Textiles
Textile equipment operates under some of the harshest environmental conditions including moisture, high speeds, dust, chemicals and high temperatures. Our products are designed to give unequaled performance in virtually any application under operating conditions that vary from normal to severe.
Lubrication Engineers use highly refined 100% paraffinic and synthetic base oils. These oils have vastly superior lubricating characteristics-greater oxidation resistance, tougher film strength, better lubricity and greater compatibility with hoses and seals.
Our own additive research and manufacturing company continually develops more effective and efficient high technology additives proprietary to Lubrication Engineers. All this technology is incorporated into our lubricants so that they are the finest available. These additives include ALMASOL®, MONOLEC®, QUINPLEX® and DUOLEC ™.

For anti-friction and plain bearings operating under shock loads, high speeds or areas where vibration may occur, such as synthetic fiber extruders, shearing and raising machines and spinning and twisting machines. And for anti-friction and plain bearings operating at high temperatures and exposed to chemical corrosion, dust and dirt such as those found in fans, carding machines, bleach ranges, tenter ovens, dryers, slashers, steamers, washing and mercerising machines and bath and circulating systems on calendars, we recommend:
- 1250 & 1251 ALMASOL® High Temperature Lubricant
- 1274 & 1275 ALMAPLEX® Industrial Lubricant
- 3750, 3751, 3752 ALMAGARD® Vari-Purpose Lubricant
- 4700, 4701, 4702 MONOLEC® Industrial Lubricant
- 9320, 9460 MONOLEC® Synthetic Industrial Lubricant
For spur and bevel gear drives, high speed cam boxes, worm gears, differential gears, harmonic drives in robotics, spinning and twisting machine drives, finishing machines and tenter frames, synthetic fiber extruder drives and thrust bearings, sewing machines, or for equipment operating under shock loads, high vibration, high speeds, start and stop conditions, axial thrust and unbalanced loads and high ambient temperatures we recommend:
- 1601-1609 DUOLEC™ Vari-Purpose Gear Lubricant
- 4023, 4024, 4025 QUINPLEX® Food Machinery Lubricant
- 4090 & 4140 QUINPLEX® White Gear Lubricant
- 5100A PYROSHIELD®
- 9102A SYNTEMP® Synthetic Lubricant
- 6105, 6110, 6120, 6520 MONOLEC® Hydraulic Oil
- 6401 - 6407 MONOLEC® R & O Compressor/Turbine Oil
- 6801 - 6807 MULTILEC® Industrial Oil
