When it comes to selecting the optimum lubricant for your industrial applications, FRAGOL is a partner with decades of experience in the industry. We are a leading supplier of compressor and vacuum pump oils and a recognised specialist in the development of customised 'island solutions'. FRAGOL combines engineering expertise with a wide range of products based on high performance base materials.
Expert advice on the choice of lubricant
The choice of the right lubricant - synthetic or mineral oil-based - depends on the specific requirements of each operation. Operating and environmental conditions, manufacturer specifications and other aspects all play a role. FRAGOL analyses all relevant operating factors, compares the advantages and disadvantages of each lubricant type and provides a clear recommendation for the selection.
Base oils of the latest generation
FRAGOL products are predominantly based on synthetic base oils of groups 4 (PAO) and 5 (all other synthetic base oils). These are characterised by excellent thermal and chemical stability, a wide operating temperature range, a high flash point and outstanding lubricity in high-performance applications. Some Group 5 base oils are also biodegradable, which makes them attractive for environmentally friendly applications.
Longer service life, less maintenance
Our synthetic oils form fewer deposits and residues than mineral oils. This helps to reduce the contamination of machines and systems as well as their wear. In combination with their better lubricating properties, synthetic oils can extend the service life of machine components.
Smart addition of additives
Additives are chemical compounds that are contained in our lubricants to improve their performance properties or fulfil certain functions. FRAGOL combines the perfect base oil blend with a carefully selected additive combination that fulfils the desired performance characteristics of your application even better.
Example: Almost all our products contain a special additive component that ensures proper lubrication even during a cold start and prevents the formation of sludge and/or carbon deposits on the metal surfaces.
Leading position in compressor and vacuum pump oils
Working with leading companies in the industry for decades has made us one of the leading suppliers of compressor and vacuum pump oils. Our synthetic lubricants can fulfil the high requirements regarding reactive and abrasive gases and media that are necessary for use even under the most demanding operating conditions. Compressor and vacuum pump oils from FRAGOL have proven themselves for many years in worldwide applications, even under extreme operating conditions.
Problem solver in the niche
Our technical expertise enables us to develop products for all special applications. For example, we have a water-soluble WGK-1 hydraulic oil, which has the decisive advantage of not forming an oil layer on the surface. We also offer high-temperature chain oils (for ovens, for example).
Just as you want it - exactly as you need it
FRAGOL develops customised products on request, which we manufacture together with you exactly according to your specific requirements and needs. With our ‘Tailor Made Products’, we are able to develop exactly the right lubricant for your application - even in very small quantities or small batches. Together with the FRAGOL research and development team, you can quickly, flexibly and easily find the perfect ‘island solution’ for your application.
