April 8, 2015 – With the help of Dow Chemical, Sullair is producing and
marketing an improved Sullube lubricant for its line of air compressors that
can last up to 10,000 hours.
Sullair and Dow are updating distributors internationally
and helping them incorporate the new lubricant into their regularly scheduled
maintenance programs.
Sullube is a high-performance polyglycol-based lubricant
that prevents the formation of varnish – a leading cause of air end failure –
and helps keep compressors running clean and cool.
Introduced nearly 30 years ago by Sullair and Dow, the lubricant
has been improved to meet the demanding needs of modern rotary screw air
compressors. Beyond its ability to protect and clean compressor air ends,
Sullube’s new formulation now improves lubricant life up to 10,000 hours, Sullair
said in a press release.
“Sullair has a strong reputation for the durability of its
air compressors,” said Tim Kruto, Sullair’s senior product manager of aftermarket
products. “This new formulation combines the benefits Sullube has historically
provided, and adds additional value with the extended fluid life all backed by
the expertise of Dow.”
“We have counted on Sullair for its best-in-class efficiency
and reliability for more than 30 years and look forward to continuing that
strong relationship with them for years to come,” said Keith Kenebrew, associate
commercial director for Dow Hydrocarbons and Resources.
To launch the improved formulation, the companies have been conducting
training sessions and webinars with Sullair distributors internationally and
have launched a website to provide information and resources about compressor
lubricants.
