delivery & Grades: Available in multiple exact consistency standards (NLGI Grades 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0) to accommodate automated centralized systems, soft consistencies for cold-weather pumping, and standard high-load grease points.
- Flexible Packing Options: Packaging formats include Pails, Drums, Totes (one-way and returnable), and Bulk quantities to align with your facility infrastructure.
NuSOL®: Extreme Lubrication for Heavy-Duty Machining
When manufacturing or repairing heavy equipment components, traditional fluids often fail under pressure. NuSOL® technology eliminates the compromise between cooling and lubrication.
- Unmatched Film Strength: Engineered with proprietary base fluids that are 25x to 150x more viscous than typical products, maximizing load-carrying capacity for extreme form tapping and deep hole drilling.
- Total Equipment Protection: NuSOL® provides complete corrosion protection across all machinery parts and remains stable even in hard water systems common in industrial environments.
- Extended Tool Life: By maintaining a flat, minimal coefficient of friction, NuSOL® protects expensive custom tooling longer than traditional mineral oils.
Advanced Quenching for Durable Components
Heavy industry requires parts that can withstand immense stress without failure. DOW® UCON® polymer quenchants provide the precise heat treatment necessary to ensure component durability.
- Reduced Defects: Optimize heat treatment to minimize cracking and distortion across a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
- Cost Efficiency: Achieve a greater than 50% reduction in manufacturing costs due to lower carry-off rates and polymer dilution capabilities.
- Fire Safety: Formulated with water to eliminate fire hazards, providing a safer alternative to traditional oil quenching in high-volume production facilities.
Maintenance, Cleaning & Preservation
Keep your operations lean and your finished parts protected from the elements.
- Heavy-Duty Cleaning: Our strong alkaline cleaners (such as LARZIP and ALC 50 G) are designed to strip the toughest grease, oils, and carbon buildup from heavy machinery and facility floors.
- Environmental Protection: For equipment stored outdoors or in transit, our Metal Protection & VCI line provides a robust defense against atmospheric corrosion and diverse environmental challenges.
- Critical Machinery Support: Through our partnership with Lubrizol, we offer CPI® compressor lubricants that ensure operational reliability and reduced downtime of your critical air systems.
