Summit Food Grade products are listed by NSF^®  for H-1 application (lubricants with incidental food contact) and comply fully with the requirements of FDA 21CFR 178.3570.

Most of our Food Grade products are also Kosher.

FG Series

Summit FG Series lubricants are specially designed for rotary screw, vane and reciprocating compressors being used in the food service industry. These lubricants are listed by NSF®   for H-1 application (lubricants with incidental food contact) and comply fully with the requirements of FDA 21CFR 178.3570.

The FG Series lubricants are formulated from the highest quality synthesized hydrocarbon fluids available. The special additive system is blended with the synthetic base-fluid to provide extended lubricant life and to protect against wear, rust and corrosion. FG Series lubricants are extended life lubricants and have the same software compatibility as Summit SH^® Series Lubricants.

FG-100 is designed for use in rotary screw compressors and applications requiring an ISO-32 lubricant. FG-200 & FG-250 are designed for use in rotary screw compressors and other applications requiring an ISO-46 or ISO-68 lubricants. FG-300 is designed for use in reciprocating compressors, rotary vane compressors and other applications requiring an ISO-100 lubricant.  FG-500 is designed for use in reciprocating compressors and general lubrication applications requiring an ISO-150 lubricant.

All grades are Kosher approved.

Available as: FG-100, FG-200, FG-250, FG-300, FG-500

SBL Food Grade

Summit SBL FG synthetic lubricants are formulated to provide maximum lubrication protection and service for all positive displacement blowers including Roots, Gardner-Denver, Sutorbilt, Duroflow and MD.  Advantages over petroleum lubricants include extended lubricant life (up to 8,000 hours with oil analysis), reduced operating temperatures, better corrosion protection, enhanced low and high temperature lubricating properties, longer blower life with reduced wear, and lower maintenance costs.  The SBL synthetic lubricants exceed the specification requirements for all of the major manufacturers of positive displacement blowers and are compatible with most commonly used seal materials.

 In applications where food contact might occur, the Summit SBL-220F and SBL-320F meet the requirements of FDA21CFR 178.3570 and are Kosher approved.

These products are listed by NSF®   and have Kosher approval.
