Antifriction and OilSafe
OilSafe is the brand name under which lubrication manufacturer, Whitmore, distributes its lubrication management, control and condition monitoring products.
Based in the United States, Whitmore Manufacturing is a trusted supplier with more than 100 years of experience in manufacturing industrial lubricants.
Whitmore’s brand OilSafe, offers customers a range of ‘reliability products’ which ensure the safe use of industrial lubricants onsite. Antifriction is proud to be an authorised distributor of OilSafe’s essential, high-quality products.
Lubricant management and more
OilSafe’s extensive catalogue includes a range of products to help with lubrication management, contamination control, storage and machine condition monitoring. The brand also offers a range of accessories to help organise and keep lubricants safely stored. These include fluid safety cabinets constructed of 16-gauge steel with reinforced double walls and a heavy-duty mobile storage cabinet.
As an authorised distributor of OilSafe, Antifriction can provide customers with access to the brand’s full range of lubrication management products. OilSafe aims to help customers utilise industrial lubricants in the safest and most cost-effective way, avoiding contamination, spills and waste reduction.
Industry-leading desiccant breathers
As well as its lubrication management products, OilSafe is renowned for its industry-leading Air Sentry desiccant breathers. OilSafe set the standard for contamination control in the manufacturing industry, when it introduced the Air Sentry series in 1997. Since then the brand has continued to improve its innovative contamination control product.
Most recently OilSafe introduced the Air Sentry GUARDIAN desiccant breather series. Notably, the GUARDIAN series is constructed from Tritan, a material that is highly resistant to impact and chemicals with a wide range of operating temperatures. The series also comes with a number of optional add-on features, allowing customers to customise each product to more closely meet their needs.

OilSafe is part of Whitmore, a world-leading manufacturer of industrial lubricants. In 2015, Whitmore adopted a sustainable development programme across all of its global brands. As part of this programme, Whitmore is currently focused on developing renewable and more eco-friendly products for the lubrication industry.

Developing for the future
In recent years, Loctite has put considerable research and investment into reviewing and reducing the environmental impacts of its products. Most recently the brand produced a new and improved range of adhesives, free from the chemical Hydroquinone (HQ). HQ is a chemical that can be harmful to human health and toxic to marine life. Most commercially available adhesives contain at least one or more chemicals that are classified as carcinogenic.
Loctite aims to be a pioneer in developing adhesives that are less harmful to both people and the planet. Visit the sustainability pages of Henkel, Loctite’s parent company here to read more. One of Antifriction’s core values is sustainability, and working with like-minded suppliers is one way we pursue sustainable growth whilst being mindful of our environmental impact.
