Save oil & money!


You've always had a choice to make with leftover lubricants lubricants

preparations for the lubrication of passages to reduce frictional injury, e.g. oily preparations, including petroleum jelly, lanolin or water-soluble preparations such as methyl cellulose.
. You could throw away what's left (expensive) or keep it for next time and run the risk of contamination and equipment damage (even more expensive).

Now you have another choice: You can keep those leftovers in portable containers specifically designed for storing, transporting and transferring oil and other lubricants. The containers prevent contamination, help avoid costly and dangerous spills, and make lube tasks much easier, safer and faster.

The containers come in four sizes:
