Frequently Asked Questions
What lubricant should I use?
Use the lubricant that matches the equipment manufacturer's specification, viscosity requirement, operating temperature, load, and service interval.
What is the difference between oil and grease?
Oil flows through systems and reservoirs, while grease stays in place because it combines oil with a thickener and additives.
What is DEF?
DEF, or diesel exhaust fluid, is a urea and water solution used in selective catalytic reduction systems to reduce diesel NOx emissions.
Do fleets need more than one lubricant?
Yes. Fleets often need engine oil, transmission fluid, gear oil, grease, coolant, DEF, and shop supplies.
Can Energy Oil & Grease provide product help?
