The Hill And Griffith Company Introduces The New Griflube (Registered) Line Of Hydraulic Fluids For Manufacturing


Cincinnati, OH, April 2, 2002 (For immediate release) - The Hill and Griffith Company introduces the new GRIFLUBE line of specialty industrial lubricants engineered for precision hydraulic applications. These include the Premier AW (Anti-Wear) hydraulic and lubricating oils, the Premier R&O hydraulic circulating Oils, Gear Oil EP industrial gear lubricants, Slide-Way lubricants, Aquatech FR 200 premium water glycol, and the new biodegradable Bio-Syn 68 fire resistant fluid.

With servo-system cleanliness, the Premier AW (Anti-Wear) hydraulic and lubricating oils were designed to exceed the rigorous requirements of heavy-duty hydraulic applications where high pressures, temperature extremes, and moisture are most demanding on hydraulic fluids. GRIFLUBE Premier AW hydraulic fluids are formulated with the highest quality refined paraffin base stocks in the industry and then fortified with the most effective anti-wear additives and oxidation inhibitors available.

Where high oxidation and maximum amount of water separation are needed, Hill and Griffith offers Premier R&O hydraulic circulating oils, which are effective in all but the most severe high pressure applications. These products are ideal in circulating systems such as steam turbines where maximum demulsibility of water and low air entrainment properties permit a high circulation rate.

GRIFLUBE Gear-Oil EP industrial gear lubricants are formulated to ensure superior thermal stability, corrosion control and seal compatibility for all severe applications where extreme load and shock load conditions are prevalent. The line s extreme pressure additives provide the highest load carrying properties to extend the life of gear reducers which utilize spiral bevel, helical, herring bone, and spur gears.

To lubricate slides and ways in all types of metalworking and machine tool applications, GRIFLUBE Slide-Way 68 and 220 help maintain smooth, uninterrupted motion, provide maximum latitude in extreme pressure protection while preventing stick-slip chatter in the machine tool feed. They are unusually resistant to removal by the detergency of synthetic coolants and soluble oils thus minimizing the degree of tramp oil contamination limiting biological attack of the coolant.

Aquatech FR 200 is a premium fire resistant water glycol hydraulic fluid, designed specifically for the diecast and permanent mold industries, where safety is a priority and maximum stability in reserve alkalinity is demanded for extended corrosion control.

With the advent of increased environmental awareness, Hill and Griffith developed the Bio-Syn 68 biodegradable fire resistant fluid for foundry applications requiring maximum latitude in lubrication and complete compatibility with the environment.

*All hydraulic fluids are available with a proactive preventive maintenance program which allows for extended warranty consideration on all hydraulic components.

Established in 1896, the Hill and Griffith Company has grown to five manufacturing facilities in North America. Hill and Griffith is ISO 9002 and QS 9000 certified and is recognized as a quality leader in such specialty industries as metal-casting, metal- working, metal-forming, and injection molding.
