Fuel Ox LLC, fuel additive manufacturer, unveiled a solution to maximize equipment performance and sustainability called Fuel Ox Infinity Lube™.
Fuel Ox formulated the Infinity Lube line of lubricants with a patented technology that goes beyond simple lubricity. It improves performance and longevity for engines and virtually any other metal machinery. Conventional lubricants merely add a temporary film layer and coating to reduce friction and displace water. But Infinity Lube products contain HDI-2500, a patented compound that enables carbonitriding, or case hardening, of friction points in machinery.
As temperatures increase, the carbonitriding process diffuses carbon and nitrogen into metal. This process creates a protective alloy layer of up to 15 microns (0.015 mm). This surface area conditioning reduces friction, lowers operating temperatures, and substantially decreases wear and tear of vital machine components.
Rand Taylor, co-founder and CEO of Fuel Ox, says Infinity Lube helps further position Fuel Ox as a partner for businesses looking to improve the sustainability of their operations, while lowering operating costs and boosting equipment performance.
“The Fuel Ox line of products improve sustainability for customers across a wide range of industry sectors by maximizing the life and performance of their essential equipment while also reducing environmental impact,” Taylor says. “Adding Fuel Ox with Combustion Catalyst to your fuel tank can improve fuel efficiency by as much as double digits, reducing fuel costs as well as equipment downtime and greenhouse gases. And now, adding our Fuel Ox Infinity Lube to oil reservoirs, gearboxes, bearing cases, and other moving machine components can significantly reduce equipment maintenance costs and downtime, prolong its useful life, further improve fuel efficiency, and cut oil change frequency by 66% or more.”
PRODUCT LINEUP
Fuel Ox developed and tested the non-toxic lineup in various industrial applications over more than 20 years before commercial launch. The product lineup includes:
- Liquid Friction Eliminator – A premium, bio-based liquid lubricant compatible with conventional and synthetic engine oils, gear oils, and all hydraulics. Based on field testing, adding 2 oz per quart of oil can triple the length of time or mileage between oil changes.
- FSG Super Grease – Created for even the most rugged environments, Infinity Lube SG Super Grease can be used in virtually any automotive, heavy equipment, marine, and industrial applications. Fuel Ox designed Super Grease for chassis fittings, bucket pins, springs, water pumps, bearings, and any general lubrication. But it can also be used in automatic dispensing systems and wet/underwater environments. Recent testing (ASTM-D4170) conducted by Falex Corp. showed it reduces wear as much as 700% vs leading competitive grease lubricants.
- Penetrating Lubricant Spray – A premium penetrating non-aerosol spray lubricant, cleaner, and degreaser made with plant-based essential oils. Spray it on any point of friction to reduce wear and tear and loosen rusted, stuck, or frozen metal parts.
Package sizes range from individual bottles/tubes for private owner-operator usage up to fleet-scale drums and barrels. Find out more, visit www.fuelox.com.
