Klüber Lubrication has introduced Klüberfood 4 NH1-46, the only NSF H1-registered fully synthetic hydraulic oil that is approved for use on Husky injection molding equipment.

Compared with mineral hydraulic oils, Klüberfood 4 NH1-46 reduces contaminant build-up and valve blockages, resulting in longer oil change intervals and lower operating costs in hydraulic systems.

Husky Injection Molding Systems has approved Klüberfood 4 NH 1-46 in its range of injection-molding machines for use on all generations of Husky machines.

"After a successful two-year test, we were pleased to see that our oil met or exceeded all of the performance criteria for both Husky and the end-user,” said Kimberly Eldridge, food market manager, Klüber Lubrication North America L.P. “Our product is now the only NSF H1-registered synthetic oil to attain Husky approval."

Klüberfood 4 NH 1-46 was designed to provide good oxidation stability and overall stability at extreme temperatures, from minus 40 degrees C to 135 degrees C. It also offers protection against friction and wear.

In addition, Klüberfood 4 NH1-46 is compatible with all materials that are resistant to mineral oil, including neoprene, NBRE, FPM, PTFE, paints based on acrylic and epoxy resin, nylon (polyamide) and PVC.
