Did you know there are many options to consider when selecting thermal fluids?

Temperature is Everything – match your bulk temperature but also consider film temperature, heater type
Controlling Oxidation – high temperature air exposure can destroy the wrong fluid quickly
Maximizing Fluid Life – short-term or long-term use – invest wisely
Availability is Critical – thermal fluids are often critical to production – how long can you wait for your thermal fluid to ship?

Since the switch to Duratherm (from Ucon 500), we have increased the time between oil changes and nearly eliminated any issues. The price of Duratherm (thermal fluid) is not only less expensive by the drum, but the longer life saves money in the long run. I would recommend it to anyone using Ucon 500.
