    TODCO introduces TODCO FG Lube, a more environmentally friendly, custom-made lubricant designed specifically for overhead truck doors. Thanks to its advanced foodgrade quality formula, the new product will lubricate springs, rollers, bearings, hinges, and locks as effectively as the original TODCO Lube, with minimal environmental impact.

    This new lube is registered as an H1 lubricant with the United States Department of Agriculture. It contains no petroleum distillates, and all its ingredients are considered foodgrade. H1 lubricants may be used in food-processing environments where incidental food contact is possible.

    The lube will be packaged in recyclable plastic 16-ounce refillable pump spray bottles, as opposed to the former 16-ounce spray cans powered by aerosol propellants and containing only about 12 ounces of lubricant. The new lubricant may also be purchased in a recyclable plastic gallon container with a separate reusable sprayer or in a 55-gallon drum.
