Lewiston, Minn. – (April 10, 2024) – Fluoramics, a premier provider of thread sealants, greases, lubricants and corrosion control products to the oil, gas, and energy industries, exhibit in Booth 1165 at Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), May 6 – 9, 2024 at NRG Park, Houston, TX.
Fluoramics is internationally recognized for its HinderRUST, LOX-8, and Tufoil Technology brands of products.
New to the show this year is HinderRUST: Cable & Metal Rust Protector. This sprayable version of HinderRUSTrust stopper provides penetrating protection against rust and corrosion. Use Cable & Metal Rust Protector on equipment maintenance, tools, and metal storage. It is an ideal solution for the offshore industry as it is manufactured without solvents which means it is safe to use everywhere, including in enclosed spaces. Application is easy with a hand or garden sprayer.
HinderRUST is available in a variety of formulas and packaging. All of which are non-toxic and non-flammable. Being solvent-free and non-hazardous, they are safe to use everywhere and will not evaporate over time. The chemistry is both water-displacing and self-repairing. It remains mobile and fills voids created by nicks, scratches, or dents.
Unlike most other rust inhibitors, HinderRUST is based on engineered chemistry that makes it an incredibly effective rust stopper. All HinderRUST products are surface active through a chemical process known as adsorption which spreads the product across the surface of metal and forms a molecular adhesion to the surface. Adsorption creates a thin film of HinderRUST on metal surfaces which make it much more difficult to wear off.
"We’re excited about bringing sprayable HinderRUST Cable & Metal Rust Protector to OTC. We continue to develop and leverage our chemistries to help industries save money, and to improve processes, quality, and product life cycle,” said Gregg Reick, Fluoramics’ President and Chief Chemical Engineer.
Also featured at OTC is non-flammable LOX-8 Lubricant, formulated for wet and dry conditions and safe for use with harsh chemicals and gases, making it the perfect lubricant to use on valves, O-rings, gaskets, gears, motors, and bearings. The thread sealant variation, LOX-8 Thread Sealant, is the must-have sealant for working with industrial gases, cryogenic liquids, and aggressive chemicals including oxygen and chlorine. Both LOX-8 products prevent stainless steel galling.
Fluoramics’ products are great maintenance items for the offshore energy arenas as they are solvent-free, non-flammable, and low-VOC, making them ideal for the oil, gas, and wind energy industries.
