WinRoast® 2.2 Features

Benefits of quality lubrication products are diminished before use if cleanliness is compromised during storage and transfer. Lubricant storage and dispensing containers have often been a weak link in lubricant integrity; however the development of containers that prevent contamination and spillage are available.

 
Oil Safe® Storage Lids, Drums, and Accessories

Fluid Life has partnered with Oil Safe® to prevent contamination and spillage by providing a specially designed and manufactured range of oil storage lids, drums and accessories as well as ultra clean bottles. Specific product descriptions and drawings are listed below:

The diameter of the outlet is approximately 7mm (9/32"). Like all Oil Safe lids the Mini Spout is fully interchangeable with each of the drum sizes in the Oil Safe range.
