We are pleased to offer the Hydrotex® Principles of Lubrication class.
[/wc_box]
This generic 2 hour class has been developed and will be presented by Hydrotex experts. This class is based on the Hydrotex® Lubrication University Qualification 3-day Course, specifically to train our Lubrication Consultants, our Division Partners and our Customers. You will learn the most current application procedures, product knowledge, industry changes, upcoming mandates and environmental issues in the Lubrication Industry. Upon completion, you will have more lubrication product and application training than most Engineering school graduates!
You will leave knowing grease is NOT just grease and oil is NOT just oil. You will understand how vital it is to utilize the correct lubrication for specific equipment, load, environment, temperature and speed. Test results, images, case studies and demonstrations will display exactly what WILL happen when the wrong products or wrong application procedures are utilized.
