Industry applications

The applications below are the ones our approvals and reference letters actually cover. We have deliberately left out segments we can only talk about in theory.

Application

Mining and coal

Hydraulic support systems, shearer and conveyor drives, and crusher gearing in conditions where a fire-resistant fluid is mandatory.

Fire-resistant hydraulic support concentrate HFAS 30-5 / 10-5 / 15-5
Emulsion oil HFAE 30-5 / 10-5 / 15-5, diluted to the support circuit
Heavy-load gear oils for crushers, conveyors and reducers
Extreme-pressure greases for pinion and bearing points

Six mining product safety marks (MA) — MNA260020 to MNA260025 — issued against MT/T 76-2011. This is the compulsory gate for coal-mine hydraulic fluids, and it is a state laboratory result, not a self-declaration.

Application

Power generation

Thermal power stations run turbine, hydraulic and transformer oils in the same plant, and they approve a supplier once and keep it for a decade.

Rust-preventive turbine oil (L-TSA) for the turbine and governor system
Anti-wear hydraulic oil for coal handling, ash and valve actuators
Transformer oil to GB 2536 for station transformers up to 330 kV
Heat transfer oil for auxiliary thermal systems

A coal-fired utility has issued a written approval naming the anti-wear hydraulic oil and the rust-preventive turbine oil as designated plant oils; the letter is available to buyers under NDA.

Application

Steel and metallurgy

Rolling mills and continuous casters combine high load, high temperature, water ingress and continuous operation — the hardest duty for an industrial oil.

L-CKD heavy-load gear oils for mill drives, contact stress above 1100 MPa
Spindle oils for high-speed roll neck bearings
Hydraulic and hydraulic-transmission oils for mill hydraulics
Oil-mist lubrication oils for bearing housings
Demulsibility and water separation are the deciding properties here

An integrated steelworks has approved spindle, hydraulic transmission, oil-mist, industrial gear, diesel engine and hydraulic oil series as designated materials; the approval is available to buyers under NDA.

Application

Metalworking and machine tools

Machine shops buy fluids on price and lose money on sump life. The twelve products in this range are specified by material and operation, not by catalogue position.

Fully synthetic fluids for cast iron and steel in central systems
Aluminium-specific synthetic fluid for machining and drilling
Emulsions for mixed ferrous and aluminium work
Drawing oil for copper and aluminium wire
Wire EDM fluid and cold-heading oil for specific processes

Every fluid is characterised at its working dilution — pH and corrosion at 3–5 % — because that is what sits in the machine, not the concentrate.

Application

Construction and earthmoving

Excavator and loader fleets in tropical markets run long hours on 15W-40 and hydraulic oil, and the oil is usually bought by the dealer, not the operator.

Diesel engine oils CI-4, CH-4, CJ-4 and CK-4 in 15W-40 and 10W-40
L-HM anti-wear hydraulic oil, ISO VG 46 and 68
GL-5 gear oil for axles and final drives
Hydraulic transmission fluid and ATF for driveline circuits

Denison HF-0 approval on the hydraulic range matters here: it is the approval that covers vane and piston pumps in mobile equipment, including the steel-on-bronze pumps that a non-ashless oil attacks.

Application

Aquaculture and marine equipment

Aeration blowers, pumps, feeders and winches — mostly small machines, but a failure stops a whole pond, so the oil has to be predictable.

Hydraulic oil for winches, gates and feed systems
Compressor oils for aeration blowers
Gear oils for speed reducers and paddle drives
Grease for submerged and splash-zone bearings

This is a smaller segment for us and we will say so. What we can offer is a short, correct product list and a private-label pack size that suits a dealer selling into farms rather than factories.
