Key technologies

Pioneering XTL technology for a new generation of automotive lubricants that provides significant progress in the field of consumption reduction. Products on the basis of the newly developed XTL technology impress with better cold start behavior and lower consumption in terms of both fuel and oil, while at the same time offering excellent aging stability and operational reliability. XTL is an innovative formulation technology with optimized fluidity properties and unique viscosity-temperature behavior. FUCHS is a driver of innovation in this field.

With its CPX technology, FUCHS set a milestone in corrosion protection at the start of 2012. A revolutionary technology in the field of wax preservation. CPX increases the period of corrosion protection and optimizes the manufacturing process with its gel-like film behavior.

A special product in terms of sustainability is the newly developed RENOLIN Xtreme Temp 46. Thanks to its special composition, it displays fuel saving potential of 3% to 6% in mobile hydraulics applications.

With its ANTICORIT CPX range, FUCHS has developed a new formulation category for long-term corrosion protection (10 years). This new wax system guarantees controlled runoff inhibition, both at increased temperatures and at normal ambient temperatures, without compromising penetration into gaps and flanges. It also easy to remove. Individual parameters – such as drying time, run-off tendency, period of corrosion protection and film flexibility – can be customized according to customer requirements. CPX technology is extremely versatile and suitable for a whole host of different applications, whether cavity protection, long-term warehousing or transport protection.

With the cooling lubricant ECOCOOL GLOBAL 10, we have succeeded in catering to the various requirements and release specifications within the aerospace industry. The product, developed specifically for machining aluminum and titanium alloys, complies with legislation in 19 leading aerospace countries. It is free from DEA, TEA, DCHA, chlorine, formaldehyde, silicone and boron and is highly resistant to microbiological contamination. In addition to this, it boasts excellent hard water stability, does not tend to form foam and is also designed for use with very soft water. The cooling lubricant has passed comprehensive laboratory tests in line with the machining protocols of leading aerospace companies and was able to confirm the high expectations of international customers in many field tests.
