mj10ge1High-Viscosity Bio-Based Lubes

Formulated from renewable, biodegradable vegetable oils, the LubriMatic Green™ products from Plews/Edelmann are designed to replace and mix readily in conventional petroleum products for a more environmentally friendly lubricant. With its high viscosity index, bio-based oil is less likely to “thin down” at high temperatures, which leads to lower operating temperatures and a higher degree of lube safety, especially in high-speed applications.
