Case Studies

Northumbrian Water
& Seafield Sewage Works

Using TUFLUBE® Allweather on penstock screws. Previously rusting and seizing, the screws are now able to extend the interval between lubrications to annually.

Anglian Water, Pyewipe, Grimsby

SAPPHIRE® Autolube on the air blower bearings within the drier plant. This ensured the highly stressed bearings did not fail and has significantly reduced labour.

ANGLIAN WATER SITE AT HUNTINGDON

“SAPPHIRE® Hi Torque was trialled on six aeration tank drive gearboxes for 6 months to try and save energy. Sapphire Hi Torque showed a saving of 4% on energy consumption. This amounted to an annual saving of £19K+

Pioneering technologies unique to ROCOL®

Risk maniagement in the food & beverage industry has never been so complex and important.
Thats why we developed DETEX®; metal detectable plastic actuators and caps for all our food grade aerosols and cartridges.

DETEX® reduces risk, helps our customers avoid costly recalls & protects our customers reputation

SAPPHIRE® AQUA 2

Multi-purpose water resistant EP bearing grease

Very good temperature resistance – ranging from -20°C to +150°C.
Excellent resistance to water, including salt water ensuring components are protected even in submerged conditions.
Aluminium complex soap technology and EP additives provide outstanding high load, extreme pressure performance superior to standard soap thickened lubricants.
SAPPHIRE Aqua 2 has good resistance to oxidation, providing extended lubrication intervals whilst reducing equipment failure, downtime and lubricant usage.
Excellent corrosion resistance to protect in humid, damp and even wet conditions.
The tacky nature of SAPPHIRE Aqua 2 ensures it adheres strongly to components to resist water wash-off and even tidal flows in salt water environments.
